    I liked the radar dome thing because you can see your enemies movements before you see them its sweet

    I really liked the new Terran supply depots because not like in Starcraft 1 there is always a cases that your scv will stock at the bottom of the supply depots,. now you can low them now below the ground. :)

    i can imagine a new tactic of trapping enemies across the map with the new supply depots, forcing enemies to attack them when they want to move around. I can especially see them in base defense not only as walls on strategic choke points but as obstacles inside the base as well. I'd like to see a versatile air unit for the Terran though, like a tougher version of the wraith if its not too late.

    i think the reapers are gonig to be imbalanced because of the terrain level jumping... if theres ever a map like lost temple everyone is going to be going reapers

    Terran aren't the only race without cliff mobility.

    Zerg are going to get one most likely.

    guys remember that there will still be obstacles that not even cliff climbers can climb

    for example im guessing colossus cant cross over empty space between platforms on a space map
    and there must be walls/cliffs that are too high for a reaper

    and where the reapers can cross, the stalkers can blink. <---totally balanced as usual for bliz.
    not to mention whatever crazy unit that the zerg will have that still hasn't been released. If there will be "off" areas, then they will most likely be off for all of the races and any of the races can use their air to get there.

    Radar Dome is where the party is at. I mean one of those at your front lines and near your minerals and you are going to be very hard to sneak up on and trash your economy.

    /\ I think raiders are the possible solution to this, every race has a unit that is quick and can raid bases. Jump them in and try to take it down / inflict damage, then get them back out.

    Protoss have stalkers
    Terrans have Reapers
    Zerg will have something (if all else fails mutalisks)

    from what I've seen of the radar domes range you should see them coming with just enough time to mobilize and hit them before they can do any real damage.

    It depends on how observant the player is and how they position their forces also whether or not they show up on the minimap.

    It'll still be possible to do some serious base raiding, I'm sure.

    I picked the cobra...

    only because a few of them can take down a thor.
    And because it looks cool and the weapon it has sounds cool too

    EDIT- Changed my vote to Radar Dome... if i become a terran player ever again, it will be the best defense against the zerg.... that way you KNOW if a whole swarm is coming to you or not just to give u a few seconds before annihlation of your entire squad.

    I think that the reapers are soo awesome. The speed and versatility of these units are gonna make these babies a dream to use. Whether it be for scouting, raiding or just annoying another army they will rock my socks straight off

    Reapers, Banshee, and Viking are my favorites at the moment.

    I seem to like the extremely mobile units.

    I don't understand how people can tolerate turtling.

    ...You just sit there.
    That's not fun. I love leveling bases. Especially when they're just sitting there building Missile Turrets and Siege Tanks galore.
