You know, the Warhound looks like they ran out of parts, so they threw in some SCV parts in there...maily the body @.@

looks awesome though. I love the Zerg units =D

my only disapointment is .... if the swarm host is "like the lurker"

I would much rather just have the lurker .... its much cooler

I don't see how this poll is a good idea as no one has seen the damn units in the game and there are already haters. ridiculous.

the "shredder" sounds like it is meant to replace spider mines. The warhound is a goliath.

I can't help but feel that they can just save a lot of trouble by simply putting back the real deal without all this roundaboutness.

I'm a little worried about the shredder in tvz. imagine a few of those spinning in front of siege tanks for marine/tank/shredder timings.

A fleet beacon unit killing a T2 unit? MY GOD!

I wonder what tech the oracle is, we kind of already have great scouting from the observer, is it going to be like a very early c-core tech scout?

I'm impressed everyone is able to theorycraft so well based on some friggin poster boards.

Like seriously... nobody has any idea how the units will even work, what other changes will be made, upgrades added, etc.

It is one thing to speculate, but quite another to actually get upset or talk balance at this point.

Why are all the Protoss units so wierd and gimmicky? xD.

Prefer a Arbiter/Reaver any1?

Furthermore, I think the Collosi should be removed! (Zorgaz -Terran/AbrA-Random/Zorg-Dota2) Guineapigs <3

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?

Happiness.

I don't really follow Blizzard on the Protoss unit

Obviously the Oracle is meant to be the Protoss harassment unit, but unless it can actually KILL something, I don't see it being used too often, the Protoss army is already weaker due to the necessity of Sentries, and combined with Replicants (Which I'm assuming can't attack until they replicate into something) I don't see Protoss being effective cost-for-cost.

On top of that, the Tempest (If it does replace the Mothership) will be another Stargate unit that sees little to no play, due to cost and effectiveness in battle.


What Protoss unit rapes everything on the ground so badly that a handful of them can make a 150/200 Toss army smash a 200/200 zerg or terran army? (Collosus)

What are the primary counters to collosus? (Ctrl Grouped Vikings and Corrupters)

What would be a really good way with dealing with groups of vikings/corrupters/mutas? (Massive air AoE damage from Tempest)

Who should stop crying? (You)

First of all, the Tempest is obviously the response from Blizzard at the fact that Vikings/Corrupter not only counter Colossi, but Stargate play as well.

Second, the Tempest does bonus damage against LIGHT air units, which includes neither Colossi or Vikings, add the long range of Vikings, and the bonus damage to massive from Corrupters, and on paper, the Tempest seems to get countered by Vikings and Corrupters.
