Really hope to see TB cast more of it. : D Hahaha you are probably the only person on thia forum who holds that belief. | ||

Vultures are great in TvP, they are more interesting for early game etc. but hellions are just much better than vultures in TvZ and the potential of BBQ roast is always exciting. I feel terran overall is just less fun to play, less multi prone drops potential but more vulture runbys and dropping mines. TvZ especially is just lacking the HOTS cut throat mechanics engagement and more reliance on spells from science vessel etc. that's not the say the race is worse to play, i love the new BCs and vultures are great, banshee is awesome, TvP is great. But TvT and TvZ? I won't really call it better. Maybe it's also due to speedlings are much much slower and making lings runby not as deadly as they should be. | ||

Losing in starbow is fun, wheras winning in sc2 is still stressful and not that fun. Good mod! Finally a playerbase too. | ||

Right now a large patch with bug fixes is being worked on. The game is still in beta. The balance needs to be more explored before any further changes. | ||

No doubt TvZ is incredible in HOTS at what it does, but I think it may lack some variety (diferent types of unit compositions). So I see the Sbow selling point as: - More entertaining vs TvP, ZvP. - More variety in TvZ. I feel terran overall is just less fun to play, less multi prone drops potential but more vulture runbys and dropping mines. Hmm, I in terms of multipronged harass, you don't really drop in HOTS TvZ untill the later stages of the game. In that regard, Sbow isn't really different in TvZ. TvP bio works a bit differently bio as you (probably) don't want to rush for medivacs in that mathcup. But post 13/14th minute mark dropships have the potential to be more effective than in HOTS due to weaker warptech/mothercore. Mech mathcups are actually very dropable both vs protoss and zerg. But you need to get rid of the Muta-threat before you start dropping. | ||

Dark Swarm is too dim and can be pretty hard to see. The scourge model can be quite confusing to differentiate from banelings on creep. The creep spread mechanic is a very good element from sc2 imo, could there be other ways to encourage it? maybe a smaller speed boost? | ||

And as someone else stated, dark swarm doesn't stand out enough and even plague is a bit too light. | ||
