Will you be able to replicate opponents workers and get terran/zerg units by simply producing them (like zerg can with neural atm)? | ||

The moment your banshee pops out, before it ever even has cloak, the protoss player replicates your banshee with upgrades and cloak and begins going to town on your base. It'll also shut down the 1/1/1 as you can continue to replicate siege tanks while the Terran tries to slow contain you. Why does the Protoss have vision of your Starport? What would actually happen is that a Protoss would see your Banshee harassing him and then potentially be able to replicate one of his own and send it to the Terran base. I don't see how this is any more threatening than a Terran opponent doing the same thing. It would require less of an investment (200/200 for one replicator instead of 350/300 for one cloaked banshee), but it would arrive later (he has to wait until you arrive at his base before creating the banshee), and it would be much easier to anticipate, since you know when you yourself will be making banshees! It will definitely shut down the 1/1/1 though, or at least force the Terran player to micro his marines. | ||

In fact, i wouldn't be surprised if DTs become standard in PvT to force raven. Once/if terran gets raven they have a small window to hit the protoss before they steal the design and run amok with colossus. I love this unit. It's rare that it will outright beat an opponent, but it give's protoss so much utility and synergy with their units. How could you find a ghost/templar v.s. ghost micro battle not interesting? I really really hope this unit makes it through, the skill cap for protoss gets so much higher with it. | ||

It doesn't look like one, so wouldn't you make like 1 tempest then replicate it for 100/100 less of the cost? | ||

There may need to be a patch haha Actually i welcome this as a terran. Every Toss will have the opportunity to get OCs for himself so he can see that MULEs are nice but actually not as good as they thought. Maybe the endless whining will finally stop. | ||
