Bring back the scourge.

Yeah I'm glad they took them out. The only time I used them was with my friends geting crap load of carriers. but targeting a carrier with a lot of Hyds worked even better.

 

i think to create a balance, they took out the scourge just to make room for the baneling and i think taking it back means of taking the balance away. And i guess to balance it all out, they focused on ground units having more units and less on air units, so players could focus on ground gameplay rather than air tactics. idk...

 

I say the same thing. I do not really see the sense of an investment of that sort seems kind of stupid. Besides their leave opened up valuable space for new units like the corrupter which looks very cute may I say so myself.

 

y do u all hate scourge? there awesome! they can take out a sci vesscle it just 2 hits. in Zerg bs Terran, scourge were some of the best units. I don't understand y they would replace it. they need to either leave the scourge or devourer. if you think for a bit, 1 sci ves. could iradiate 2 ultras in just a few seconds. now, for just 2 scourge, you can help save 2 young children from starvation...err...2 ultras from death.

 

You know what? If you really want the Scourge back, urge Blizzard to put them in the Singleplayer campaign in Heart of the Swarm, or have Corruptors spit Scourges out and that's it.

Bah if Scourge had splash attack they would rock

 

Scourges were extremely useful and powerful, and people who don't make use of them I usually find to be very mediocre or casual players. Plus they make funny sounds, and who doesn't love funny sounds?

Those little guys have saved me from so many Reaver/Shuttle combos, the goddamn pickup and drop/fire once thing.

 

well i for one haven't played much, and my friends that i have played don't go for
full out air, more ground with a faily big batch of wraiths, and then my friend who
plays the protoss only palys protoss if he's on a mineral map, (like the Fastest
possible map) and he just makes a huge bass and makes a crap load of carriers
and kills you very slowly. So hydra's allways worked better than a bunch of scourge
that wound never live long enought to do any damage worth doing.

So i never found a real use for them.

 

If they brought back the scourge, the corruptor would become as unused as the devourer in SC1.

 

I think the banelings server a better purpose then the scourge now, it makes things a bit more interesting due to the way SC2 will be played.

 

I like the scourge.... It's the zerg's only anti air wep if you don't want to use 100/100 to defend yourself from drops/sairs....

 

Ya you do have a point it was good at getting rid of the Drop ships but I think SC2 will be a bit more interesting without it.

 

Corruptors make short work of Medivacs :3

you forgot hydralisks. Good anti-air while costing 75/25, so easily massed when you were low on gas.

 

Like i said that's their biggest downfall easily targeted and singled out by ata units such as the phoenix and corruptors. :wacko:

 

Bt you make me want to strangle you and watch you die cuz that freakin emot is so annoying >.> but you make a good point a flank attack on the medivac is smartest way to get rid of it...

@ eon if your playing a tossplayer and he blocked your scouting attempts you can't build a den down and get hydras to stop the drop... and most of the time you go pool/lair/spire.

 

They cost 100 Minerals and 50 Gas currently

 

actually you could say that we dont know their current cost since that cost was when they were Tier 1, but now they are back to Tier 2, and most, if not all, of their stats have most liktly been changed.

 

? What emote are you talking about? this ---------->:wacko:

 

Yes >:/
/strangle.
