That way, they need some microing and you can't just leave them in the same place to infintely spawn units (because eventually the rounds will be so slow). Even if you want to keep them in one place, you have to re-burrow them after each spawning round, which would mean technically they could be used in the exact same way they are now in those stalemate games, but for it to be effective you would have to really be quite good at macroing. Even in SH vs SH it would mean one person could gain an advantage by microing their SH better so the spawning rounds are always on point, so to say. | ||

Vipers are a good unit I feel, but they just augment the Roach/Hydra midgame in which you have to do a lot of damage. Zerg need some kind of other robust lategame unit for LoTV to ever go toe-to-toe late game without relying on midgame damage/SH and static D/massive Muta switches While I would never advocate a return to the dark days, current ZvP really showcases just how many holes that the Infestor was filling in latter-day WoL. | ||

I want SH redesign, thats really cool unit with cool design and average idea and not that boring like roaches, corruptors or ultralisks. Zergs need something specially and interestingly redone with Overseer, nydus and corruptor. Maybe make corruptor as aerial ultralisk, since corruptors already have claws. Something, like charge at target and deal massive amount of damage, but suicide or something like that. Remember StarCrafts Season 2 ending, when corruptor flied through carrier? Something like that can be awesome. And I want that Creeper Nydus, looks really cool | ||

Little demonstration I made. The info in the video is wrong though, it can't attack air with that attack as it says. | ||

Looks really strange and a bit weird, sorry. Constantly burrowing and unburrowing can be kinda annoying | ||

They aren't even unburrowed as far as I have tested. I guess I gotta play with that actor a little to turn that off, it looks really shitty. I actually just wanted to point at the projectile concept and the rough idea of the direction of its stats. | ||

Is this accurate? Will Broodlords gain extra damage in addition to CC immune? (or do Broodlords technically do zero dmg and the broodlings do all the dmg) | ||

(or do Broodlords technically do zero dmg and the broodlings do all the dmg) This ability has been removed from the game before release! Frenzy is a passive ability and doesn't give extra damage (Broodlord shots do deal damage on impact, before the Broodlings spawn). Broodlords will be CC immune (only affects fungal I think) and can't be abducted. Also means Ultras now can't be abducted, since Frenzy got changed. | ||
