Ok, i think i've got it...
since number of units is not going to be changed...
---------------------------------
Protoss
corsair --> phoenix - godd vs small air units
scout --> warp ray - good vs large air units + large ground units and buildings
dragoon --> stalker - good vs small ground units + immortal - good vs medium and heavy ground units
reaver --> colossus - very powerful
carrier (arbiter, or maybe both, since dragoon replaced by 2 units) --> mothership - BFFG, second F is for flying
Shuttle --> Warp Prism - Transport unit.
Zealot -- remains
probe -- remains:D
templar -- remains
guesses
dark templars, dark archons and archons remain
---------------------------------
Terran
vulture --> reaper - fast but weak, good for harassment
tank -- remains
marine -- remains
BC -- remains
ghost -- remains
scv -- remains
---------------------------------
Zerg
Nydus canal --> Nydus worm -- underground transportation
_____ --> baneling -- ground scourge (can't guess anything since there is no ground zerg unit they can replace imho)
zergling and mutalisk -- yay=)
that's all my thought so far....
just guesses....

I think Stalkers are a lot like vultures too  fast but weak. Not that protoss had a unit like that before.

I don't see the Colossus as very slow, since it can outrun banelings. In fact, it seems rather mobile, given its ability to scale cliffs.

agree but something tells me that colossus is reaver analog is some way
all i wanted to say is that there won't be reavers, vultures, corsairs etc.
but may be i'm wrong :D

Something tells me the Colossus is too large to fit in a Shuttle. Those things are huge and very tall. They might be unloadable.

But a shuttle could maybe fit into a Colossus.

Well, since the replacement for the shuttle, the Warp Prism, converts units to pure energy before transportation it might just be possible. I doubt it will be possible though, that unit is just too freakin' huge.
Put that on your list btw
Shuttle->Warp Prism Transport unit.

yeah you're right there's no way theyre allowing colossus to go in shuttles that wouldnt make any sense.
who knows there may be another way to transport them but definitely not in shuttle

It's no problem since Prisms, which are the new shuttles don't actually carry the units read their description on sc2.com

Hahahaha, hiding units in the Colossus would be fun, heavily armored transport for HT would rule

maybe the colossus is like a transformer and shapeshifts his way into the shuttle!

Shuttles are still in the game by the way, they drop Zealots at the beginning of the video. So, Phase Prisms don't replace them. They probably replace Arbiters though.

Read the blurb on the SC2 official page; it has Phase Prisms listed as 'Tactical Transports', the role that shuttles use to have. Also, those things unloading zealots at the beginning of the video are, in fact, Phase Prisms.

The hell? no carriers? That's like... no 4pool!
mass carr = insta win is one of the tenets of SC play.
