    I think it was quite certain that it would be back, the hydralisk was THE face of the zerg force.

    Did you ever stop to think that he may have killed and stepped on the very last one?!?!? I know that they're confirmed, for many reasons, but I like to give my "last one" theory for this one. ;D

    They could never remove these, they are what makes zerg more Venemous, or what should you call it. Dangerous?

    I bet its back, and more deadlier than ever. I mean, the Zerg did evolve right? Right?

    yea the hydras are going to be sick in SC2. I'm hoping they have an upgrade (evolve like the lurker) to become a sick melee attack unit.

    I would be perfectly happy if they stayed the same, but they're obviously in it.





    But what about Lurkers?

    lurkers r cool but they will probably get the axe.
    its just that if they stay, it will be the same game,like nothing has changed. i want some cool new hydra upgrade, my fav zerg unit.

    If it's back it will really be changed I guess, but I do see it returning.

    Was pretty obvious it was coming, I mean, which Zerg player DOESN'T use the Hydralisk every match? (Ling rushes excepted). But ofc, great news.

    The face of the Zerg: A drooling, menacing head disproportionately rearing over an armor clad body, deadly scythes swinging left and right.... The Hydralisk will inspire fear among the Terran Infantry for generations to come!

    not a bad idea, but concept would move to what type of insect? this is the issue with this insectoid look, how do you classify hydras. ugg but now i'm running into tangents.
