warhound will replace thor.

100% sure

Very likely considering Dustin Browder has said that the thor was a failure and it was considered for removal.

The warhound seems like a goliath/thor hybrid.


I have to agree. Thors look awesome but they are too sluggish. They are kind of random in the way they punish mutas or are overwhelmed by them--it's just not very interesting. It's a unit that completely snowballs one way or the other in a battle. It's funny how the changes are basically becoming more like SC1, at a glance--funny and probably good.

Oh my god, fuck, this is so awesome! Not only are these awesome new units, but judging from their abilities it seems they are clearly replacing some older units.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

Hello Protoss siege tanks and Protoss broodlords.

I'm psyched about the warhound. Reasonably-sized, micro-able thors!

So the Oracle has an ability which is very much like contaminate but also stops mining?
Gonna make me some of those! NO INCOME FOR YOU SON! Probably short duration on a long cooldown but still hilarious :D

Warhound looks so dumb. cool unit though.

Zerg

Flying Defiler
Lurker

Terran

Goliath with splash air damage
Hellion that turns into a toughened firebat
Zealot turned super-sayan?

Protoss
------------
Changeling that fights
Overseer
Flying Thor-meets-voidray

Presumably they are going to be removing the Thor then?


Not very accurate. The oracle looks like it is MUCH BETTER than the the overseer. It can actually stop mining ANd reveal what buildings are making. Kinda different

And one of the other terran units is just a transformed Hellion. You can switch it back and forth like a Viking.

Well that does make sense, Zerg was already low on units in comparison to other races. I believe they intend to keep the feel of the zerg swarm, less types of units, but more production.
