The more I think about it the more I think that the "grant detection" spell from the viper is useless, 50/50 overseers are great now, and having to dump 200 gas to have mobile detection is just...
Please just bring overseers back.

That's what i was thinking as well. How are Zerg going to Move out of the Base When Protoss can have Dark Templars Before Spire Timing.

And Spire takes so long...

Right now i'm seeing Protoss going for DT rushes sniping the Spire and GG

This is actually pretty concerning. I'm sure Blizz wouldn't fuck Zerg like that though, not again


That's Very True this is an issue we should discuss in the Thread right now ....

Spore Crawler by the Spire.
No 3rd untill spire finishes? Protoss will rush to dt and expand like crazy due to the mapcontrol or just make suicide dts to kill all spores :/ this just doesnt seem right. You Get Spire Around 10 mins ready, But Toss gets Obsever so much faster ad Terran Has Scan

Not only that, but you have to wait to get energy to give a unit detection. The viper sounds cool in concept but is looking very lacking to me. Zerg loses contamination too.

Lol at people theorycrafting about units we don't even know all details yet and already calling the game imba. Seriously some of you need to get laid.



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


Omg if you're not whining then it means you don't play the game competetively and it's your fault.

Lol your logic is awful.

People are whining because they can. Nobody knows how the new units will effect the game at this point.

Are you serious...


No why, best spell Terran ever


Because ghosts are already amazing without the ability to completely shut down all robotics units? In that case why not give protoss reavers with non-glitchy scarabs since apparently we want a completely broken game.

Basicly with one Viper you get limited ammount of detection for free, you can use the detection buff on overlords.

You won't have to wait for it to have energy, it will spawn with enough I think. We don'T even know if it is infact coming out of the spire yet, maybe it will have it's own dedicated building. I think you are all overreacting.

From: http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/10/21/official-list-of-unit-changes-in-starcraft-iis-heart-of-the-swarm-expansion/

A new ability called Arc Shield has also been added to the nexus — this ability will temporarily add additional shield and building armor, as well as a weapon very similar to a photon cannon. The weapon does the same amount of damage as a regular photon cannon but only damages light units.


Why the hell wouldn't it be able to hit roaches, stalkers and marauders? Isn't one of the primary purposes to help defend an early expansion?

From what I understand, protoss replicators can replicate your own units. Can they "un-replicate"? Defend defend defend, replicate 6 sentries. Ok going on offensive now, 6 COLOSSUS! Oh my that is a lot of corruptors, better go 6 immortals instead. Build 1 void ray, get 7 instantly when the first pops out.

But will have to see how it really works. I'm really exited if the replicants can un-replicate. It would bring protoss some needed flexibility.

Nah, grant detection is permanent. Scans aren't.

I'm a little confused with the Tempest, it seems to be a direct counter to mutas, but I was never aware that mutas were that strong against protoss.


I don't know, there is nothing that gives me a bigger headache than muta harrass. Protoss can't leave groups of marines/Thors to chill in the main so you have to turtle to the max while the Zerg is pretty much free expand like crazy. Mutas are great for controlling PvZ, just not in straight up fights ^^
