Thors are now 600 minerals, require a Fusion Core, no longer hit air but have the ground area of effect attack from the single-player.

Terran is also getting some pretty major changes. Apparently Blizzard has also increased the Hydralisk move speed, Banlings can more while Burrowed (potentially an upgrade like Roach Burrow Movement), and Ultralisks now have a Burrow Charge ability. Other important changes include new Nexus abilities Arc-shild which grants an “anti-light weapon” to and structure and Mass Recall which was formerly a Mothership spell. For Protoss, both the Carrier and the Mothership have been taken out of the game, while Zerg is losing the Overseer. On top of these new units, Blizzard has also removed several units from the game (at least in the current build of HotS). Now that Blizzcon has officially kicked off, its time to finally see what’s being added to the Terran, Protoss and Zerg arsenals.Īs you can see from the images above it looks like there’s going to be some real game changers. In the weeks leading up to Blizzcon, Blizzard Entertainment teased StarCraft II fans by releasing silhouettes of the new units that will be added in the first expansion Heart of the Swarm.
