They'll still be biological so ghosts will still be able to snipe all zerg units I'm sure.

If that was so, It'd be like neural parasiting a probe, you still only get your 200 supply, unlike in BW you'd get that extra 200 supply of the other race.

I see it being useful for copying cloaked banshees though, force the terran to have to defend against them as well. Or since it's built from the robo, you can have observer and copy into your opponents DT and since he went twilight -> darkshrine, he wont have detection.


Can't copy CLOAKED units.

True true.
These units are gonna completely change the game dynamics.. Terran got assraped here IMO, not just saying that cuz I play them..

It says nothing about not being able to copy cloaked units? iso proof that you can't. Replicant is a robot so it makes sense it would come from the robo ( as well as the observer to be able to copy it )

AskJoshy had a post on reddit, apparently the Dark Swarm-like ability isn't the same, I think they said it'll work like the corsairs ability from BW where shit couldn't shoot out from it, so ranged units would just have to move out from under it.

Yes, BUT keep in mind that not all of this will hit the multi-player field. Some of this crap is just to OP to allow all at once into the online gameplay. They've already said that not everything will the online play. If anything they will play test things and gradually release 1-2 at a time.

IT SAYS "EX: CLOAKING, ETC" It will take on the UPGRADES of the unit, but will not match it's cloaking capabilities. I mean correct me if I'm wrong but it's CLEARLY says that in the picture.

Correction:
Maybe "EX" meant (example) lol so therefore it WOULD in fact take on those additional capabilities.. I'm a bit of a goofball. My bad.

Like siege tanks , thors, ravens, hellions wasnt wasnt enough AOE damage. no? lets give them 2 more and see a 60% T 20% Z 20% P

But flying caster for zerg seems good, and the one that casts broodlings could be ill with timing attacks. easyer to deal with sieged tanks.?

Toss, hmm air units, i i like voidrays and phoenix's as it is. so im gonna look forward to see how my PvZ build turns out.

Weird that zerg only gets two new units when others get three.
Zergs already have less different units than T and P.
I am satisfied with the new units tho.
