So excited for new nexus abilities, really want to see what the third one is. Just because Arc Shield is weak now doesn't mean it won't be refined. Early game choices between chronoing workers/upgrades and saving arc shield for defense is a really good thing IMO (and whatever that third ability is).

I'm really sad they removed the carrier AND mothership... didn't see them as that imba and mothership with sky-toss just seems like a great fit (maybe this is what they were afraid of). Anyway, if the tempest actually costs 300/300 I'm guessing they wont' get made that much. I really think they should've got rid of the void ray (doesn't the tempest have a charge attack anyway?) and left the carrier or mothership in (with changes). Still, a lot could change.

Scumbag Blizzard.

Zerg expansion...

2 new units for zerg.

3 new units for Protoss and Terran.


You did notice there are units being removed right? Also I'd rather have 2 good units than 3 so and so.

Interesting, wonder how many of these will actually make it into release MP though.

So artosis used the attack spell on a pylon, but does it have a stronger attack on larger buildings?

An SCV, which you then use to get a CC for mules and rax for marines.

and how do you get teh SCV out?

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

from the testing done the new terran goliath is bad against air, so marines will still be the only anti muta terran has


Maybe we'll get an armory air unit (Valk?)

These new protoss units are awful. They seem too gimmicky.

We need a harass unit. Not something that can't even kill. Bubbles... Seriously... You came up with bubbles...

Whats the 3rd spell?


liftoff

Hahaha. Now that would be something!

no it's a teleport

I think its recall.


Wow, I think you're right. That's a great addition.


Wait...

Now Protoss can warp in units with Warp Gates and then Recall them back to any Nexus with a Nexus Recall?



It is >25 energy, and 25 energy pops about once a minute... if it is recall, im sure it will be limited in another way, too

How can people not like the terran stuff? It's just what terran needs, the only thing that needs to be better with terran is mech, and now it will become better lol. Suppose the haters are people who do not like mech. I hope this doesnt change blizzards plan.

Zerg changes are amazing too!

Overseer is confirmed so far. The other may just be the corruptor. Although if they take corruptors....what will become of broods ;-;?

An SCV, which you then use to get a CC for mules and rax for marines.

and how do you get teh SCV out?

Warp prism with replicant inside, drop mineral line, turn replicant into SCV, load SCV into prism, fly away and build marines.

rofl. I hope everything stays as it is.

The game feels like it's gotten way more chaotic with these changes. And I kinda like it. There will be so much meta'ing of the metagame that metalopolis will be reinstated into the map pool
