In the article it's also mentioned that Nullifier has been namechanged to Disruptor.

I rather like it

Broodlord looks too much like SC1 Guardian... (been said)
what it Should look like is a large, fairly compact, egg/box shaped thing (essentially most of its body being the organs that spawn the Broodlings). Something like a cross between the SC1 Queen and the Overlord (especially since it really should be seen as an evolution of the SC1 Queen.. ie it has the 'Spawn Broodlings' as its attack)

Raven... no... for the Nomad's current set of abilities the name should be either.
"Ghostlike" ie like Banshee/Wraith, etc. [especially if you keep the current model]
"Industrial sounding"..ie go back to Vulcan or something else with a 'construction/engineer' sound...and change the model to something closer to what it used to be.

Not Entirely sure I like the Defensive Drone idea too much, as it seems like an additional flag units will need (direct ranged attack/missile ranged attack) It depends a lot on the details of how it works too.

I actually thought Phase Shift was an Interesting Idea... but given that Vortex has been confirmed to be very Stasis field like, as opposed to Maelstrom like, there is a fair amount of overlap. The "Plasma Surge" is interesting.... I'd probably stick with giving it a fairly wide AoE, give a high number of shield points... but cost a lot of energy.. to differentiate it from Shield Battery (Wonder if it will work on allied Battle Cruisers with their DMatrix up?)
Question. if it will also affect buildings and if it will affect enemies?


Nullifier->Disrupter definitely approve (Nullifier was ok, Disrupter fits its role much better)

So the high templars got 3 spells now? or did they scraped hallucination?

I think the brood lord looks amazing personally. The only similarity between the broodlord and the guardian is the general triangle shape which i think was much better done on the broodlord by removing the crab legs making it look like a sleek death machine... It looks 'faster' than a guardian so lets hope that it is.

The shield ability on the HT is a good idea too. Any time you give a player more tools you have more opportunity to see some crazy moves. Defensive matrix usage has been shown in quite a few highlight reels and now protoss can pull some crazy shit. They still have to manage their energy between that and psi must like T had to do with irradiate and matrix.. looks good imo.

Colossus is now a very strong unit in the late game with the templars surge ability since it will live longer.

looks like a flying drone..

and the Plasma Surge ability might be kinda neat... but it must be balanced properly

Logic has no place on the TL Starcraft 2 subforum sir.

Any change Blizzard makes to SC2 is automatically a bad thing that has ruined gaming for all eternity.

I disagree with the templar spell, someone had the idea of letting archons have it, and that would be cool, they transfer their shield to all units around them.

It would very rarely get used then, why waste all of that gas making an archon to just waste it.

the HT will have to much spells and the current role of the unit will be completely derailed imho. the concept of this ability is cool but it will be better to be put on the archon

When they annouced zerg could heal, what people said was that it would suit protoss better. And now that it's the case, everybody is against it. This is a good idea, imo, because HTs are going to be present in any matchups.

You expect an entire forum to agree with something? seriously??

Heal for protoss is interesting, but I also wonder if having it on the ht is the best. the nullifier or disruptor as its now called seems better, but of course I havnt played the game so I dont know.
I really liked the name Nighthawk.
