I wonder who’s the guy who finds out about this stuff, camping the Blizzard support pages to find updates? I hope it’s automated in some way…

I love that this site doesn't report all the bullshit rumors like the rest of the fansites that just go along with whatever pops up.

In the original game you have to be fast and precise in your clicks while in StarCraft2 you'll be able to macro as easily as players that are better in this than you.

I guess they don't want to make the game as hard as the original one was - a fact I'll need some time to get used to... Changelings look pretty useful to me but the idea of a transforming zerg is just ridiculous. This has to be a protoss ability and a protoss ability only. How can an all bio race do that? I just don't get it ^_^ I didn’t like the macro part and the fact that you can build supplies or whatever that easily.

Thus is video games. If everything were more realistic it'd be a pretty boring, frusterating game. My question is: can Changelings attack when either transformed or in their natural state? Or are they purely scouts, regardless of their state? It’s Starcraft.. a lot of things don’t make sense. Thus is video games.

I dont know if I like this, I think that maybe there own zerg are immune to it, or all zerg are (which would make playing zvz different if you are used to using the banelings in a manner to take out lots of ground troops) but to make it well you are ok if you are on the same team, kinda seems cheap to me, I know they go for balance but I also kinda like when they make sense about it. … exploding Banelings do not damage allied units: both your units and those of your allies are not affected at all by the acid explosion.
