HOTS balance patch 20.09.2012.

I think Blizzard is just outright trolling now. They're waving their dicks at us, Gangnam style.

I can't wait to hear Blizzard's explanation for that hellion buff, lorewise.

Melee is one big lorerape, aren't used to it by now, or do you still think an SCV ran repair a Battle Cruiser from the ground.

Or that Reapers can see up cliffs that are about 1.5x taller than they are.

1.5 times using the gameplay engine.

Actually, if you scale the cliffs up to where they should be approximately (where a colossus can walk up them whereas other ground units cannot see up them), it's AT LEAST 32' tall, which is anywhere from 4 to 5 times as tall, depending on the height of the reaper itself.

medivacs/ medics could heal scvs.....not too much of a stretch to let them heal battle hellions, since its essentially as morphing battlesuit.

[Pr0nogo]

It's too much of a stretch, dude. The only organic thing in the Battle Hellion is the pilot itself. He wouldn't constitute anything close to 25% of the global suit integrity, so healing him would be like healing the legs of the marine. SCVs shouldn't be able to be healed either, but that's an original error from BW and they never bothered to fix it up.

SCVs have always been biological/mechanical. Remember, they can be killed by Irradiate, which does nothing to purely mechanical units.

I see - so transform > heal > transform back (?) Hmmmm

[phazonjunkie]

Wow, Battle Hellion and Widow Mine buffs are crazy! ;D
Now we certainly get the Factory firebat.
