Hmmm.. Actually now that I think about it. Maybe the Tempest is replacing the colossus. I really dont' see them getting rid of the Carrier and Mothership, and people don't like colossus anyways.

Sky toss inc?

At a first glance, very disappointing. Oh well I'll be playing Diablo 3 by then hopefully.

Terran's losing at least 1 unit in all likelihood, and it's only the campaign that's zerg centric.

How do you think the Protoss unit is going to see stuff making ? Do you think its going to be able to scan an area ? or something along those lines and reveal buildings making things ?

naming the capital ship tempest, which was the original name of the sc2 carrier, is a possible indication that carriers will be replaced....

Warhound seems suspiciously like a Thor, just with an anti-mech ground focus. I wonder if it's being traded for the Thor.

Same goes for the Oracle and Phoenix.

The oracle can reveal what structures are building.... just like... basic scouting?

I can't imagine they're removing the carrier, tempest likely will replace the mothership.

edit; also don't look like they're adding any new T1 units.

I think it'll be like this: if you see a factory building something, oracle will let you know wether it's a tank or a thor; if you see an armory upgrading, oracle will let you know whether it's +1 armor or weapons.

Warhound = more mech TvT? Maybe people will prefer them to marauders. Fuck I hope so.


Seems like Mech will be even more dominant in TvT with HotS.

They're only giving more versatile, powerful mech units. Not complaining, I like Mech TvT, just seems like It will be the only option for the matchup.

I remember Blizzard saying something like... "in a perfect world, we want to see both bio and Mech used in TvT..."

I think it's generally the case that Protoss units sound "wtf"-ish in theory until you use them and then you're like "sweet!".

That was me and sentries, especially.

Haven't you realized yet that Zerg is treated like Meg from Family Guy and Dewie from Malcom in the Middle?

Warhound does THE EXACT SAME THING A THOR DOES.
why are people even excited about it?

Sucks to have the same unit you already do but with diff graphics.

Cause i really cant wait to see the AoE on Colossi, Storm and Tempest


it says Tempest is a capital ship so it sounds like you can only have 1 like the mothership

1) they're getting less units removed
or
2) Blizz thinks giving 4-5 new units in the campaign makes up for that
