New unit pattern...

exzapel · 07-11-2008, 03:23 AM

Has anyone else seemed to notice that most of the new/updated units in SCII (particularly the Protoss) are like "the final line of defence" or super heavy units that can only be built/used sparingly? Like the Immortals, the Crucio Seige Tank, Thors, the Colossus, the Warp Rays, the Mothership, etc... You get the point, but I wonder if this is in an attempt to change the game mechanics... Like to force you to use a multitude of units instead of sticking with one type like in the original.

I hope not.

Zealots still look pretty damn expendable.

Well, of course there needs to be expendable units, but I meant a lot of the new/updated units.

Those reapers look like they would work nice in rushes...just spam a few, jump some cliffs, pwn all the probes/scvs/drones then leave. Easy win...unless you have to tech alot for them...

It's probably gonna be a lot of tech. The Crucio Siege Tanks look really cool. I wonder how the new units are gonna be.

I get really surprised with the thor, it reminds me the metal gear and looks quite powerfull

Can you imagine a map like Python? Bring in 5 reapers through the back, jumping through cliffs, and boom. Their economy is done. These units kind of take away from the SC we all know too well...
