I think it may be more complicated than we think, so far Blizz is doing a pretty good job. I say we leave it to them and see how things go.

It'd all be fine if did the following:

Swarm Host -> Lurker
Warhound+Thor -> Goliath
Mothership -> Arbiter
Viper -> Defiler
Widow Mine -> Spider Mine

Prebalanced units, they already have the art done, can just be slotted directly into multiplayer as is.

if u wanna play with those units, play Broodwar

BW is too buggy. If they fixed Dragoon pathing, muta stacking, wall consistency, drone drilling and tens of other bugs I'd play it.

Play a brood war mod in SC2.

I do but other people are hardly ever online.

Anyway my point was that these "new" units are just dumbed down versions of the BW units I listed. If they were striking out in a new direction I'd have no problem (I like banelings and blink-stalkers and banshees because they make the game deeper).

I play the game because of Esports/tournaments. The changes would make for a better esport to watch and hence a more fun game to play. Watching some 50apm ladder hero beating 3-time MSL winner Jaedong because they can both 1A deathballs into each other is depressing.
