Sonic: [dressed as a cop] Let me speak to the driver.
Grounder: I'm not driving. He is!
Scratch: No I'm not.
Sonic: Driving without a driver? Now you're really in for it.
Sonic: You know? I sure have fun.

I think that with this and Infestors, it makes up for them not having cliff jumping since they have two very different units capable of bypassing defenses in a unique way.

The problem is, there's still plenty of Zerg units that aren't as interesting -- which means they shouldn't be sticking this added functionality on the Roach, but on the older units that have barely been changed, if at all. The Roach has always worked, and if this works for it, that's great, but it's a bit of a mix up with priorities. The Roach shouldn't be at the top of the list to get new things.

Moving roaches makes for interesting strategy. With mobile lings and stealthy roaches, you can have the roaches position themselves as the anvil, blocking the retreat path of the enemy, then use your zerglings as the hammer that smashes them.

So a unit that's intended as a tank can now... avoid taking damage...?
I really don't like this idea at all. The Roach was fine before.

Well, I'm not really sure what the purpose of the Roach is at this point. And I don't know how burrowed movement helps it. I'd prefer just a general Tier 2 upgrade that lets all Zerg units have burrowed movement.So a unit that's intended as a tank can now... avoid taking damage...?
