Why does blizzard have such a hardon for making good splash damage mobile... There's a reason the only [semi]mobile [semi]splash unit in BW was the firebat.

According to joshsuth, dark swarm isn't really dark swarm. It's disruption web from the corsair.

What kind of unit would a protoss clone that would let a non atking unit get into melee range and clone its self and let it get away?

from that reddit thread it's not actually dark swarm, it's disruption web. It doesn't prevent ranged damage, it prevents whatever units are under it from executing ranged attacks.

wut....wut..

They should give us a Gandalf unit then that blasts "You shall not pass!", a sound which has priority over all other sounds, freezes the game for a cutscene, and autowins for the casting player.

am i really the only one that likes this addition? lol

I will edit the sound files to make the tempest say "Carrier has arrived!" cause that is all I will miss from carriers.

Description:

The new nexus defensive ability seems to be decent for super early game, not much else. Basically you can cast it on any of your structures and it gives it a weak attack. Artosis built a pylon in my mineral line and cast the new spell on it. My SCVs killed it and it only managed to take one SCV to 5 health.

Edit: Oh, this proves that the Mothership is dead. RIP.

Well, that makes me sad.

So as protoss we can now clone an SCV and build a CC? Finally... we have MULES on our side.

Dustin screws the Zergs yet again! First off the Zerg gets 2 units while everyone else gets 3... sigh.

Dustin helps out the terran by deciding to get rid of the one crux the hellion had. which was their durability. He then upgrades the Thor so it does better against Mech Units. Then decides to give the terran a lurker type unit so he can shut down a whole path way with his shredders whirlwind of doom.

Then for toss he basically upgrades the observer to see every upgrade, unit being built, allow it to harass workers and then corrupt buildings as well. Then he decides to give basically the voidray with AoE . I mean this units seems like it was tailored to be a muta killer. Also lets also have the protoss be able to you know duplicate any create that isn't massive so the can duplicate infestors to fungal growth Zerg units.

Then Dustin decides that the Zerg should get a burrowed broodlord, I mean same creature basically but under ground. Then finally lets just revamp the Raven for zerg and give it a type of Vortex. Then lets make both units look like they are Hydras so they most likely are upgrades from Hydra...

Basically Dustin decided to nerf Zerg and buff Terran/Toss as usual. It seems rather stupid to give the terran a unit, which functioned like a SC:BW unit, and then basically revamp 5 units to either buff them or give them to another race.


Are you serious?...

You've seen fucking pictures so far, nothing else. Stop jumping to conclusions.

Zerg QQ is neverending.


Just to balance things out! I'm a zerg, don't agree with his whining at all, from what I see so far I'm very happy with the new units :D

It is sad that such an iconic unit like the carrier got the axe instead of being fixed. However, this tempest unit sounds good for toss so far. Need to see that panel badly D; don't want to pay $40 just for one thing though -,-

It sounds neat, but I'm not going to pass judgement until I see it in action.

Yes. Always liked the idea of terrain that affects the gameplay.

I hope they will show some videos of the new units and possibly some new maps in the next few days.
