All we've heard on it is that it has a speed upgrade so far. Also, the marine. Any chances to it's hp/range/dmg/cost/etc??? | ||

Still, wouldn't hurt to have them lying around but I doubt you would ever get to use them until the late game, where you can afford spending 200/200 to copy a unit. Probably crap against Terran but looks like it will be amazing against Zerg, provided the new Zerg units aren't massive I guess you could turn them into a small flock of voidrays to snipe expansions and then put them back in your army as immortals. Stuff like that might be nice to have as an option... but for 200/200 they probably won't be seen very much in pro play. | ||

But units that tell you what the enemy is making? How the hell is that exciting? If this ever becomes an SC2 staple it won't even be exciting for the Protoss player. Nice unit art design though. | ||

It's easy to see how the new abilities will be used in PvZ and PvP, but it's less clear how good they'll be in PvT. | ||

Meh, perhaps I'm just being too conservative here. I guess I will withhold any serious judgement until I've actually seen these ting in proper action. | ||

It also feels a bit like War3 , (portal back to main) ... and I don't really like that. Maybe the nexus should be destroyed after the recall, because as it is, Protoss will either recall away in the lategame or win the fight. | ||

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 To be fair, you were looking at 3 Tempests that cost 900/900 total against at least 2000/2000 in mutalisks. What did you want to happen? | ||

Gimmicky would be like DT rush vs Zerg, less and less common as the metagame shifts, not like the Terran thing. Well we're talking about gimmicky units, not gimmicky strats. Plus, I'm pretty sure the word 'gimmicky' had been used a billion times to describe both the Lurker and the Baneling before players got their hands on them and realized how awesome they are. | ||
