Im curious - 90hp hellions are already very difficult to deal with in larger-than-4/6 numbers, as they are only 100 minerals, are so fast and pretty much nothing has bonus damage to light from protoss, will there be any way to deal with these things aside from just massing stalkers and hoping they dont gain any hp from the transform?


90hp is 9 stalker shots and they dont have a lot of ROF, im also not looking forward to chargelots vs transformed hellions.

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


lol, probably. I'll give it a fair chance, but it's such a goofy addition to the game, I'll probably never be able to take it seriously.
Don't take me seriously, I'm no Pro. Neither are you.

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.


My hard on just got a little softer D;

still excited though, so far :D

Is the observer still in the game, or where does this random replicate unit come from?

Any building can become a cannon with a bonus to light.

Fuck. Yes.

not only is protoss can deny zerg 1st expansion by building pylon it can kill zergling and drones which is trying to kill pylon that block expo without having to build forge balance. If assumign pylon can use arc shield.


Its super weak i read somewhere, someone surrounded the pylon with scvs and it only got one scv to 5hp.

Laughing at ppl sad about the Carrier gone. The stupid thing couldnt be micro'd and probably the least used unit in the game except for the Mothership maybe. Good riddens. I came in my pants because of the new zerg units though..omfg...


They refused to buff it. They nerfed it to shit in WoL and scratched their heads as to why no one used it. They also made AoE the best mechanic ever with units clumping. It's infuriating. They gave Terran/Zerg revamped BW units, and Toss is left with gimmicks. Move warp gate to t2 and give us our dragoons back, thanks.

Making a detecter out of the Stargate is actually pretty cool now that I think about it
A 300 gas detector which requires a Fleet Beacon, another 200 gas. This is not going to fix Toss's reliance on Robotics for detection.

The tempest requires a fleet beacon, but from the screenshot the oracle doesn't.

bah I'm dumb, I thought I read the Tempest was the detector. My bad.

Stargate detection, yay!

honestly? a lot of fancy bullshit....
just bringing back a lurker and defiler would have been so easy, but no, rename and repack them and sell em for something new. Protoss and Terran units look like a C&C players wet dream.
Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

i dont see arch shield making it to release its either good enough to completely negate all 6/10 pools which imo shouldnt happen

or its useless and waste of energy since it cant stop a 6 pool

It seems like they really did a number on Mutas, what with the addition of all these AOE anti-air units.
