Bro, there are bigger changes than just new units

How about that 12 starting worker and 1000 per mineral patch. That is going to fuck the 3 base meta for sure.


5 base meta incoming.

Yeah, the more imba, the more chances this unit never sees the light of day. I mean come on, how broken do you want mech to be in LotV ?

Mech needed a decent anti air unit from the fact. I don't want it broken, just balanced.

Probably without, Scan + BC warp seems to allow them to get anywhere anyway.


That's true. Maybe a warp + short cooldown would be a decent compromise.

I'm simply loving this shit. it's exciting, hilarious, outrageous, stupid, fantastic, outright horribly imbalanced and just a good start for LotV-hypuuue. Still, flying locusts?! wt...

Some of the info in the OP is incorrect. For example nyduses are not invisible, they just can't be damaged. I also don't see anything in Blizzard's announcments about 12 starting workers, unless I'm wrong.

This is really good.

Economy changes mean the games will be faster but will also have less units on the map.
Which means power units are much more valuable.
Deathballs are less likely to happen because the starting economy allows for much more versatile openings, so smaller engagements are more likely to happen.

I like where this is going.

Nah, all the micro potential is in the LotV units, and the broken economy of SC2 is finally being fixed.

It said it will require a ton of energy... So they can't WARP WARP... It will be one warp... Then you have to build up energy to warp again...

Completely depends on maps. Balancing 5 base meta seems much more exciting than 3 base meta.

That's what I'm looking forward the most. Easy 3 bases, then turtle into late game is such a boring meta. It's further reinforced since most maps nowadays have the first 3 bases close to each other with only 1 of them vulnerable. It would be awesome if players have an incentive to grab 4-5 mining bases at the same time, even if the 4th-5th are more vulnerable.

good to see the new units allow for more micros. good directions for the game

so it's stand alone which means people don't need to buy WoL + HOTS to access all the units on multiplayer correct? so do WoL + HOTS owners get a discount or something?

That's true. Maybe a warp + short cooldown would be a decent compromise.

There's already a wireframe/icon showing where the BCs are warping, so the opponent does have a bit of a warning, provided that they have vision.

Definitely not. I had the same feeling when the first announcements were made for HotS (the replicant... my heart stopped beating in front of so much stupidity) and don't worry, Blizzard will listen to pros/community and make LotV playable. Some ideas are fine, but the obviously broken (warp BCs !) and stupid things (my nydus is invisible duh) need to disappear quickly so that we're talking about reasonable changes.

Yeah, OP should change Invisible to Invincible.

They could work on the Thor instead then ? This cyclone thing doesn't inspire me at all.
