Blizzard has revealed the silhouette of a new terran unit they're adding to HotS. This article speculates on what it might be and what purpose it'll serve.
I was kind of hoping Blizzard would've talked about new Zerg units instead cause, you know, this is "Heart of the Swarm", but this is still somewhat exciting news.

I saw that, but I didn't really pay attention to it. I've learned the more I look into something before it comes out, the less interested I am overall once It actually does come out. That and anticipation and games destroys me

After heavily anticipating the disappointment that was Spore, I've never really been able to get too excited about other games.

I dunno. It has feet and the left arm looks like it's holding a plated shield, so I'm thinking it's an armored bio unit, maybe a caster.

Actually, it being a hellion transformation sounds really plausible, the wheels and flamethrower fit well in the silhouette. I could see it making the hellion a tougher harass unit.

yeah the wheels are the biggest giveaway, they realllly match the hellion's wheels.

I thought about it... But what even be the point in doing that on a hellion.

terran already has 9999 units so giving them another morph/upgrade would make more sense than adding yet another unit to the most complete race

but yeah idk, the wheels are too similar though.

I'm aware of the whole unit part but ...blah would have rather seen some useful news in there expansion like the removing some unless multiplayer units and replaces them with something else just an example would be the mother ship.. so bad

The mother ship can actually be a really huge game changer. But it can be a huge liability if it's not used for the proper situation. It's too situational for it's price. But then again when it is useful, it's worth the price. Too bad it hardly is.

Edit- I'm going to go with hellion transform as well. It just seems to fit too well, and would bring back firebats.

They put up another one for zerg it looks like. I'm betting on some sort of evolution (like hydra->lurker in brood war). It looks a lot like a roach to me, so I feel like it's going to be a roach evolution.

yah it looks mostly as a roach evolution as i can see that the shell structure is still preserved, the jaw/head is very similar and the legs match.

It's a transformer. We are doomed.

And not an autobot.


Edit: I totally just put that without seeing what it really was. Highfive anyone?
