Just from the unit previews I can't help but feel that protoss is getting shitty units, but only time can tell..

Unless oracle is quite low in the tech tree I don't see how it would ever be more useful than units that actually kill workers. How many people used the arbiter to stasis worker lines? Exactly ...

Protoss ground units? Hm...?


lol my bad. was meaning to refer to the units that weren't the tempest

Oracle's probably a flying unit. Replicant could be either air or ground.

How is the warhound different from the Thor, btw?

probably gonna be more like goliath, so not as slow and retarded like thor, faster anti air fire rate

mutas will still magic box and thus counter them, unless it's a different aoe

well or they'll be cheaper/less food so you can actually make more than 2


They will remove the magic boxing bug ... haha

dude all i want is an arbiter and a reaver, is that too much to ask for? the zerg units seem so simple and powerful in straight up fights as opposed to the p units -_-;.. we have too many random units


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


cool ill start doing replicator b.os so i can copy 1 baneling while i get ling/bane allined.. TOSS HAS TOO MANY FUCKING SPELLCASTERS FUCK THIS SHIT GAME IM RETIRING

The viper is awesome.

The swarm host would be awesome if it didn't directly overlap with the broodlord. Would have preferred ranged AoE.

Only 2 units for zerg maybe means the infestor will stay, i think fungal could be removed though for being the most boring spell
Also the oracle looks like what the overseer should have been


but fungal is the only spell you can use with your infestors after the neural nerv so i don't think it will go. i think zerg gets the two units in addition and the other two races will get units removed, cause they get three. maybe this units are not all that will come

So in my opinion the lategame/midgame will look like that (im not pretty sure because i dont know what units will be removed):
PvZ:
Swarm Hosts, Vipers, Ultra/ling vs Collosus/HT/replicant/zealot/stalker
TvZ
Swarm Hosts, Vipers, bane/ultra/ling vs Marines, medivacs, tanks, ravens for hsm and goliaths
PvT
We will see mech probably

To be honest i just dont like the names of the zerg units, they sound not "zergish".
I am also thinking that blizzard dont want to embarass, so they dont call hellhound a Goliath ;o
everybody hates pvp

SO SICK!

Zerg get's siege unit and freaking flying defiler, protoss gets harass unit, capital shit and marauders... honestly i'm gonna just mass replicant's vs terran lol.

And terran get's 2 useless units and some OP siege shit.

Ooh la la, dark swarm back for Zerg? Noice.
Can't wait for Tempest. I just hope the Carrier stays :T No matter how useless it is in WoL, it is still a unit by which the Protoss is identified since BW ((
Can't really say anything about the Terran units, don't really care about Terran tbh.
Can't wait for Bcon :D Gogo Protoss.
End my suffering

I see no reason to think units will be removed. When Brood War was released, units weren't removed to make room for the new ones.


Blizzard said so, that's reason enough.

I cant wait to see what oracle can do. protoss units are more technical, and harder to micro and use. I believe it is the way it should be

collosus is hard to use?

Ever micro in a colossus war?

lol yea "micro". ever play bw? collosus are a fucking joke. try using the shuttle and reaver, then we can talk about micro.

Replicant has the potential to be terrifying or just utter garbage... I'm seriously concerned about that.

Protoss units seem awfully gimmicky. Why add another capital ship instead of just making the ones they already have useful?

And seems like Terran will be mech all the way

I don't know why the polls are the way they are.

The two new zerg units seems really good, but I think zerg still need one more change to either corruptors or to hydralisks. Zerg still lacks a certain potency.

The protoss units are okay. I'm worried that if the new capital ship might be strong with it's anti air capabilties if it's put with a death ball, but time will have to tell. I think they could've done something with the colossi, but they didn't.

I think the terran ones are the best by far. No terribly drastic additions. Replacing the thor seems like a great move.

My biggest complain would be that the art seems extremely uninspired. Especially for the terran.

The tempest is a CAPITAL SHIP, its clearly there to replace the useless carrier.


Most likely also a unit named The tempest was in sc2 before but got replaced by carrier. (before game came out)

It doesn't mean what builds are being constructed (why would you need a special unit to see that anyway?), rather, what units are being made in that building.

isn't apolo british? just kind of funny he wouldn't understand that sentence

Nope, not the Apollo you're thinking of.
