New Zerg Unit

"Savior drone" has been confirmed as a new Zerg unit. What does it do? It is 20 drones.

Can someone clear this up for me? does it mean it equals to 20 drones?

any other info on new units plz post here

 

Post your source. If it's reliable, we might even make news out of it.

its in there

 

hmm interesting dont understand it myself

 

Wow 'Savior Drone' ??? very strange, it's probably a upgraded drone where you can mine more quicker/ collect much more minerals each time

 

nice is that were true it would certainly allow faster massing

 

hmm... that is... hmm... f*ck if i know.

 

I'm thinking it is just 20 drones in 1. 1000 HP, 160 minerals per trip, you know. I think probably not 100 damage tho. haha.

 

Are any of our BlizzCon attendees blogging?

 

I was looking for them and thinking the same thing. I am guessing they will blog later tonight after 5 in cali. They are definitely MIA for the time being...

 

they got sucked into the game and will never been seen or heard from again.
or they are spending their time wisely. either one works.

 

Savior drone.....

For some reason i think they named it after a certin pro starcraft player....

 

is savior the one that sent the drones into a bunch of zealots so they couldnt fight back?

 

Well all i know about him is that he is one of the best zerg players in existence and is currently ranked 1st in pro sc games with a 500 point lead.

 

that works too. i really like watching matches with savior, he can do some crazy stuff (see my previous post)

 

Savior is my SlayerS_BoxeR

He lives for the swarm

ps any other news on zerg?

 

i bet savior is gonna be happy, lol. He always seems sad though... emo :O.
Anyways, that'd be imba if it could carry 160 mins each trip... seriously.

 

My guess is that the savior drone would carry the work capacity equal to 20 drones to free up Zerg food for combat units. I imagine if that's true then it would also have slightly improved stats, as a 50 HP unit responsible for roughly 50% of your entire mineral income would be insane and a huge drawback. But obviously it won't have 1000 HP, that would be quite stupid too.

I really wish they provided just a little bit more info on the savior drone. I'm getting really depressed about having almost no Zerg info at all. And the one bit we have is more confusing that it is informative. I'm not sure if I really like some of the Protoss changes either. Sigh~

 

Savior drone,,sounds good~~~~: ) cant wait

 

Savior was the BlizzCon 2007 Tournament winner, I doubt there is anything called a "savior drone" because Zerg generally do not give a crap about what dies, let alone a drone that saves.
