I take it you've never heard of the ranged, flying DT unit known as the Banshee.

So if I ball up against Z, I get disruption webbed all to hell AND fungaled under it? Or I can have massive units like colossi pulled out of my army and then neuraled to shoot back?

game over man

game over


you just found your solution! Don't ball up!!

Good point, I'm glad my units don't rely on army integrity or positioning enough that I can spread them out in a glorious, massive arc at any point in the game.

wait

i dont get it

Perhaps the strength of the turret differs depending on what building it is cast on. So a turret on a pylon is really weak, but one on a gateway or nexus is powerful enough to help hold off early pools/ 2 rax.

you mean , like the ultra, the hydra or the overseer?

Overseers are taken out, hydra gets a speed buff and they can evolve into lurkers now. Ultra could possibly be getting a revamp.

ultras now have a new unique army so that no unit gets bonus damage to them, and have 10 armor :O. I really hate marauders/marines vs ultras atm.

For the same reasons people play protoss now. Because you love your race :D

Truth. I'm sure things will change by release anyways, anyone else remember the soul surfer (hunter) from P? We all remember how long that lasted.

[image loading]

That thing was designed so it can lvl lol?Such a stupid unit that was.
That's why I don't read too much into these new units.2/3 of the things that blizzard originally design gets either scrapped or reworked.


Blizzard doesn't have another 7 years to work on HotS though.

For everyone worrying about the Carrier: There's another expansion coming after this. Can't you just see them sitting in the meeting room when someone says "What if we removed the Carrier" and someone replies "The most iconic Protoss unit? Are you serious?"`and then the first guy goes "yeah but we bring it back for LotV, the protoss expansion you know, eh, eh!?";
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

Replicants are going to be useless. I think it's a half assed attempt to give protoss dark archons, but without the benefit of breaking supply cap or the transfer of upgrades in pvp. I can't see any situation where I'd use this.


WHAT? The possibilities are endless!

Copy an SCV

Make Command Center

Make Barracks

The new HotS units are sick! Off-creep speed upgrade for hydras, burrow charge ability for ultras, new infestation pit unit like a lurker, but spawns two high-dps units every 15 seconds or so while burrowed. Lair tech caster flyer Viper that can make units detectors, spawn a cloud that disables casting and ranged attack, and a tentacle that can pull a unit in from long range. Corrupters now have a channeled ability against building that gives one mineral a second and does 1dps.

From Psystarcraft's FB, not sure if anything here is new news to you guys.

.... Corruptor spell and ultra charge are definitely news.

I just got the mental image of a burrowed ultra charging through the ground and then jumping like a dolphin.

Hellions transforms to become MORE durable? Did I read that correctly?

Hellions are extremely fragile. Dunno what you're talking about. o_O

Against what? Only terrans can kill hellions fast and you can't really complain like that. Protoss has nothing that can kill hellions fast enough.

from reddit
My friend is at BlizzCon and he's played HoTS. Here are the latest changes.

No more Overseer.
Hydra speed increased.
Viper will permanently grant detection for energy. Lair tech. Grant detection is the cheapest spell.
Burrowed banelings can MOVE. Possibly an upgrade.
Swarm lord spits out broodling-looking things that have 16 attack damage and .87 attack speed.


HYDRA SPEED INCREASED??? Fucking FINALLY


16 damage? holy mother of everything I love you zerg, I love you so much. Moving burrowed banelings is op as shit no way they will keep that, and hydra speed finally.

Not going to lie this is a great day to be zerg.

Not like burrow move banelings will matter, since scanner sweep reveals like 10% of a map.
