    Ah so thats why a Sunkun never one shotted a Zergling as it would have if it was normal damage.
    But the damage format has changed so I don't know what the static defense bonuses or if they have any at all.

    The Sunken will probably deal 20 damage +20 vs armored or something similar.

    Should be stronger since only one unit can build them (in one location also).

    They can uproot now. That's like, worth a lot. Phase Cannons probably got buffed up a little with the removal of Phasing.

    it makes no sense calling them phase cannons anymore... T_T just the old photon cannos... but since that we are all assuming that phase cannons will improve its damage, how about an idea that they can divide the phase cannons into two different cannons and divide the attack power and hit points.. therefore you can have more diversions and support with a short amount of time...

    I call this process the "Copy Phase" technique makes sense right lol

    Queen is now a ranged unit, along with the ability to create a Larva.

    The Queen was always ranged. She had a range of two and could also attack Air units.

    Itza, the Queen appears to have a range of 4 - 6 now, that's what he meant.
    ...Right, Psi?...

    Ugh, why are people so difficult. Do they know they're doing it or don't they even realize.

    me·lee n.1. a. Confused, hand-to-hand fighting in a pitched battle.
    b. A violent free-for-all. See Synonyms at brawl.

    2. A confused tumultuous mingling, as of a crowd: the rush-hour melee.



    There was physical bodily contact so it was a melee attack.

    ahhh, couldnt you just have said that? :)
    But are you sure it isnt "meele" (body on body) attack still? Cause that queen has some long arms.

    Oh, that's what you meant. Well in Starcraft, I'd say that anything with a range of 2 or longer counts as ranged. But you mean that you don't like the animation of course.

    Yeah, so you said:
    And didn't expect it to be interpreted that you said she'd been changed to a ranged unit? And then blame others for the misinterpretation?

    lol, even though before the queen had a range of two, one can still see that the queen is kinda...touching the enemy when its attacking. So i totally knew what Psikonics was talking about.

    Why do people always assume I'm angry?

    But seriously. Saying 'the Queen is now ranged' is like saying 'the Hydralisk is now ranged', so, although you may have meant it appears to have a longer range now, when I misinterpreted, it'd be wise to say more than 'you know what I mean'. Evidently not. That's why I was correcting you.

    Advice taken. Though probably only temporarily... And very temporarily at that...

    Yeah, I think we're all in agreement now. It just had to be clarified.
