My thoughts exactly. I want to be able to make other players suffer from fucking up the way I suffer from fucking up. Which is to say a nice, big exploded mineral line, followed by an all-in attack to their inevitable death. | ||

You'll have time to run your workers away, but I'm picturing someone dropping a couple out of view, and having one go to each mineral line entrance and stop them from running away, like sentry drops. Come to think of it, that'd be AWESOME for the replicator! Replicate a shredder, and drop it with some sentries :D. | ||

As it stands, infinite zerglings will die to shredders covering a choke in 0.72 to 1.44 seconds depending on the exact pulse timing and when the lings enter, and roaches will take heavy damage trying to kill a decent number of them I don't want the game to become that mindless  I like the fact that I have to watch out for ling runbys. Come on blizzard... | ||

Looked like a 1 second deploy time, faster than seige tank/viking deployment ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/uQDyj.jpg) I heard somewhere it was an 8 second deploy time. Don't bother asking for proof lol I won't even see your post and I don't care. | ||

Which is to say a nice, big exploded mineral line, followed by an all-in attack to their inevitable death. The strength of the harass unit is in warping buildings out I think, not so much in the mineral harass. Shutting down tech entirely is going to be awesome. If I warp out a barracks out of existance temporarily while an attached tech lab is researching, does that cancel the research like lifting the barracks would? O.o | ||

You thought canon rushing was bad, now just need to do a normal build with and just warp in a pylon. Phoenix's, blink stalker and storm wasn't good enough to counter mutas, have some tempest. Mining, bah! You don't need that 2 oracles can disable 4 spores and 4 mineral patches. But hey, at least I can pull a colossus off a cliff. You're actually Kinda Right Surprised this Expansion wasn't named Legacy of the Void | ||

They also said they are working on this, and have especially radius and deploy time in mind, so don't panic guys. I actually think this fits the terran style quite well (zoning, methodical pushing... I only wish they'd remove hellions/marauders). | ||

Well apparently rumors are that the swarm things the swarm host poops out do 16 damage and have a 0.8something attack speed, so like 2x the dps of a +2 marine. Not bad. | ||
