Another shitty air unit?

 

[-COOLIO-]

flying ultralisks?

 

[mr. puppy]

flying toilet seat!

 

[jasonng]

Where in NYC did they have Barcraft going?

At Legends Sports bar on W 33rd. Pretty nice venue. Two floors with a lot of seating and TVs everywhere. I was talking to the bartender and he said they want to make this a regular thing.

 

[PhoenixDark]

As if Protss didn't have enough abusive air units

It's obviously the return of the Scout.

Seriously... bad enough 1 void makes you totally safe. Now they get better aggression off an already strong and crazy safe opening?,

[Dooraven]

It's an air unit that has an AoE spell looking from it.this would help with mutas a shitton.

Although adding this with the warp prism might be cool.

And lol Panda complaining about a protoss unit that hasn't been revealed yet.

 

[Holden]

LOL, i dunno if panda and pdark knew but current meta game is that star gate play fucking blows

 

[ultron87]

Oh no, another unit to get countered by Vikings/Corrupters.

 

[Dooraven]

Which are going to get replaced in HoTS anyway, so it doesn't matter.

 

[Holden]

Hope that its an arbiter and they remove the mothership t.t

 

[ultron87]

Maybe it's a flying shield battery/caster.

That'd probably feel too close to a Medivac though.

shield battery... Dam i can still dream about that T.T

Firing device looks similar to a Corsair. Probably something retarded like a morphing Phoenix into a Corsair that does splash.

 

[Corran Horn]

Its the protoss mule.

 

[ultron87]

It flies into clumps of enemy air units and then generates a psi-storm centered on itself.

Like the pheonixes overload?

Also lol Puma:

Puma: The same race I used in Terran. I was going to switch to Zerg, so I played Zerg for about a week... that was during open season 3. I kept swearing at David Kim then. After I switched to Terran, I stopped cursing Blizzard

I'm personally rooting for a complete redesign of the Protoss air tech, but more realistically I hope it's a flying caster that will replace the Mothership.

 

[perryfarrell]

Dont they have 5 flying units already? I guess they're the most technically advanced race.. so perhaps it makes sense.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Wheres ma water units.

More technically advance... can't lift building, can't make a vehicule with a flamethrower without gas, can't make a unit that mines more minerals. I'll still go with terran more technically advanced

Are you being sarcastic? :\

 

[IceMarker]

Wheres ma water units.

This isn't Command and Conquer... or Age of Empires... or Supreme Commander... or Warcraft II & III...

 

[cdyhybrid]

Oh my gosh, are they finally putting in Carriers? I loved them in SC1, really hope they're gonna be implemented. That's quite a departure from the SC1 model, though.

I GET IT

 

[MrKnives]

Am I the only one think it looks a little bit like Corsair with its zappy-like electric damage.

 

[Dooraven]

(apparently there is fish in the immortal lol)

 

[Hazaro]

I might be going to Blizzcon, who else is going?
Can I bum a hotel room off anyone? Please. Thanks.

 

[MrKnives]

Ooh shit, other races are screwed.

 

[cdyhybrid]

That's just not fair. Batman with all that technology would be so imba.

 

[Aylinato]

He just needs prep time

[Q8D3vil]

wtf, batman for toss
now i might switch seeing that i can't win any tvp anyway.

That would actually be a cool unit, but more in the the difference ranges from 20 seconds to make out to 3 minutes

 

[Yoshichan]

love that design

 

[fanboi]

Uncanny...

Cool idea, not good for SC2, Blizzard wanted to make SC2 simple, clear and skilled. It's a bit too complex and too unclear for it.

It's a new unit that creates artificial destructible rocks so that you can delay your enemies expansion even further!

 

[Morbid Angel]

Heh

DES: If you do change over you starcraft 2, would you continue to play protoss?
Bisu: If you're asking for my opinion, then no. Reviews seem to be calling it Terran-World. It'd be nice if they worked on the balance a little bit. If Terran continues to win like this, who is going to play that game? If you're going to make Protoss such a weak race, might as well get rid of it. It's quite saddening. But, if I had to make the switch to Starcraft 2, I probably would play Protoss. (laughs)

 

[Yoshichan]

bisu fails though

so it's coo'

 

[Q8D3vil]

he sound like protoss are winning everything in bw.

 

[MrKnives]

Spoiler

And PvP finals in MLG.

Clearly balance is restored.

Also with the upcoming Batman addition to the Protoss race I think we should start thinking ways to nerf them :f

 

[Holden]

clearly huk playing 4 protosses in pool play shows that the game is balanced! And beating a cobe B terran!

not to mention that stc worst match is tvp too.
but the game is balanced, protoss are just learning how to adapt. (but i agree that maps are a huge problem in pvz).

i personally think that pvz is close to balanced. But i think pvt and zvt have issues especially zvt. And im starting to think that this game wont be fixed unless we add or remove units or even mechanics aka gotta wait for HOTS for this terran bullshit will stop

 

[ultron87]

That design scheme makes it look like it would be indistinguishable from a Phoenix in a big fight.

might be removing phoenix... who knows
