Make warp gate rushes more forgiving cuz they need to account for building dark pylons

Zerg definitely looked cooler in their early designs, but Terran and Protoss seems pretty much the same. I don't know what it is about the old Z designs, I just like it more. Looks more alive and organic.

I would kill for a cloaked dark pylon Just imagine you could build a cloaked proxy pylon to warp in cloaked Zealots.

the only thing that looks cooler from the old style is the evo chamber. That looks totally badass.

Zerg buildings looked better except for lair and hive.
I prefer most of the modern buildings for terran and protoss though :/

On the other hand I really liked some of the old unit designs better.
The environments were also way more beautiful in the alpha, with stuff like grass really sticking out.

Oh well.. at least HotS brings a few graphical updates as well...
creep up buildings and ragdoll physics woohoo : D

I actually played that version in Cologne on some Warcraft III invitational Tournament back before Beta.
The Zerg stuff looked better than what we have now imho

Sweet jebus corrupters being unlocked by lair rather then spire would be so handy!

But I really enjoy the look the have now more (that may be because I'm biased towards it due to exposure to it).

If I recall they had an ability that allowed probes to mine faster. This was pre-chronoboost.

Dark Pylon seems awesome. I would have loved to play in Alpha and actually get to use that.

If you just look at these images, you can see how far we have come. We still have a ways to go, both metagame wise and balance wise, but we should be able to get to a good e-sports status if we continue in the way of which we have.

i really prefer the present look of zerg buildings, this looks VERY cartoony and WC3.. now they have a much more serious tone

that goes for terran as well
