New SC2 Screenshots (All new Zerg Overlord Revealed)

never tryed the infested terran thig i should try that

 

It's nearly impossible. I tried it once, and failed miserably.

 

Do it properly! and it'll work :good:

I just reread some of the posts, I say Banelings attack should damage friendly units its makes it more realalistic (So watch out you might kill other Banelings or Zerglings), like a granade in a FPS damages you and allies if your too close to it

 

so how is the new zerg economy tactic diffrent than the old one

 

Its not you just need to move your Overlord to the right places, and unload the Infested Terrans 1 at a time not too fast. Also try distracting your enemy on the front lines and go back door with infesteds, or you can just break their defense with Infesteds while occupying them with other units.

 

when using the zerg i love doing overlod zergling drop swarm it proved to be effective

 

Z v Z Nydus Canal Hydra bomb ftw. Also, interesting on the B.Lings part... that will be useful.

 

ya i used that alot as well

 

I like the new overlord but I'm not sure I like the green thing on it...it reminds me of that big sore on the side of Grendel's head in the new Beowulf movie (kinda gross, I know)
It just seems like it's overwhelmingly large for the unit model...like it takes up too much space on the overlord to be practical

 

ya i think so to changing the over lord that drastically was a mistake but it dose help identify the player color better.

 

I wouldn't call that drastical. After all, the overlord pretty much looks the same as before, just with the orbs. If anything they need to make it smaller so it fits in more.

 

make it smaller and the Overlord bigger too

 

Scarabs never hurt the protoss player using it. If that was reasonable, I say leave the Banelings unharmful for the allies. Otherwise it would be impossible to use the stacked Banelings to damage structures.

 

they could use multiple small orbs along the side of the over lord to help idintifacation and looks

 

Wow. I don't keep up with the forum for a few days and an eleven page topic springs up. Haha. Sweet screenshots, I like what I'm seeing so far with regards to the Zerg. But I am not going to speculate on that fire cloud or the 'cloaked' unit, there are too many possibilities, and I'm sure we'll find out from Blizzard in due time.

 

even better ninerman, i didnt watch this forum for 12 hours and a 7 page topic pops up, this topic was going nuts, but thats prolly because it has a new zerg unit in it


we can see blizz new unit revealing system in action with the firebat and overlord pics. better than the old system i say

 

Just any sort of splash/Explosive/Fast attacking unit can cause lots of damage in a base and be very effective (In the middle of a base with no defenses and can interfere with the enemy's resource gathering or unit production). Using Nydus Canals are also useful for reinforcing your troops, but nows it different so you can't just Nydus Canal an enemy. I believe it was a patch now you must have vision in the area of the creep (Must have vision in that area, not just exploring that area and leaving) to build the Nydus Canal, but still having Banelings are now useful since you do not need to infest a Command Center. Who knows they could be weaker and slower then Infested Terrans!

 

it seems that the Terran have a good economy defence system with the gunned base but how will the protoss cope with this econ strike

 

cannons - as usual

 

^^ moving cannons fenix, moving cannons.
