LOL, you are so funny. Abduct shouldn't work on massive units? That's what they said for neural parasite. -_- I guess us zergs should abduct a marine and use him to threaten the enemy to give up or we kill him?

Hey! This suits your nick, fuzzylogic. I think you just balanced HoTs

Anyone making comments about balance right now is absolutely ridiculous, and should wear their underwear as hats.

....aaand the TvZ battlereport only supported my previous view that Terrans are getting shafted in HoTS. They are getting the weakest (which could be balanced) and most boring (which sadly couldn't) additions from all races.

But the one mine detonation was kinda funny, I'll give you that. Too bad other things were rather cryworthy.

This pseudo spider mines look terrible. Build at the Fac. Move over Map on there own. Attache themselves to a unit (in a certain range !!!). cant be denied. Not slightly as in BW... and yes BW is the thing to beat for them... But yeah A move units are awesome.....

Because its a zerg expansion? Like WoL is a terrans game? I hope you do realise you have more units then zerg or protoss currently right?

it will fix alot of whats wrong with the game. colos are a unit that is is to easy to just mass and win with by A moving. the amount of micro u need to do against the toss deathball is ridiculous considering all they are doing is A moving with FFs here and there.

WoL's not Terran game, where the fuck that sentinent comes from? It's singleplayer is T centered, just as HotS will be Z centered. Multiplayer experience should be equally balanced and fun for all races, otherwise Blizz is failing big time.

Why do people keep insisting that it's ok for a race to be OP because it's "their expansion"? That makes no sense. Maybe we should all just switch to protoss because they are allowed to be broken in the last expansion.

I love everything they're showing with the exception of the warhound maybe (but I haven't really looked at it too closely). I think they need to make the widow mines better though because they don't seem very good for how expensive they are. It really isn't a big deterrent if it doesn't punish carelessness.

Anyways, I kinda wish that Terran was getting as much cool stuff as Zerg and Protoss is. As far as balance goes I'm sure it will get figured out. I just wish the Terran stuff was as creative and cool as the Zerg/Toss stuff is.

For spectators HoTS is gonna be seriously awesome. I loved the battle report even though those guys are clearly not pro caliber. It's gonna be insane to see what kinds of new tactics come about.
I am a tournament organizazer.

I'd load them into a Medevac. Then I'd use them for annihilating workers lines.

Hell, load some with mines, load some with marines, and do multi-pronged drops.

Terran: Overall I think they did good job. I see lots of people are scared that tanks are gonna be useless. But I'm thinking now with battle-helions there is possibility to make TvT even more fun. First they should make BH weak vs marines. And second they should buff tanks vs marines. So now you have scenario BH > Tanks > Marines > BH. If they could make this while keeping balance vs other match-ups it would be great. I also love those mines.

Zerg: I think they did perfect job. I love units like vipers where you need to think more strategically compared to just attack move. Also that swarm is very nice unit. Its great positional unit.

Protoss: I think they went too much here. Mass recall, mass cloak, deny mining, cannon base... and that stupid tempest. I hate boring units like that. I mean, it doesn't have to be imbalanced to suck. It can also be very boring. Its just click attack unit. Personally I think they should just tweak carrier and make it more viable. That unit have so much potential and to show people with true multitask skill. I suggest swap tempest for carrier, some minor balance tweaks and protoss would be also great.

Agree with all this.

Because it is, blizzard already said Wing's of liberty is a TERRAN'S GAME. You have the most units now. Of course you won't have 5 more units. And in case you didn't count, HoTs allows zerg to have the same amount of units as terran.

No real point microing to pull 1-3 small units. The best bet for now is to make the Abduct skill a required research (maybe at Hive tech or something) or to significantly increase its casting cost. Hope that it somehow works out.

Wow? You do know its not balanced yet AND nerfs will come in place just like what happen to terran units? And I was talking about the amount of units. You are the type of player TLO just tweet.
