The only way I see mass-recall being balanced is if it's on a LONG ASS cooldown


It has a huge cooldown. 150 energy (out of 200) plus 3 minute cooldown.

It is such a minor issue and we should welcome anything that makes people better/more aware, with out doing things automatically. It does not move the works for you or tell you how many is to many.



How do you even know thats not a spectator only thing ?


I don't, but I also don't care if it in the main game either. It is minor and nothing people should worry about.


It's cool if its for spectators or replays only.

If its in the main game that is yet another step in the wrong direction that blizzard has been making in all of their games.

Oracle still looks dumb. Having it mass cloak units too? Ridiculous. The targeting missiles on the warhound is good if they want to make it viable against protoss, otherwise they'd just shoot zealots.

Everyone asking about the thor, they must have left it in. The warhound isn't anti air anymore (maybe anti mech air, I don't know how the missiles work), so it's not able to fill in the thor's role. If they did take it out, Terran is beyond screwed in HotS.

This is exactly what I was about to post. Feels like a step in the absolute wrong direction to me, maybe if this was available in single player I wouldn't have such a gripe with it.

Interesting, they actually kept the colossus in the game. Good design.

If after watching that video you think that the colossus is the worst designed unit in the game i don't know what to tell you...
That tempest...


Overall i'm very disappointed, they have worked for so long since the first look of the units and everything still seems wonky as shit.

And why did they change the look of the locust, they look awful now...

Aerial siege unit that encourages the continued production and destruction of observers... is that a bad thing?

It's somewhat boring without the AoE, I agree, but it's not like they don't have maybe half a year to continue to change things. Beta is beta, and I think everyone would do well to remember that. Constructive criticism, not just "OMG PROTOSS SO BROKEN WTF BLIZZ TEMPST R 2 OP!!!!!111!"

3 minutes. It drains 150 energy on that mothership thing.

it's not that significant.. games aren't being lost or won to this.


it just makes the game more newbi friendly which is wat blizzard has been doing since the start, its so fucking stupid how they keep adding unnecessary changes which have no benefit to gameplay.

lets fucking start a petition so we can force them to revert the change, its honestly starting to get ridiculous

I personally don't like it very much. It makes it a LOT easier to know when to transfer workers to a new base, but on the other hand that's exactly what a skilled player should check all the time, spent some APM on it etc, It makes quite a difference if your saturation is perfect or your base is over/under saturated. Now EVERYONE would have a perfect saturation in every base.

No box workers=no skill.

But seriously, something completely missed in SC2 over BW was you physically could not do everything at once. There was so much happening that you had to balance your choices into your strategy. That's strategic depth. Simplification is not impressive. I'm sure a lot more players will get out of platinum because of it but the easier you make a game, the less interesting it is to watch.

Mothership Core - build mothership core from nexus, has to remain attached to nexus. Can tele to any nexus you have. Purify ability makes it into a powerful photon cannon. Can upgrade it to Mothership later. Can mass recall. This is early game unit.

Does this mean the mothership is still in hots?

Errrr, arbiters were present in BW?
Oracle seems powerful, but I dont think its cloaking mechanism is ridiculous

I don't see the worker count on the Nexus/CC/Hatch being a big deal. I'm not even a good player (Diamond) and I can tell when I need to transfer workers just by looking at the mining pattern. This'll help bronzies and make no difference for people at the top level. Good change.

Why is everyone so fucking pessimistic about HOTS?

Everyone is freaking complaining about this and that, the Battle Report has shown us many new strategies, and everyone should be excited about this.

22 range tempest is NOT AS BAD AS EVERYONE says, watch the freaking video. Sieging swarm hosts from afar, harassing with its range only to be countered by other things such as the viper, its amazing.
