I hope that's not all the units, would make me kinda sad if Z gets less than the other 2 in the Z expansion when Z already has the least ammount of actual units. :/ Still look pretty awesome though and I can't wait to see those units in action.


+1

I'm quite surprise, Blizzard rejects to equal the amount of units in each race, and in fact it makes it worse adding less units to the race with the less amount, its not logical, hope someone can ask it on Blizzcon, I really want to hear the excuse for this.


well that battle hellion is just an ability added to hellions (same unit). Those goliaths are probably going to replace thors.

What I dislike is how gimmicky the protoss units are. The race has always been gimmicky - warpgates, colossus/storm, archon toilet... Now we have more fancy abilities without actual units that do good in battle.

Tempest sounds like something that gets smashed by Vikings.


Except it has an AoE air attack which would be very bad for viking clouds.


Viking are armored and it does dmg agaisn't light. Viking probably will have longer range and faster movement speed as the Tempest is a capital ship.

yeah everyone votes no for terran units, hey ppl, these units will probably be for campaign only, maybe just 1 will be added to multiplayer to replace a different unit.


It says multiplayer on the top of the poster.

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

We get to use any unit our opponent has against them, I'm not complaining.

I like the Viper, Shredder, and the Tempest.

Rest of the units seem out of place...

Very little info, so I'm not saying anything final...but judged from what was leaked, the Terran got the worst deal.

Boring units which role overlaps with already existing boring units? While Zerg and Toss are getting new spellcasters and the like? Fuck .

I don't understand the use of the replicent, and wtf is the point of the oracle. Is it just an earlier game observer or something? The capital ship just looks like more junk countered by vikings or corrupters.

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



How is magic boxing a 'bug' ?

I guess splitting marines and any other forms of micro should be considered 'bugs' as well.

So does killing workers. And that has the added bonus of making them spend more money to recover.

Depending what they take out of the game for protoss. The protoss could become even more rediculous to manage in micro management engagements.

This looks promising. Never occurred to me before, but I hope the infestor gets replaced. I hadn't considered that until I saw these new zerg units. I also have hope for Thor and Mothership replacements with these units.

3 for Toss

3 for Terran and 2 for Zerg.

Whaaaaa.

Does Terran need the units? But then will the Thor go in favor of the hellhound. The tempest in favour of void rays?

The protoss units look the coolest imo. Their abilities are the most mysterious.

Zerg sounds the best by far.

Terrans look like they got the short end of the stick for once :p
