Nullifier has been renamed to Sentry

Original source

 

So sweet... I never liked the trilobite model, and the name Nullifier was always kinda meh. This was totally an upgrade. And with the big clear sphere, recognition and targeting will be a bit easier.

 

Yes, I prefer this new unit too. Blizzard made something new, but it is okay

 

I like the model and name (they are both more fitting for the Protoss), however it took me less than 30 seconds to think Halo, so I doubt I am the only one that sees it.

 

Love it
Great name and really cool model.
I am very pleased with this.
I just want to use this unit. I want to see how practical it is.

 

Wasn't it the Disrupter before? Also Sentry sounds more fitting to Terran in my opinion. Nullifier's still the best name in my book, though I guess it's been stripped of half its nullifying spells anyway. New model looks good, but the most important part will be how it moves and interacts. The old Nullifier seemed to just hover, completely still, when moving, which I never thought was the best look.

 

Protoss Sentry....im not really sure about the name. But i really like the new design. Looks less like a trilobite now...or what ever those things were called.

If you take away that sphere of psi energy. It almost looks like a hover car where a protoss can ride on it.

 

Interesting change; I rather liked the segmented tail it had before, but I can get used to this. I'm not quite sure I like the name, but it does go well with the unit's current abilities.

 

Nullifier sounds more appropriate to me. Sentry sounds something big and defensive, and that image and size doesn't fit the word sentry.. kinda, but we all know that names have got nothing to do with the unit itself

 

Don't worry, nighthawks now drop nullifier guns...

Love the new model, dislike the name.

 

The name is ehhh, not all that, doesn't really suit the Protoss. I think The Nullifier is better. but I like the new look.

 

Nullifier was kind of a zerg name...so this new name suit for protoss

 

A nullifier implies some kind of debuffing or denying capacity, the unit has none, so imho the name change is appropiate.

Both the appearance and the name now suggest a heavily reengineered probe that provides tactical support in combat, which is what force fields do.

I'm satisfied.

 

Explain your logic.

 

Damn that`s one nice unit

 

Forcefields and Hallucinations do that, as did Anti-Gravity which it previously had.

And yeah, Nullifier hardly sounds like Zerg. Zerg completely destroy. 'Nullifier' implies temporarily disabling or disallowing certain actions. Unless they're spreading on the euphamisms thick and heavy, it doesnt seem to fit the Zerg.

 

The new model is nice, but the old model was nice, too. I imagine the change was made in order to make the unit "pop" more- by making it fatter, it will be easy to pick out in a group of units. This is especially important for a caster.

 

Can't view image.

 

And also easier for the enemy to pick it out in a crowd and waste it.

 

Nice model! But I hope it will have better powers other than just create block points (which is very situational) and hallucination.
