Does zerg has 3rd unit as well or not? Maybe jsut not seen in picture?


Looking a design of the poster, i don't think z has a third unit.

Also i'm picturing hilarious pvp's where both players go mass replicant and can never attack each other because there's nothing to clone.

So Terran already has the most units in the game, and gets 3 more? Blizzard is fucking retarded.


Some units will be removed of the game (probably marauder)


That would kill bio.

And all would rejoice.


They can't just get rid of the marauder. They would need to replace it, but the units shown are all to redesign mech. Thor is more than likely dead.

Looks like warhound replaces thor, and tempest replaces void ray. Or at least I can't imagine these pairs co-existing, as they overlap too much.

Don't like how most of this is recycled same old; also the hellion battle mode seems highly unnecessary. All-in-one units are anti-RTS, it's more interesting to have to dedicate to specific purpose when building some kind of units. Meh.

On the positive side, I appreciate the AOE abilities, and semi-stationary units that will introduce new leapfrog tactics. The spirit of defilers, lurkers, dark archons, and to some extent spider mines, is somewhat represented here, which is good. More BW-alignment is always good, even under new names.

sorry bro,it seems too much to ask,on the bright side,use replicator to make imba army of other races.

Hm, maybe the Viper could replace Brood Lords as a T3 unit, similar to the T3 Defiler.

And throw the Swarm Host somewhere in T2 as a semilurker.

I'd dig it.


Sounds good to me, broods are boring anyway. + Darkswarm will make ultras work better

As a Toss I would like some more info on the Oracle and Replicant, they sound either amazing or useless and I can't imagine a middle ground.

The zerg units looks great but the terran units (except for shredder) essentially look like compromises between other existing units?

Please everyone hold in your complaints until you see some gameplay of the units at least.

Keep in mind that this is from a Alpha build, where everything is subject to change. Thanks


Im seeing a lot more excitement and positive comments than complaints.

I hope the first image is just cut off.



I hope so aswell.....but Blizzards Dev are P/T lovers


Did you actually look at the units?

You get two completely new units. Protoss most likely has a replace for the mothership or carrier, and we got a transforming hellion (which will obviously replace the hellion), and a unit which will almost definitely replace the Thor.




yeah i did...
I remember some blizz saying corrupter gets replaced so we only get +1 unit -.- The swarm host as a siege unit....
Maybe we have to wait for blizzcon panel to start to be sure which race gets what...

All the units look pretty cool and have awesome abilities. Only thing that slightly irks me though is how the warhound looks like a scv, but with guns as arms and legs. Overall though, looking pretty good.

Can't wait for more to be revealed at Blizzcon.
