Does the Tempest replace the Mothership? I was hoping for lategame P spellcaster but the oracle thing look like robo and imba >.>

Very happy about new Z spellcaster of course :D

These protoss units are not what I have hopped for but whatever.
The most exciting thing as far as I can see is the addition to 3 new factory units and that means more factory centered play......and guess what that means?
I'm pretty sure at this point that marauders will be removed from the game finally.Thank.fucking.god.

Without knowing any of the details, of course, it seems there's potential to make protoss quite powerful as a defensive/reactive race...which seems a bit odd to me.

Develop a base of gateway units + replicants, then go crazy on econ and production facilities. React to incoming pushes by replicating + warping in whatever's needed at the time. If it would work that way (depending on a number of variables, like cost, time of morph, etc), it feels more zergy than protoss, but we'll see how things pan out.

here are my thoughts:

Viper = flying defiler, i'm not liking the "pull" ability... sounds like vortex for zerg, i can see this being super imba with fungal.
also, if the overseer was taken out for this (because it has detection)... omfg.
Swarm Host = wicked!

I'm a protoss player, and the added units look interesting.
Replicant: i assume we'll need more than one "fuse", and that it comes out of robo, so we'll see how much use they actually see (targetting spell casters, seige units, flying units etc would be good but maybe off a second robo mid-late game?)
Oracle: this one confuses the fuck out of me. its flying so from stargate, but its a spellcaster? we'll see how it goes when launch hits.
Tempest: well i remember the original tempest was a carrier lol, but i like this. i hope that it doesnt replace the mothership though...

Warhound: interesting, both thor and warhound have splash AA, makes me wonder if thor was removed? nice that they gave them a TvT unit for vs mech... even vsP i guess.
Battle Hellion: well we called it right? lolol.
Shredder: wtf?


when's HOTS out?

Remember that the Robo can also produce flying units. I don't think it'll be a stargate unit.

Also guys, these units will not be in the game. At least not in their current advertised state. Blizard is just releasing some concept units, will take the feedback they recieve from this thread, and then put those units into the game. Remember, alot of the units in SC2 alpha had really differant roles than they were given (The Phoenix had a shoot everything at once ability)

After further reflection:

Are you fucking joking?


Please show us the real HotS units and not the ones for Red Alert 9.

well the swarm host is the unit we expected isnt it?


Swarm host seems retarded. Only useful to create fodder for tank lines imo.

And what happens to your lings when the tanks are busy shooting broodlings from the burrowed swarm hosts?

Terribly dissapointed with no addition of flying terran units :s


Your air already fills every function in the game

Idd, terran is getting exactly what we need imo, factory units. I just hope the game will be balanced with both bio and factory in mind, compared to how it is now just balanced with bio in mind.

Protoss shouldnt replicate other races units. They are supposed to look down at the other races because of their tecnological surperiorty.
