Use replicant to steal a SCV and repair all your crap! That's actually practical compared to building a command center. Not sure why everyone wants the lurker/reaver? I think marauders would destroy either of those units. They would be either horrible or OP in SC2. | ||

Also I'm quite sure this protoss "harass" unit is going to be extremely underwhelming. And that pulling thing, it's just stupid and doesn't fit in this game at all. | ||

Imagine an early replicate of a drone, morphing into a hatchery, get pool, get queen, and use the spawn larva mechanic only for drone production. basically, as soon as the game goes into real late game and you get several hatch with lets say only a roach warren, you can first max out with pure toss army. lose army, max out again with warp-in + max roach production both at once. I just found out even Something More Terrifying  A Protoss Could do this Have hidden hatcheries the protoss could Make Drones into millions of Spore Crawlers to do the extra Supply Trick where you can make Spore Crawlers then Cancel them After making units to go Past the 200/200 Supply Cap then The Protoss could dump all his Late Game Minerals into Mass Replicates and Mass Gate/way Robo Units Exceeding the 200/200 Supply Cap David Kim *Comes* Then the 300/300 Protoss DeathBall in the Game Rips the Heart out of the Swarm Think about it Seriously.

Incorporated evo chamber timing is what made DT expand's like the worst opening ever in PvZ. Well then it's harder for Z to expand. how are you going get a 3rd without mobile detection. | ||

Because me as any other reasonable person counted on blizzard having enough balls to scrap the marauder and colossus from the game. Well.Apparently not. | ||

Many units/abilities obviously will be reworked or adjusted. Many might not even pass the alpha phase. Just relax and let the people who are at Blizzcon doing a testing right now figure out what how the units are and give the feedback to Blizz, please? | ||

Either way the units are free. Thus they would be at least equally cost effective. The only point of these beefy infinite spawns would be tanking shredder dmg to kill them... But thats just a stupid purpose. This unit needs a bit o tweeking but not a terrible idea. Viper seems ok, but will need alot of testing because there are areas where problems could arise. moving burrowed banelings seems to be too good to be true... there must be a catch. Terran units are silly. I can see the point of hellion/firebat thing, but its a wierd way to solve the problem. Mech warrior is strange. Thor change is a bit wierd but not hurting anyone imo. Also the shredder seems hugely broken right now... Protoss... I just dont get it right now... duplicator wtf. They get a unit purely to defend against muta, now that mutas were a huge problem area for toss at higher levels. The oracle is just wonky will probably be changed or scrapped for different concept. I have no opinion on nexus abilities as I have yet to see them do anything. Strange changes, some good potential and some decent units, but aside maybe the viper... nothing great. | ||
