Starcraft 2 Armory - Unofficial Starcraft 2 Fansite

Thanks for the response Stebo. I'm glad to hear that they got some good use but why are they tier 2? Didn't they used to be Tier 1.5 back not too long ago? It seems to me that in tier 2 they might not be as useful as Tier 1.5 but I don't know, I haven't had a chance to play this wonderful game yet. I can't wait to see what players like Savior and Yellow can do with those units and their D8 charges. I have a feeling that will be a devastating tool in the hands of an SC2 pro.

Hmmm... I'll leave this up to Miles to decide. I think you may be right, tier 1.5. And D8 Charges are mega good.

You also have to remember that the starport is also tier 2, so you could have vikings just as fast as you could have reapers, so this might make the reapers used less, hopefully not, I think with this new buff the reaper will be a much better unit.

idk reapears can dodge aa turrets and the D8 charges make it a brutla killer it might even be effect aginst slower units so it could flank and D8 charger it and run away but vinks may be a better choice because of the transforming abilty

So whats the deal with infestors are they good, bad? cuz after all those ability changes I don't know what to think any more, just hope they're as good as the Deflers in SC, cuz that was a badass unit, and infestores seem to have replaced it.

Well Sc2f had some good things to say about the infestor. http://www.starcraft2forum.org/index.php?categoryid=8&p2_articleid=112

@Endri - The turret is about twice as strong as a marine. They last until they are destroyed and only cost energy and has a large cooldown. The NH can place as many as them as it wishes.

What do u mean by a "large cooldown"? Also is target acquisition essentially automatic or can it be manual?

Also,
-what is the nullifier's molecular displacement?
-does the ghost still have the psionic radar ability? if yes, can it now take out psionic units it detects without obtaining LoS?


I hope units can still use abilities inside bunkers, the fact that the marauders passive slow works from proves nothing imo.

What do you mean? Large cooldown means it takes a long time till you can use the ability again.

Also me and stebo both never used the molecular ability, so im not sure what it does. And no the ghost doesnt have the radar ability anymore, or atleast I didnt see it.

Still a bit confused...r u referring to cooldown in the litteral meaning (as in warcraft spells cooldown) or r u referring to a high mana cost that needs a long time to regenerate back to a sufficient level.
Also does it fire automatically at random targets (like bunkers) or does it have manual aim?

I got a question for those that attended blizzcon, which units still haven't a new portrait yet and is it true that each building will have its own portrait too because in the broadcasted match, when the commentaries selected the pylon, it had a new portrait.

also does the targeting drone detect stealth. and also how much is the damage increase

Wow, yet another batch of good news about Starcraft 2. I hpoe the unit limit will be high. I hate it when you can get only 100 units in Warcraft 3. I cant wait for Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty comes out. :D

Damage increase is 50%...also i dont know but detecting stealth as well would be too much, so i think it wont be able to do it.
