My worry is they're introducing more things that are diffucult to patch without removing or just destroying the unit itself, there are very few tweaks they can make without destroying it's usefulness (see: neural parasite). | ||

No hes whining because Protoss got screwed. Again. Super gimicky, high gas, expensive, situational units that do nothing to address the problems in the current game. | ||

I think you never read the most important post on the thread... I could explain it to you but it would be a wast of time for a QQer that anyways will not maybe read even this lol Viper is not for "preventing escape" , it is designed to brake contains for example | ||

Automatically deactivates when your units come close to shredders WHY DEACTIVATE?!? FRIENDLY FIRE IS EXCITING!!!! And why the heck should Protoss get detection for all branches of the tech tree? How is that exciting? | ||

Right, it's totally impossible to make the pseudo dark swarm&pulling stuff an upgrade and Blizzard will leave zergs in their base with their sporecrawlers until spire finishes. | ||

Ignore the balance of it because you can just adjust balance assuming its not there and think about what it forces the protoss army to be. They have to be clumped up in one big ball to maximize the collosus' tight area of dmg favoring only small harass instead of full on multi pronged attacks. | ||

Phase shift should just be stasis and should have a small AOE. As for the mineral blocking thing... it COULD work really well, as long as the spell has a massive duration and tons of hitpoints. If it's as bad as contaminate is, they may as well not even bother. | ||

Hellibats: this opens up so much potential for T I'm a bit baffled by all the negativity. I guess most T wanted another new unit instead? Honestly though, you mass hellions right? You can take out bases and wipe out mineral fields and shit, right? Now you can also literally rush back all the way from opp base to home when you see a swarm of lings coming out of the opp base and "mount up" and deal. Sounds pretty sick to me. Thor -> Warhound: this is such a buff. Try massing thors and making them go up that ramp, navigate around those buildings to get to those mutas harassing your mineral line. Warhound with less dps doesn't make a lick of diff cause you'll have MORE of them over the same space and for the same amount of resources. Viper: (sorry in advance if someone mentioned this but I wrote this reply around page 180) Who the hell said it DOESN'T come out of lair? Someone said it is LAIR TECH but that only means you need a lair to build it. NOWHERE is it said it doesn't come from Spire, like (most) other flyers. What am I missing? I sure hope I am, but seriously, a unit this powerful that comes out of a lair with no building req is ridiculous. But if it comes out of spire Z are doomed to eternal DT rush hell like said before (and yeah, spores are nice, but you're going from "z have spores and overseers at lair" to "z have spores" which is downright counter to what Blizz is saying they wanna fix (early game scouting to prevent all the bloody cheese wins). Edit: the obvious answer to the Viper thing is that it comes out of a new building that doesn't take as long as spire to build. D'oh. | ||

Also battle hellions? really youd rather have transformer then just putting firebats in the barracks? protoss is worst of all... you both admit to being zerg players, please try and think beyond that. (also, i worry about detection too, but i guess vipers will just be essential now) | ||
