The new model feels like one abstract design too many.

I'm a product designer, so I'm pretty familiar with biomimicry. I think the old design was a little too literal - too representational. It doesn't take much design-wise to convey anthropomorphism. I think where it's at now, it looks like an animal-inspired robot, whereas before it looked too close to the actual animal, and not enough like a robot.

I agree with Edfishy. The tail thing was more Zerglike, where this round ball-like thing captures more of the round look of Protoss in general. The Archon, the Mothership, etc.

Approved.
Old model was a flying scorpion :)
Also more simplified name is appropriate

Am I the only one who noticed that the tail is actually still there, it's just curled around holding the ball?

Or am I seeing things?

Either way, love the new model, like the new name.

BTW

Sweet, now I want to see the new:

Carrier remodel
Pheonix remodel
Voidray remodel

Cool! The old model looked like a robot fish thing and so I didn't really like it. This is 903475908324759847525 times better for sure.

You can see through the orb so the tail isnt really connected.

Now move onto the carrier please Blizzard....
