Can you define "gimmicky" and "epic" to me, thanks.

so now every race has 3 casters? or are there more units going to be removed than already mentioned?

this viper pulling massive units just seems ridiculous. all of the new units are imba! except the terran ones. they are kinda lame

every unit just a watered down version of something we've already seen (and wanted).

seriously, those terran units are disgustingly ugly.



Also, i had to laugh in the preview whent eh mutas got hit with 3 "major aoe" attacks, and not one died, no did we see health bars lol

Like what happened with WoL, I don't think that most of these abilities will make the final cut of the game

Holy hell they actually look good!

Erm NO?

Map 1
Looks like you can shell the main (CC/...) from the 3rd with Tanks - also a possible 4th is really far away (even taking a 3rd is kinda dumb if you opponent is CW of you.

Map 2
If there's close spawn (i think there'll be) - one base play.

Map 3
This one indeed looks kinda good.

Carriers being gone just seems... wrong. It's been my favorite unit since 1999. Other than that, the changes look exciting. Obviously I'd need to see these in game to really assess the impact.

If you're going to remove the thor, REMOVE THE THOR. Don't just make it into another "one only" unit "a la mothership" and then take it out when Legacy of the Void comes out because it was a dumb gimmicky idea

massive thor is gonna pwn

Can you define "gimmicky" and "epic" to me, thanks.


Gimmicky usually means a unit that doesn't do damage, or only does damage in very specific ways (e.g. the Terran Whirlwindy thing that only does damage if YOU come to IT).

I can't wait to play HOTS! Some units there look really cool..but alot of the units look maby a little too specialized to serve a real purpouse, when you most of the time just need to get more stuff to win.Let's hope i'm sead wrong! Hope it's no C&C hijacking og SC2 either.
I like the burrowed siege-lurker kinda unit. Containment for all races should be possible midgame like in bw with tank, reaver and lurker.

It's unbelievable how many people are whinging about things they've never used or seen in any action. You people will moan about anything!!!

As a Protoss player I'm really excited by the Tempest, seems much more viable as a unit than the Carrier... 2 of them to counter a muta flock - curious about the ground weapon though, is it similar to a void ray?

Also the replicant offers so many possible options, really interested to see how that plays out

Grats to the Zerg! Some awesome sounding units there.

I'm so excited about HoTS. Up until today it really wasn't on my rader, but we're essentially getting a whole new SC2 experience! And in a few years, people will refer to "Vanilla" SC2 in horror I'm sure.

Thanks Blizzard for continuing to develop this wonderful game



counter mutas ? it costs 300/300 need stargate/fleetbacon, you will build this only in late game, zerg dont build mass muta in late game

to many changes for me, remember bw changes no removed units just added 2 for each race
