This gives the protoss army some real reach to force an engagement on their terms in the end-game. This makes my mind blead | ||

 why do they not try to fix the carrier instead of giving protoss an entirely new unit with much more balance issues than the carrier? | ||

Who says the new unit has "much more" balance issues than the carrier? Have you played with the tempest? Do you work for blizzard? They only changed its role from anti-air splash to ground/air siege because of the new phoenix upgrade, not because it was horribly imbalanced. Bottom line is neither of those roles could ever be filled by the carrier, even if they tried to "fix" it, hence why carrier has to go. | ||

-Taken from the Statement "Carriers are the largest and most expensive air unit available for Protoss. Their main advantages are their long range and high mobility. " -Taken from Liquipedia The Carrier is supposed to be the role that the Tempest is going to in HotS, the thing is in the SC2 there too many things that are very effective against the Carrier, for example, vT: its marines and vikings, vZ its corruptors and hydralisks. Marines are too good in SC2, since their are so effective. Corruptors, you can mass them up really easily and snipe the Carriers before they do any real damage and later turn into BroodLords. Carriers are supposed to be that end game air unit that can target both air and ground. IMO, I think the Tempest will fail as much as the Carrier in SC2 unless it has some imbalanced damage or dps. | ||

I am gonna do some reallllllllly annoying builds if that comes out on day 1 of HOTS. no doubt it will be removed eventually. Protoss just gets a free scroll of town portal for every nexus with 75 energy or w/e? totally insane, I hope I get to use it. It's great from a defensive point of view, but with the warpgate ability, it's not like proxy Nexus would really change much. | ||

Nexus recall could be a bit too powerful... we'll see. The different Nydus ideas are awesome :D For the spectators at least | ||
