Ohh man, I kinda can't wait to see more hots news in the upcoming months. Now that D3 is released I think they're gonna start generating the hype for sc2.
To be honest I'm a little disappointed by some of the new units.. Protoss seems to get guardians straight out of brood war. Spider mines are now back and they attack air? Warhound seems meh to me aswell.. The other stuff looked pretty cool though.
Agree, I think everything looks really interesting. The only two that kinda scare me is the viper just nullifying colossus, and the crazy range on the tempest but I'm sure they'll work it out

Tempest just reminds me of brood lords, and the range isn't too much more than the collosi which are already crazy mobile, but works better together than the carriers. Viper I'm sure will will cost a ton of gas and have a high mana cost, zerg needs it to break enemy sieges and stop people from tanking, the swarm host does that too.
Actually it's kind of crazy. I'm not sure what the sight range is but the attack range of the tempest they're showing is 22 compared to a coll w/range which is 9. The swarm host looks really cool too, man the games going to be so crazy again!
Holy crap, 22 range for tempest? I play protoss, and that scares even me! :P
But overall, lovely new units, but i wonder how it ends up balance-wise. Temptest with it's range, and that zerg unit that generates free units sounds just a bit scary.

Also every unit makes perfect since balance wise to me, there's no new unit I don't like.
