I am not for or against the 'Heals for Protoss' discussion, but from a tactical standpoint..

By putting the ability on the Archon it makes it a much deeper ability to obtain, and also prevents it from being in 'all' games. It becomes something you decide to go for rather than a staple unit. It also allows the ability too be designed to be more powerful, because of the massively increased cost and tech to achieve it.

the AoE healing is very WC3.

.. Just so you know shield batteries can do AoE healing.

Just click on the ground and it will heal all shields in that area.

The only AoE heal in WC3 I can think of are the healing wards (unless you want to count heal scrolls).

Don't shatter his dreams.

Yes, anch, its just like WC3. The whole game is going to be just like WC3 but in space.

I don't remember seeing (m)any complaints about these, but overall I'd agree with you.

Did anyone else like the kinda segmented look of the swarm gaurdian? I thought it was awesome how it kinda swam through the air. If they took the brown textures of the new brood lord and put it on the segmented model of the swarm guardian I think we would have a winner. Can I get an AHMEN?

Old Guardian name/model was much more better IMO!
...As well as Vulture was a lots better than Jackal(or how its called right now...)
And Scout was better then Phoenix... and ... :D

... Why change so much anyways?! Guess they have to save something(including some old fav's) for the 2 expansions actually) =)

I like the new brood lord look. Unit is smaller. The old ones look straight out of Command & Conquer 3 (among a few other units)
[image loading]

But besides that it just looked like a flying turd (and it even spraying brown shit lol).

Now I really need to keep playing Terran in sequel ;-)

Defensive Drone on Nigh... Raven sounds nice, but I did like the original Targeting Drone much more - it was implemented in beta version published in Paris BWWI year ago and it really felt good for Terran.

New model for Brood Lord looks nice, so classic, but now new name does not fit to this unit anymore in my humble opinion.

Plasma Surge sounds not really Protossish to me +with their high hp units and ability to support air units this way... I think they will need to make it expensive (100 mana for one use) and not autocastable x shield per y mana Medic kind of healing accessible any time.

Cheers,
Raven

some of you are retarded, particularly anyone saying imba about anything when you have no idea how it will even affect the game. also someone saying too many spellcasters? it means more micro which is a good thing to make up for the easier unit selection and production

Rob Pardo Said
With StarCraft 2, "we're really going back to our roots," says Pardo. By this he means the sequel will be more StarCraft, more focused on fast-paced gameplay and lesser amounts of micromanagement, rather than an evolution of the WarCraft 3 formula.

i don't know what you point is from that quote? regardless of what has been said clearly adding many abilities to units is more not less micro
