Well it was certainly news for me, so I am sure it will certainly be news for others who have not read it yet. Also why was it not posted?! I need to be informed...
someone posted a link in the middle of a thread. i dont remember who or which. it was like 2-3 days ago. Good news nonetheless!
Well, I never even seen this Stasis Orb yet, but for what I've heard of it, they could change her for the reaver.
actually i wont. the games still gonna change, but my sig wont. its the exact same model as the star relic, just made as a ground unit. and it doesnt have any spells. and it sucks, from what ive heard.
well it makes units slower and it has a "statis gun" i think that does 5 damage or so. i saw it in the protoss picutures.
I meant strategy wise. Is it yet another version of Dragoon? It fires air and ground, what gives her a marine-like attack (since it sez 'fast' in her attack box). And it has around 80 HP, what gives her a Hydralisk HP. It's an hydra that hits as hard as a marine, but slows enemy units? I don't see much the point in having one of those. If it had a 'Reaverish' design, and it's attacks had a bigger range, to work with it's slowing skill, but had a larger cooldown, perhaps... They could say it was a further adaptation of the Reaver to battle, and to Protoss strategy, as it would allow the protoss to pick units to be left behind while spoting an upcoming invasion. And it would fit the Reaver's role quite well, as this type of unit is meant to have an undirected dmg, in order to slow the maximum amount of units possible, just like the Reaver was supposed to have it's own targeting. I think adapting the work of Stasis Orb into a Reaver's role would do much good. It could be a way to bring back the reaver in a different incarnation, and bring back the last bit of it that ppl are still missing, on yet a different unit and role adaptation. I mean, slowing down units coming from afar would really mesh well with Colossus and Warp Ray's skills. Not to mention any other unit combos.
Like I said on the battle.net forums, if they remove such an iconic unit such as the reaver from the protoss arsenal then I expect a full line of plush toys to compensate for our loss. -_- *hugs a cuddly wuddly reaver*
OMG OMG!!!! YES!!! STUFFED REAVER!!!! ;D ;D ;D That would bump StarCraft II down to #2 on my christmas list!! I WANNA STUFFED REAVER!!!! *Hyperventilates*
