    Yep, gotta love terran efficiency. 3 units, two of which don't even have an amazing attack and one of which that doesn't have a heavy attack can take out the protoss.

    it looks so freaking strong, that beam could tear anything apart. But i think it might be a little weak considering the amount of firepower they might be giving it. And plus, i think it might be like the colossu, where it can focus fire on one target at a time, i cant wait to see what crazy awsome stuff people are going to do with this. Looks awsome.

    its going to be a capitalahip that replaces the flagship carrier in sc1
    get your facts straight man. jk

    heres the proof heralded spectacular new developments for the protoss. One such creation is the warp ray, a new capital vessel that many believe will eventually replace the venerable protoss carrier as flagship of the protoss fleet.

    like movement speed? carriers are slow. if warp rays are flagships or capital ships (deals heavy damage) then it should move slow like the battlecruisers or carriers.

    Actually "One such creation is the warp ray, a new capital vessel that many believe will eventually replace the venerable protoss carrier as flagship of the protoss fleet."
    means that it is both a capital ship and the new flagship

    Look, to me it just looks like a realy cool suport unit, I meen its prety much a super guardian for the protoss with less attack range and a cool power systeme with the six second=extra laser

    But then again, for some reason all the capital ships look smaller, or is it just me?

    maybe by having less HP, balances the gameplay in Bizzard's ecuation

    6 seconds to get all three beams to get to maximum power. I think the range is decent for the warp ray too. Just imagine 3 warp rays... in 6 seconds, the attack would increase three fold. Like from 30 (10 each) to 90 (30 each) <--- Just an example ^_^

    Its probably a capital/flag ship in order to symbolize the union of the "Fallen Ones" and the Aiur protoss as it uses both Dark Templar and Templar energies.

    but i still think its goign to be a capital ship that replaces the protoss carrier flagship because we know they cant have both because thatg could imbalance the game some unless something else happens.
