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.

Just like Hallucination right?


Problem with that is with Hallucination, you dont get storm and such. If replicon is cheap than 1 HT or 1 DT, you can essentially make a (cheaper) archon, a cheaper storm army, etc. So long as these replications dont have a stupid timer.


Replicas don't get abilities/spells.


Really? I thought it said they did =(


Yeah it definately says they get any upgrades such as cloaking etc.

As of the build being shown off, they get all spells according to Josh.

The units look fucking sick though, except for the terran ones, but they odn't deserve it.
IS THE MARAUDER GONE BTW?


Hope not, cuz all i'm gonna be doing is massing replicants and copying them and droping terran lol

Im really sad to see the carrier go.. It's prolly the coolest unit in the toss arsenal.. just that it havent gotten used -.-'

Though Im really happy for the new terran units from the fac, but, if they made a unit just like a Goliath, why could they not named it goliath and take its design? :/




It's not quite the same as the goliath. By the description it will actually have anti-light SPLASH AA. The goliath didn't have splash AA. Also price, range of attacks, ground attack, etc. Pretty similar, but not exactly the same.

Zerg units look amazing, very happy about those.

The others.. at least the Tempest looks interesting

Protoss units looks like gimmicks :/
Terrans units are ok I guess, but it's just new unit for the same utility replacing old units.
Zerg units looks good, I guess that makes sense as it's the zerg expansion pack.

Nexus can now recall? Okay that seems a bit imba to me I have to say. Unless there is some heavy cost to it.

Recall to any nexus? Warp-in your entire army to defend an expansion?

Someone pinch me. I'm clearly dreaming.

That's amazing.

I can now recall units back when Zerg attempts to base trade with Mutas or Terran with drops.

Only 75 seconds to build vs the carrier's 120, though. No need to spend resources on interceptors either.

Some elements of the units I like...some I do not.
It seems there's a lot of new abilities being added of which a couple seem a bit gimmicky.

a) Viper: Why not just give overlords a detection upgrade at lair tech instead of giving a unit the ability to create a detector? Recall thing seems....odd.

b) Replicant seems kinda pointless and uninteresting...zerg already has neural parasite and this new ability doesn't sound too different.

c) Why bother going to the whole effort of creating a carrier replacement instead of just fixing the carrier as it as at the moment? Splash damage to light should've been given to the phoenix, (what's the point in having 2 anti light AA units one of which is almost completely gimmicky?)

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


those protoss units are exactly what we need, you're just to retarded to see good use for them.

lolwat..these units are not what protoss need at all besides the harass thing with warp in > nexus recall if that is right.

imo you just can't really balance a unit that prevents mineral harvesting. Also why do P need to clone units when they already have very powerful ones? The tempest is lategame, and toss needs help i guess early/midgame not endgame.



I agree. And in particular this "replicant" unit seems utterly useless unless it's cheap enough that you can chrono it out to quickly clone more expensive units. All three of the new Toss units just seem gimmicky.


Well that appears to be the design philosophy for toss. The entire effectiveness of the race is based around assorted gimmicks.
