Yeah he really should have a Photon Cannon build and a Gateway build, one defensive and one offensive. Keep the warp rift but replace the jank blow it up ability with Summon Gateway. Gateway's continuously warp in Zealots to help push. Make the turret hit like a truck but limit him to one. Make his attack the weak rear end probe electrocute from SC2 so the photon turret can do some damage

Yeah, I wanted a probe to actually summon in units of some sort. Like make a pylon, make buildings near the pylon, and gather bits from minions and structures to make those buildings spawn things. They push hella hard and the ults summon like a colossus that wrecks faces or a mothership that has a cloak field.

I really like probius and think he's a good & fun hero to play. Null gate is bad but most heroes only have one good ult so that's not really a probius thing and more a blizzard should stop making one ult overwhelmingly better in all situations thing.

Alpha Mayo posted:I wish they'd redo Probius. He feels kind of half assed. His warp rifts/explosions doesn't fit him at all, I feel like they gave him it due to being unable to balance a more probe-like hero. And Null Gate is probably the worst ult in the game. I guess it looks cool but why a giant gate that slows, when he casts slow fields everywhere to start with? Really? Probius feels like a loving monster to me, I love playing him. Hell I just got mvp in a match we lost

I almost Probius had a bigger attack range, that always throws me off. It's to the point that I feel more conformable just letting the combos and the cannon do the work.

Maybe the SC1 remaster will give me my fix of probe harassing.

IIRC,back when they were both outlaws that went AWOL from their Dominion outfit, Raynor and Tychus got hemmed in by a battalion of police officers Ned Kelly-style and Tychus willingly charged into a hail of bullets to buy Raynor time to escape.

I am so sad they nerfed Tass' laser quest. It was so great in QM where people would underestimate it and by 20 you'd be strolling into fights and just melting squishy people + chipping down 2 others while walling off their escape and slowing them so the rest of your team can finish the job.

So it's all but confirmed to be Stukov but then again claw marks on the Hanamura seal ended up being D.Va so get ready for a Defiler hero! fake edit: or Kel'Thuzad with bird flu

I can't tell if Blizzard are getting super subtle with their hints or people are reading too much into it, but a Blizz Mod on the forums noted that N-05-98-30 is related to the next character. People are saying it means Mission 5 (where you meet Stukov) and November/1998/30 the day Starcraft: Brood War was released.

Alpha Mayo posted:Technically couldn't walling your own teammate save them from Butcher's charge? Depends on the terrain and on his approach. If Force Wall can fill his whole approach, Butcher won't be able to complete the charge. If it's like a diagonal one or it's impossible in a large lane to seal off the approach, then Butcher will automatically path around it but it will take him longer to do so and usually give you enough time to react. Force Wall is really really really great against Butcher or any other melee characters who have to commit to engagements and don't have dash/teleport/leap escapes.

Probably means we'll be getting lovely lotv questioning his identity fenix soon enough as well, because no way they'd actually bother with Karax, Swann, or Voraszun before then.

SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:I dimly remember brood war what is Stukov's deal now One of two Terran Admirals sent to defend/cleanse the Zerg threat when they are first discovered. They find a PSI Emitter and a guy named Duran (who is actually in league with the Xel'Naga - an ancient race that created the Zerg and Protoss and want to assimilate/destroy the universe) who seems to know a lot about the Zerg. Duran tells them they need to destroy the PSI Disrupter. The other Admiral with Stukov agrees and they set out to destroy it. Stukov gets there first and disassembles it instead of destroying it. Duran figures this out and tells the other Admiral that Stukov has betrayed him. Stukov gets killed and as he is dying tells the other Admiral that the PSI Disrupter is key to defeating the Zerg. It can break their hivemind and turn them feral. The other Admiral hesitates and decides to keep it. They figure out that Duran has betrayed them. They recover Stukov's body and give him a heroes funeral by shooting his coffin into space. The Zerg recover Stukov's body, infest it, and resurrect him to provide them with information about the Terran. Infested Stukov eventually gets captured and Raynor administers a prototype cure developed by The Protoss that destroys Zerg cells and preserves non-Zerg biomass (effectively curing Zerg infestation) Stukov is cured and sent to the Mobius institute for study to develop a permanent cure for infestation. The Mobius Institute is a front run by Duran (under a new identity) and they instead experiment on Stukov. The Protoss cure turns out to be temporary and Stukov slowly becomes reinfested. Kerrigan attacks the Mobius Institute when she figures out that it is a Xel'Naga front. Stukov joins her. Stukov is half terran and half zerg and just wants to kill everyone who betrayed him.
