    Any predictions for how long it takes before players start accusing their opponents of map hacking after a loss?

    How about how long before Zerg players start crying foul about 'salvage'?

    My guess is that it already happened within Blizzard. Map hacking takes on a whole new dimension when you have access to the source code

    If not, it will happen within the first 5 minutes of people playing on B.Net. Depending on rush distance.

    Please guys, can we stick with the thread?

    And another key unit would be the Marauder. Against Protoss it is the earliest tank a Terran can have, and light units like some Zerglings are good when they equal numbers (that would be: never)

    I think the reaper is going to be looked at very closely, and will either be given really good feedback or really negative. Its the one unit I've seen constantly argued over. The queen would be the next thing on the list as its also debated over a lot. As for the protoss.... I've seen nothing but positive feed back on them so far. So I don't think we'll be receiving lots of negative feed back on them.

    I still think Colossus look really weak. It still doesn't have the intimidation of a Reaver drop.

    Sorta think Ravens are still uber. Maybe not enough for a rush, but they look pretty potent as a detector/support unit. Could still be a tide turner.

    Plus, the slowing effect has the Marine/Maurader looking pretty strong - I still say we give the Roach my idea for Acid Spore, 'light' to keep things even.

    Wait, nobody mentions the Banshee? The last time I played against them, Almost a year ago 5 or 6 of them simply tore through buildings. And they cloak. And they also kill units very well. Yeah.
