    I think it's great that Blizzard really listened to all of its fans on this one. I would have been torn if the Soul Hunter had made it... it just isn't a Starcraft unit... thank you Blizzard!

    But....I had their story all figured out!! Undead Warlocks crash landed on Shakuras and the toss saved their lives and in return, they taught them how to steal souls!!! :p

    I got mixed feelings about this.

    Its not protoss like at all, so i am kinda glad.

    But it was a pretty neat concept.

    Re: Soul Hunter Scrapped!??!?!

    I'm happy too - it didn't seem very Protoss, the whole 'hoverboard' concept was pretty lame, and 'soul hunting' is not Starcraft at all. The idea of beefing up attack for every unit killed was pretty cool though, maybe they'll incorporate that into another unit.

    I think the dark templar might be scrapped also and the stalker it's replacement, they seem to have almost similar roles to me. If that’s so, the high templar could be changed to be able to utilize templar and dark templar energies, like Tassadar.

    I'm glad Blizzard is doing this "training unit camp" thing. The Soul Hunter reminded me of vultures...meh. I also didn't like the idea of its attack ray being upgraded every time it killed a unit.

    I don't think that's going to happen... the Dark Templar are too vital to the story line. Hopefully, hopefully they'll revert back to their Broodwar form and look sexy as hell like before.

    i think they will keep the dark templar because they are really important to the story and that for the twilight archon it says you can combine a dark templar and a high templar. Therefor they HAVE to keep it. :)

    Awesome.
    I really hated the Soul Hunters, and I'm glad that Blizzard is planning to scrap it.

    Re: Soul Hunter Scrapped!??!?!

    good, i dont like the soul hunters. the name itself sucks.

    hhmm. now they should get rid of the reaver too.. or change it to a new completely new model with the same movement speed and ability (reaver). im getting bored seeing the same things again in starcraft 2 even the reaver.

    lets face it, its not exciting like the colosus which is a completely new unique unit. but im only talking about the reaver, the zealots and others stays cause they look cool and got new skills. the reaver model is lame and looks like has only one ability (scarab) and same movement speed etc.. just change the model, not a worm thing anymore please. innovations.

    just an opinion ;D
