Despite so many buffs for terran mech for LotV, somehow I get the feeling that all we will ever see in LotV is terran pros going bio again.

But instead of making it smaller, faster, less costs, and less supply they want to make it self repair, which is just promoting cheese strats again and not the problem of the Thor.
I also don't really see the fun part about repair, and definitely it looks like something will make thor cheese so much better. Just allow the Thor be microed in some sort of way. Tbh, it's not super important if its 2,4 or 6 supply, but find a way to make a good player showcase his skills when he uses the Thor. You don't do that by just adding in various "gimmicks" to the unit.

If this economy stays, (macro-based) mech-play is definitely not viable.

Thats what I said? Seriously stop this trolling guys. you said you need a mobile anti-air unit. To which someone told you you had vikings. Then you said you want to have it ground based. Then someone said you have marines. Then you said you want it to be mech. to which I ask why you need a marine with mech. To which you say you don't.
So do you need a mobile anti-air, or don't you?

Looks super boring watching the showmatches. They should have stopped after Broodwar.

Not that I really disagree, personally I'd greatly prefer having Goliath over Thor.

It has a late game when it's the most mobile option and mobility is rewarded much more. I can see players mixing in Banshee's or BC's late game, but not tanks..... though this depends on how "OP" medivac + tanks are.

Tbh any speculation now might be fun, but it shouldn't be taken serious. Look at HOTS announcement. Well zerg got pretty much everything, terran got some stuff which had very little similarity to what was announced, toss didn't get anything from the announcement.

Well, what I said wasn't wrong. You just kept on specifying what you want step by step anytime someone brought up a unit that already did what you asked for. Of course one could have realized from the context that you were looking for a mobile, groundbased Mech antiair unit. But then you could have also realized that my first comment also meant that I disagree and think you actually don't need such a unit.

GET RID OF THIS RETARDED SWARM HOST UNIT FFS. At least, i'm glad they're making it manual, but seriously why not delete it now that we got our lurker back ?

blizzard just appeasing the lovely fans :^)

What do you think of the game balance from a protoss perspective. I am still shocked. I saw the TvP (MC, Hyung, Polt, Soo) Team Match at BlizzCon. Terran won easy 3-0 by also using the new units.
I dont see any good changes for Protoss, as the 2 other races are getting many more possibilities and way stronger.
Your opinions?

Swarm Host and Lurker have nothing in common and never did. They are completely different units with different roles.

Terran is way to strong like always in the early beta, but just don't think about balance right now.
