EPTThe build icon in the Factory is a Point Defense Drone.
The build icon in the observer's unit production bar is a Shredder.
The wireframe is a Shredder.
But the actual unit uses the Spider Mine model from the WoL campaign.

Warhound is stupidly good. Tempest is still boring. Some stupid new type of rocks that prevents accessing Xel'Naga Tower which isn't good for a game like StarCraft despite being a smart thing to do as a player. Also, the protoss player didn't use any AoE. I was hoping for some storm. T.T | ||

Going to wait 6months after release to see if the pros can salvage some decent gameplay out of this festering mess. | ||

Not every unit has to be useful in every matchup. The Tempest is probably going to be as rarely used as Carriers are against Terran... | ||

And also having a sound effect from Total Ahnnililation I do believe. | ||

It would be viable if it weren't for the fact that the same unit counter all three of those units. And the fact that Collosi doesn't have enough burst damage like the Reaver. But, of course Blizzard wanted to make the Collosi an easy unit to use and counter. Terrible damage and less overkill for everybody!!! | ||

It will be interesting to see how the oracle affects pvp. Even if all the units are rubbish, the only thing I really care about is the purifier being able to stop 20 apm Terrans that are playing blindfolded from getting free wins with 1/1/1. If that's the case, I'm sold. Big fan. 1/1/1 is scoutable, you shouldn't be able to DEFEND it blindfolded? | ||

theres no element of calculated risk that separates pros from scrubs that just run around with no vision or no understanding of enemy unit movements | ||

No marines: phoenix. Unfortunately, with mech, T doesn't have fungals and IT to clear out pheonix. | ||
