Hey guys, is there any online source (kept up to date) where we can read the current unit stats / spell effects / cost / etc.. of HotS beta units (including WoL revamped units)?
Going back through all the patch changes to see what holds now and what doesn't is a bit bothersome.

Anyway, what's the state of current Raven's seeker missile. I remember that it costs 75 energy and is AoE again, but how much damage does it deal? Cooldown? Time to release the missile? Missile speed? etc..

Thanks a lot in advance.

Silly question but isn't viper kind of wasted supply against skytoss as the cloud doesn't hit air?

Also tempests and carriers have such good range you should have them sniped off before they get to grab anything.

I got the vipers because he added in 3 Colossi to help with the hydras instead of getting templar. Wanted to abduct them but they didn't survive long enough. I haven't been playing the beta for very long but skytoss is the only thing I have found that I literally have no idea how to handle.

Possibly the wrong thread to ask this, but is anyone else having problems with the HOTS chat channels?

Every time I join the general chat, the client crashes either right away or pretty soon afterwards.

Thanks for the info. I got another question then: does the tempest fit in well with the carrier (having two capitol ships) or is it better to focous on just one or the other?

Well they do have pretty different roles. The tempest is stronger when you are trying to avoid a direct engagement, just constantly dealing damage to your opponent from a distance. They also kill massive air really fast (BLs, BCs etc).

The carrier however is much stronger in direct engagements. Eventually if you wanna a-move over your opponents with airtoss, carriers will be really strong.

Tempest deal 80! damage per shot with 15 range against BC's . Thats just a bad idea. They also have 300 Hp and 150 Shields which means you need 2 Yamatos just to kill one . Not to mention they're 100/100 cheaper and are 2 less supply than BC's .

This might have been answered, But I would rather not look through all 50 pages to find the answer.... Sorry for my laziness.

If blinding cloud is placed over a casting unit i.e. a high Templar, can that Templar still storm at a range past one?

EDIT: I went on to the HotS units tester and found out for myself. Spell casters can still cast while under blinding cloud.

Im going to let my biased zerg show right now..... This makes me
