Hi TL .So the idea came when i heard a someone ( i don't remember who and i am sorry) who said they(blizzard) should remove any hero kind of unit (which is the Mother ship/core),I thought about a unit that could do about the same but a bit less powerful as the MSH was late game.

[image loading]

I introduce you : The Aura.

Unit Idea: When i first saw the replicant , i thought it was a really cool unit , but his abilities were just too strong but i liked the design of the unit , and i was wondering if it would be cool if he was some kind of flying unit or something that is attach to a specific unit.

Then i saw a lots of post about ideas for the oracle and a lots of balance changes with this unit , to make him a good unit overall. The thing is like i never really liked the idea of the oracle , especially with the fact that it can't do physical damage.

However i am not here to tell blizzard how to do their job or to debate with someone about idea's , i just wanted to share my love for Starcraft by showing you some stuff.In advance , i would like to apologize for the so so design , i am not very good at it but here the basic idea of the unit design: 3 Replicant turning around the (lets say Oracle). Those guys will serve for two things:

-Serve as the weapon which i will describe to you later.
-Guide the players from where the radius end for one of his abilities.
- All three ''Replicant'' will be linked to each other and the ''Oracle'' As well by a
Psionic Beam just to look a little bit cooler.
-The ''Replicant'' will also turn around the ''Oracle''


There it is your unit overview and his Abilities:
Cost: 200/200
Health: 300
Shield:100
Armor:1
Dmg vs Ground: 3
Dmg vs Air:5
Dps:1.1
Movement speed: 2.25
Armored Mechanical Psionic
Energy(Max):200
Energy(Start):50
Upgrade:Yes(This upgrade cost 100/150 and actually unlock an ability(Upgrade from Fleet Beacon).
Build from: Stargate(Require Fleet Beacon).


Now the abilities:


[image loading]
Cloaking Field: Cost : 100 Energy :Cloak any ally unit under the radius (315 arc) which is about 45 less than the Mothership.(Duration : 15 seconds.)


[image loading]
Stasis Field: Cost:150 Energy:Freeze the target into a stasis jail.The units are invulnerable and cannot be targeted by spell. Can't apply stasis to a friendly unit.Units up to 2 range near the first frozen target are jailed as well but the amount of time decrease from 30 to 15 seconds.

[image loading]

Detection System: Cost:25, Detect any invisible or burrow units with the same radius as the Raven.(Ability must be upgrade from the Fleet Beacon at the cost of 100/150
Duration : 35 Seconds.


Ok , i think i said everything , i hope you guys will like it and if you have any questions or constructive responses please give it to me i'll be happy to hear them.Also , if you guys want to correct the unit by changing things , feel free the post is made for that

Thanks for reading.

an arbiter that can detect.

why not just tweak the oracle more and make it into an arbiter? I think the oracle could benefit from some kind of Fleet Beacon upgrade that gives it a powerful ability.

Yes they Could Tweak it , but i just didn't like the idea of a harassing unit that can't attack. I feel like they should just put the arbiter back in the game.
