Zerg Ultimate Unit Idea

Heres my idea for a Zerg ultimate unit:

The Zerg Celebrate Spire. its not a unit but a building that evolves over time to gain more abilities. First off it takes a drone and a lot of resources to produce, it takes up the space of roughly 2 hatcheries. and it has a multiple defence mechanicism. first it has a triple sunken spore defence, it can attack multiple units(max of 3 at one time) and also a built in Spore defence of the same type (attacking up to 3 units at once) as for its abilities..

The first would be a creep enhancement that many people have discussed. the enhancement would allow faster regeneration of HP for all units AND structures upon the creep.

The second would be another defencive abililty called the Outbreak of the Swarm, where when activated, much like the Crypt Lord's ability from W3: TFT. dozens of small zerg critters scatter around the base and deal damage to all enemies while returning health to the hive cluster that is then evenly divided amongst the colony.

Its third ability would be the Overminds Eye, which, by now the Celebrate spire would grow to a sufficient hieght would give great vision around the base and auto detection in that sphere.

And its last ability would be the Spreading of the Creep, where the Celebrate Spire would launch large volleys of creep into the air and it would land in an area of effect like shower. the creep would fall and stay for several minutes allowing quick expansion to a new base or showering it on an enemy base so they can not build upon it.

Feel free to discuss, comment, denounce, repunt, or whatever you may.

 

I don't think we're going to see any sort of playable Cerebrate in the game. Still, I do hope that they make the creep more interesting this time around.

 

I hope they don't change the creep at all. It's creep, it gets everywhere. Giving it any abilities would be bad. Also, Overminds Eye... what is this LotR?

 

Hey, LOTR reference in game j/k
I wouldn't mind a minor speed reduction on the creep. I think it could be worked perfectly into the balance of the game while not being too much of a change that people would complain.

 

two hatcheries is huge...
that creep idea would be ok, but the creep enhancement should be only within a certain radius of the super-zerg-building-thing...
the creep launcher is just weird, stfu about that...
the overmind's eye... instead it could work like a scanner sweep, but last longer...
for the outbreak of the swarm... maybe it should be required that you have at least 50 ground units... or maybe you have at least 1/2 unit cap.

This super unit could require you to research each individual thing... where it researches stuff for itself... after you research it, and after you meet all the requirements for that ability, and if you have enough energy, you can cast a certain ability. multiple abilities can be used at once, however it only has enough energy to cast one of the better abilities and one of the worse abilities. this way it is self-sustaining, requires more for its abilities, and cant use all its abilities at once to cause a storm of destruction... you need more than 1 unit for that.

 

the concept is awesome, but not a cerebrate. we should think of something else zerglike. cerebrates look like slugs on a plate.

 

I hope the zerg have no super units or ultimates at all in any way, shape or form. We already know they won't have a mothershipesque unit but I hope they just have regular units and no super anything because that is what the zerg are about.

 

man that would be so cool but i highly highly highly highly doubt it lol i think the super unit is soming to be some sort of bug lurker that as as many powers at the mothership

 

no because they already said the terran and zerg wont have an ultimate unit.

 

I wasnt thinking that it would specifically be a celebrate, but a large enough zerg structure so that it can be compared to one, it wouldnt have any control over broods like a celebrate, but rather be entrusted with the protection of the hive clusters, and of course it wont be implemented but it sounded like a reasonable idea to me, if zerg would have an ultimate unit i couldnt imagine it being a unit like a mothership, some big unit with mad abilities, because it wouldnt fit into the zerg field of units, ide rather see it as a building with abilities that would benefit the whole of the zerg brood.

 

cerebrate. ceRebrate. Zerg are not a party. They don't celebrate anything.


Why not just have a building that gives every zerg unit a bonus to armor or hp or attack or movement speed or attack speed and you have to "level up" each one depending on the amount of kills you get in the game?
(note: sarcasm)

 

sorry for my spelling, im just such a party guy, its totally subconcious. . .

how aobut a zerg bulidnig that is lkie the Troll hero from W3:tFT, and it jsut busts out big bad vodooo for all zerg units anewhyre on the map? XD
(note: who learned me to spoke?)

 

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?!!?? You sure about this? You have to be 100% sure. Absolutly sure. If this is true, then Zerg are dead to me. (Well, not really DEAD to me. I'll just like them a bit less, just a little bit less. Why a little bit? 'Cos I love Zerg.)

 

I'm 100% absolutely sure.

 

no. just no.
that would be terribly overpowered, and we dont need more WC3 in this game.

 

They also said that "nothing up to this point is final".

 

except that. that is final.

 

Yay. I have new hope.

 

Hope that will ultimately be crushed by the fact that there are no terran or zerg ultimate units

 

lol paragon, ye i do doubt they will have ultimate units but the thoughts and concepts make the idea of it heart warming
