Good news! Can't wait to see it. Hopefully, they'd have made more balance changes. Also, I can't see why people have to make a big deal of announcing whatever. I do follow day9, but I hadn't heard this, so now i know it. And that's good. Why do people have to start a war about everything?

I'm a bit worried about how TvP's gonna work in HOTS, battle hellion+warhound+viking(perhaps with ghosts) is a very mobile, cheap and powerful mix that can easily crush almost any protoss army, do protoss have to play defensive and rely on oracle/tempest harassment and mass recall timing attacks? Because it seems like in a straight up fight terran will be really good vs protoss.

I am very interested in the battle report, see new units in action and get a little feeling for how games can play out

Why would anyone care about the battle report?
You can already play HotS as a custom mod.
Why would I want to see some blizz guys play a scripted game that totally would never happen in a real situatio?n

I can't wait to see cannon defense combined with a nexus that is a cannon, so toss doesn't have to make units that can't even win against scvs in the early game. Maybe in the next expansion they can get rid of the nexus cannon and maybe add a gateway unit that doesn't suck.

I hope the Warhound proves everybody wrong and is useful but not so easy to use. If the Terran just rolls in and rockets auto-fire everywhere and murders everything I will feel disappointed. Some micro involved when using a mech TvP army would be very welcome. Looking forward.

It isn't an announcement of an announcement.

Are you too dumb to even read what he said?


If this is an announcement of an announcement per your logic, then a newspaper or written ad for a movie is actually an announcement of an announcement.


Yes. Did you?

lol @ people thinking this is an announcement of an announcement.


This is simply an annoucement. And a good one. No fluff, he told us everything. He didn't say 'hey guys on monday i'll annouce something'. He said 'hey guys this is happening on monday'.


Thank you for sharing OP

No, there's skim reading and then there's thorough reading. What you need to do is thoroughly read the post.
You'll find that there's only an announcement of an event. It's not an announcement of an announcement. The guy is announcing that an event will happen on monday. He isn't announcing that on monday he'll reveal more information about an even later event.
I can't believe we're actually doing this, but are you all clear on what this is now?

You're semanticking semantics.

Really looking forward to this, I can't wait to see if they show off mech and how it'll work in HoTS in TvP. I mech already but I really want to see how the new stuff will fit in.

All the new units are from the factory and mech , of course they will show off mech! xD

I'm Eager to see how P deals with the new T units and how does a meching T with almost no AA deal with a 22 range MFing Tempest.

Well remember not both styles mech and bio have to revolve around micro'ing in the sense of stutter stepping and splitting and such. Mech is micro'd in a different way, as in positioning. I like this uniqueness. There is still some micro to mech like kiting and stacking with vikings or splitting them, EMP/sniping HTS, kiting with hellions (and now, knowing when to turn them into battle hellions), etc. etc.

What I hope I do not see is a bio army in the form of mechanical units, played bio style, but without the splitting and stutter stepping (at least to not the extent that MMM is associated with). I want to see tanks, mech armies split apart to push while defending harass, and constant repositioning/reinforcing of positions.

I reckon vikings will have to be made to deal with the Tempest but that isn't so bad as vikings are kind of necessary anyway if they carrier switch/mass void rays (I've lost to both of them, thors suck in those situations).

Protoss should be able to scout factories with an obs and out-macro by expanding a lot (abusing the lack of mobility of every mech unit that is not a hellion), a la Brood War Style. Immortals should keep him in the game in the meantime.

For Tempests there are vikings of course. Should stomp them hard.

I call it spreading the word. People like me would not have known about this if it wasn't for this thread. Please don't act like that with someone who actually helps.

Well terrible time to release any content for a global game anyways, will watch it tomorrow though, I'd prefer to get beta myself though. And no a custom map that uses a build that might be over half a year old is not the same thing as actually playing hots.
