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

Warp in units. Then, nexus recall.

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.


Does "reverse dark swarm" also prevent melee attacks under it? Or is it just ranged attacks that cannot be executed under it. I though DWeb stopped all attacks from under it, not jsut ranged attacks.
This will make lings and banelings much stronger v marines and stalkers with fungal + reverse swarm.

Dweb prevents all ranged attacks from being fired under it. So ranged attacks attacking into Dweb and melee attacks anywhere still work.

wait WTF TERRAN GETS 3 UNITS AND ZERG GETS only 2?!?!?!?!? god damnit blizzard. I geuss I'll wait to hear till they officially announce the units until i go fully mad.

I was really excited for the toss units too, but they seems to be kinda off, I mean replicating enemy units?? just give us the dam dark archon already. And no more mothership?!?!?! wheres the arbiter then...


Shredder won't be a unit. Its a spidermine-like ability.

it's a confirmed unit. mobile but doesnt do anything. mode 2= immobile shredder when no friendlies are around

None of these are any more confirmed than the alpha units in WoL were. If all of these make it into SC2 the way they are...

Well at least we still have brood war lol.

My guess is that most of the portoss units will be reworked or something because of how complicated and gimmicky they seem lol.

plz dont remove Carrier. It's the most iconic unit of protoss imo, the most intriguing unit design ever made regardless of game. Just tweak it a lil bit and it should be fine. However Mothership should be removed. The cloaking is cool but it aint no arbiter and theres only one unit at once lol

I would really like to see a confirmation on the 3rd spell for the Nexus... If it's a recall ability that might be really useful early game

Also damn you blizzard for not giving Zerg more micro units! Ever since the Lurker and Muta-micro were removed, there just hasn't been a good amount of micromanagement payoff for Zerg. Sure...Zerg can micro their units, but the benefits of doing so are so minimal compared to the other races. It's just a race of broad-strokes army positioning and flanking.

how did you micro lurkers? you just burrow and let them sit there dont you?


the same way you control tanks in siege mode

To all those saying goodbye to early zerg harass on ffe's and stuff, that appears to cost 25 energy. So you can force them to lose a chrono boost.

potential use for viper's pull ability vs terran (assuming they come out around the same time as an overseer):
get 2 vipers behind each mineral lines (ideal for shatterd temple where they cant see the edge) -> wait for mule drop -> PULL AND LET MULE GET STUCK TROLOLOLOL

Wait so is the battle hellion just a new mode for the hellion or a seperate unit? Other than that, I really like these units. The oracle and the zerg units seem neat.

Can the replicon clone friendly units? If the case, it has a HUGE potential.

If its cheap, you make 1 HT or DT back at base, and for a cheaper cost, you make an army of them with replicons.
