The problem is not defensive detection, its offensive. There's going to be a huge window where the zerg can't move out. This also obliges the zerg to go infestation pit if the opponent makes DTs. This really does sound bad. | ||

Also the other races get new unique units? The shredder is just another "siege mode" unit so basically its just another siege tank, and the "battle hellion"... its just a hellion that can transform, big deal. They are the exact same units with different names. | ||

Zerg in essence got defilers and lurkers. Terran got bigger versions of spider mines (shredders) and firebats (battle hellions) Protoss got a souped up corsair/banshee mix unit. Going to be crazy. So excited :D:D:D | ||

Seriously though, doesn't Protoss have enough spells already? Their entire race has spells now, they should just get some beefy terran-ish units. I mean we (terran) get 3 units that don't really have spells, and many of our other units dont have spells either, nor does the zerg. But Protoss just has a quadrillion of them, does that make any sense? Terran units - boring but looks ok Zerg units - cool but could possible be a bit imbalanced Protoss units - too much shine and polish, not enough dirt and gravel | ||

Zerg (already lowest unit count) loses a unit to gain 2. Protoss loses a unt to gain 3. And Terran loses nothing to gain 2 + a hellion conversion. Did Zerg just come out on the short end of the stick in the Zerg expansion? | ||

Also, Hellions are used to by Terran to gain early map control and limit Zerg movement for a short while, why shouldn't DTs be able to be used in the same way? ^^ | ||

Pulling one unit is not that great for almost the entire mana pool (100 mana). In fact it's almost like the neural parasite, it's not ground breaking. The real power of the viper is the dark swarm like spell. this is true and not true. the dark swarm spell will obviously be the most powerful in TvZ for example, but the pulling ability is also great. the main advantage of colos is its range which allow it to atk from behind a army and stay relativily safe and unharmed. if u pull the colo from behind those safe lines and in melee range of ur main zerg army u can target fire the colos and get rid of them almost insantly. same thing with siege tanks. very very good ability. | ||

People are concerned about the game they played in a competitive fashion for 13 months. If that is not the case for you, it is your problem, not theirs | ||
