Notice how many zerg replays where the zerg gets a fast 3rd vs protoss because his expansion timing means he wasnt going 1 base DTs. As long as its 1 gate expand or FFE or nexus first or even 3 gate expand but that would be trickier to spot than you can have the spores at the 3rd before the DTs are even out. | ||

Nope. control = psi/etc. try using infestors to neural a probe/scv and building up a 400/400 army. When I last checked they all share the same max supply. 200. | ||

By the time a zerg would take a third lair tech should at least be on the way. The only time a zerg wouldn't have lair would be a super fast third against a FFE or whatever, and a FFE would set back DT tech and the third would be finished and spores could be placed before the DTs would come. | ||

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. Only about 40 people have thought of that in this thread. It's so cost inefficient that it's laughable. | ||

At this point I like MOST everything I see. 3 things I really dislike are the replicant, viper abduct ability AND the shredder. These units/abilities just don't seem like they belong in SC2..... Also I think from a viewership standpoint I don't think they are good for esports, makes things complicated and just doesn't fit SC2. It also seems Blizzard is just asking for pro players to break this game by bringing in some of these new units. Trust the community and cut some of these units/abilities in question.... NOBODY wants to play a broken expansion and have to wait a year+ for LOTV for Blizzard to be able to remove units and make drastic changes. | ||

The game isnt even out yet... there WILL be a beta. They added many units that will raise the skill ceiling. Move on, BW is not going to happen and if you cant back this as an ESPORT what the hell can you support? | ||

They dont want to add a proper harrasment unit for protoss because zerg and terran already has so many units that kill workers. so instead, they add a unit that only can deny mining time for a specific amount of time. While Terran gets the shredder that can kill an entire mineral line in one blast. does this make sense to you? im sorry that my first post here turned into such a whiny one but im seriously dissapointed. i like the replicator and the tempest though. | ||
