Yeah, Dustin said that they didnt feel like Mutalisk was right unit for this upgrade. And btw Corruptors has some sort of parasite-like attack, so it is the same shit DSquid...
I dont like Brood Lord anyway... I like the concept of unit, but the name and his Look is just awful. I want old Swarm Guardian back!

You know I thought the name was tacky for a while too. But hten I realized that "lord" is just a zerg subtype like lisk or ling.

Yeah, the link is on the first page.

the videos had been removed by the user

and the blizzcon page doesnt show anything yet... i hope they do it soon xD

Brood Lords from Mutalisks doesn't make any more sense, honestly.

Spire->Greater Spire.

Spire allows Mutalisks. Greater Spire allows Mutalisks->Brood Lords.

That the Greater Spire allows Corruptors, a unit that it isn't related to, to become Brood Lords doesn't make sense. It'd make more sense if the Infestor Pit evolved into something, or if Brood Lords only required research at the IP (research that needs Hive-tech of course).

Pretty sure the Corrupter comes from the Spire at this point.

I kinda prefer it at the Infestor Pit (more variety) but meh.

Yea...never really dig the name broodlord & also its attack mechanic-ism, it's silly ==

How do they look amazing? Are their models updated? Karune said something about that.

Their actual model hasn't changed much but the added polish makes them look super neat and the notebooks I was playing on (tournament section) was surprisingly running the game extremely smooth!!! I wish I didnt play SC2 because now it makes me want the beta that much more

Nicol you are way to behind. Corruptors come from the Spire too, also I liked more when they needed Infestation Pit. But it would be pretty Strong, since you got caster and Anti-Air in one building.

Yup, you'll see it here sometime: http://www.blizzard.com/blizzcon/video/archive.xml

Any word on when that sometime will be? - Are they available somewhere else?

Thanks

EDIT: - Ah, just saw Scorpio's post - they look good, but are just too out of synch. peh.
