You mean pull siege tanks from their main to yours FOR NO RAISIN I just had the best idea, Have a Viper deny a medivac drop by pulling the medivac away just as it's about to get to your main. | ||

Currently in WoL: Terran is strong in early and mid game Toss is strong mid/midish late game vs zerg and late game vs terran Zerg is strongest lategame With the new units: Terran is going to be stronger early and mid game Toss is going to be stronger early and mid game Zerg is going to be even stronger late game So it just seems like its going to be even more imbalanced at different time periods of the game when there's already too much of that already. | ||

This is kinda true...I wonder what happened to the battlecruiser overdrive speed burst thing, would've been cool if BCs became more useful. For ZvP the swarm host and speedy hydras might make the transition to broodlords a little easier. For TvP the new mech stuff might make lategame Terran stronger against Protoss | ||

It's useful to save not using an emp on your cruisers in an TvP scenario. | ||

It's thanks to sc2's design that medivacs are not bio, that tanks are needed to support bio in TvZ, that vikings are needed for bio in TvP, without making the terran weaker due to having units from other tech trees (and thus having their upgrades spread out more). If pure bio or pure mech worked like it did in SC1, tech transitions would probably be almost impossible.

Similar to how bio users can already start transitioning into BCs once they hit +3 air weapons on their vikings, (which will be made more "viable" thanks to BC speed boost thingy), bio users may get +armor for hellions or +attack or + armor for warhounds, etc. etc. Then they would have a unit/upgrade(s) allowing them to bridge over into a mech transition.
