At least give us the projectiles... Why'd you remove those? Instead of a beam hitting 6 times (as of now) give us 6 separate, awesome projectiles like this.
@BengoManiff Really, you only need like 8 marines. The mothership has fallen from being a one-units-slays-all craft, to a simple support unit used only late-game and only for the cloak it provides to warp rays and carriers. It really disappoints me. It's why I play Zerg :D
and now you need 10 marines to shoot down "the most powerfull unit, the glory of the protoss army, the absolute best unit ever made - the mothership" -.-
@FiloJacobbb Obviously you are the dumb ass Idiot, cause 1. it's supposed to, because they wanted to make it a powerful unit 2. it sucks right now cause it costs too much, needs too long and has a long tech tree. after that you need more skill to handle it than the 8 marines that kill it after 10 seconds and 3. if a toss has a powerful unit, everyone goes in the super retard mode and says "toss already OP" but if a terran has marines that rip everything apart everyone is laughing
@FiloJacobbb no idiot, it wasn't meant to be, that's what it is now. toss already has 3 support units. if you're to dumb to watch the fucking video I'm sorry for you.
@BengoManiff Oh yes because the fact it can half the other players army, mass recall? and cloak your units doesnt shout SUPPORT UNIT! .. you're seriously retarded if you think it's something else, Planet cracker would be the only "1 man army" spell it would have but it doesn't. Protoss composition has a lot of supports and guess what, there is more coming.. the oracle? oh yep, blizzard didnt intend for the protoss to have so many spellcasters you dickhead.
@FiloJacobbb what the fuck are you talkign about, NOW THE MOTHERSHIP IS A SUPPORT UNIT, IT WAS MEANT TO BE A STRONG UNIT! can you even fucking read what I said or are you just fucking retarded?? seriously, if you are not able to read, it's useless to dedicate you any attention. and what a useless statement is your last sentence? because toss has/gets many support units it makes toss stronger? oh my god you are just too funny XDDD yeah support units own everything!!! we need more!!!
@BengoManiff Lol? Are you stupid? The main focus was to make it a strong unit but in alpha they realised.. no it's more suited as a support unit, the only other support units they have is the sentry, the high templar is an offensive unit.. and yes it does make toss stronger, are you bronze? force fields can largely mean win or loss, gtfo troll
@FiloJacobbb "they realised"...that's what you said ;) and no I'm EU plat, but what has that to say? You could be Grandmaster in korea but that doesn't mean that you are right. And that force fields can win or loss a battle is right, but marines, marauders, vikings, ravens, battlecruisers, thors, broodlords, ultralisks, zerg-and banelings, mutas, stalkers, zealots and immortals also can win or loss a game. It's the way you use them.
@FiloJacobbb And what people like you don't get is that you have your opinions and automatically think it's the truth. So in the end, the mothership was a little too strong, so it has to get nerved to something thats so bad that it gets taken out?
@FiloJacobbb no it's because you are officialy useless and that my opinion doesn't count in your little troll-world. why should I go on if you are that fucking ignorant? peace and stay useless
@FiloJacobbb strange all I read is "troll"...oviously I can read more than you because like I said, you are useless, not right - two totally different things. and as long as you troll around your opinions won't count for anyone 'cause everyone just gonna laugh about you. ;) and what's also funny is that you are only like "I'm right, you're a scrub" instead of finally making a useful argument. anyway, go on troll, I love reading useless shit! :)
@BengoManiff lol this is actually pretty funny, You have gone from arguing about things you don't know about to trying to.. idk wtf you're doing you're just being dumb :P reply back I love laughing at your comments
@Horaxlfa well, its removed from meta game, they never said its not gonna be in the campain - like the other campain only only units (goliath, firebat, etc)
and now they have completely removed the mother ship when HOTS comes out AND the carrier so in total protoss is getting 1 new unit and teran and zerg are getting three totally fair
@eperger ya i know, bliz said SC2 isn't about hero so they're gonna delete the mothership but they are making the thor a hero(makes sense)(not). and our new units suck
The cloaking field is useless. You can only have one mothership, unlike the arbiter, so you kill the mothership and alll the cloaked units are dead. It's so slow, so it can't run away from enemy attacks. Worthless.
If you had that time bomb ability you would so easily be able to do a mass recall without your mother ship getting shot down. Woulda been cheap if they had the mothership the same.
Ok, ok... guys, I just don't feel like believing there won't be any buffs to the mothership in the future. Maybe the could buff it for "Legacy of The Void"? I'm really wanting to see it buffed some day, and I guess it could be possible.
The ability of the mothership now is like the ability of the arbiter back in SC1. Cloaking field? mass recall? well at least the blackhole thing is new.
the mothership is op, if u know how to use it.. instantly warping ur units from danger is amazing.splittinga units army in half with a perfectly placed vortex will give u an instant win. so dont complain
Why are all crying that the mothership is sooooo underpowered. If you actually know how to play Starcraft 2 properly you'll know how powerful it is, just not a solo "OMG INSTA WIN" as it is in this video. At least watch some pro replays where they use they use the mothership successfully before saying it is underpowered.
The pros never use Mothership. It costs too much and they only occasion that they ever used it was when White Ra... Or I think it was TLO... Or someone... Did it for FUN!
@akblabla There's a reason, because of the abilities to it. Seriously it's not even worthy of being called a Mothership. A mothership has all the kickass weapons and defenses, this piece of crap we have isn't a mothership. It's an oversize Arbiter.
@akblabla no mother ship compared to the arbitor is garbage, I rather take the arbitor that was well balanced then this gigantic floating piece of turd.
@akblabla the only time it is ever successfull is if it is used as a rush. in the late game it just sucks, its DPS is low, its slow, its expensive, and it gets focus fired to death in an instant. you're better off without it imo.
@akblabla Then how can we see it so rarely in pro games?It is underpowered u only think about its abilites , but the cost and tech u need ( not to mention supply) makes other units a better choice , yeah sure great abilities but... does it worth the cost?
@akblabla In my opinion the Mothership just isn't a generally applicable unit in normal play. It's gone from being an awesome, kickass unit to being a glorified arbiter. It's actually worse than an arbiter in fact, since you can only build one.
Quite honestly, they should've deleted this waste of space instead of carriers for the new expansion.
@akblabla I agree it should not be OP but in its current status it is not only beat by 6 marines or less with stims but is so expensive players would rather have the arbiter back or just build another unit...
@szilike08 yeah.... the mother ship was the most powerful thing in the universe! They deleted most of everything cool because it was a little to over powered XD
@szilike08 Best ability in game REPLACED with Void Ray... DAMN YOU BLIZZARD! where is our call in marines for terran and build thor on battlefield and WHERE IS THE TIME BOMB! YOU CHEAPSKATES!
Well, not only is the mothership underpowered it's just downright fucking useless. seriously who wants to use a giant ass blimp arbiter that can make enemy units invincible for 1.5 seconds and oh yea 1 detector nullifies the cloak, oh and mass recal costs way to much energy to even be remotley effective and on top of that it costs more than any unit in the game and deals noooooooo dmg at all, so whine about ur lil imba all u want but even u have to see that blizzard this protoss need only nerf.
The Protoss have a lot of units right now that have extremely situational use. I would say the mothership, archon, and high templar are used too seldom, but would get a lot more use if they were tweaked to be more effective. I can't think of a single zerg unit though that I don't see employed on a regular basis.
Wait Toss has other units? All I ever see is fucking Void rays. I wish the players who use them would go back to playing computer, They QQ too much when i kick their ass because they don't know how to transition to my counter to their voids.
Void rays suck, and they should learn how to play.
I was really looking forward to use the time bomb... It is the coolest ability I have ever seen... I don t care that much about the planet cracker (I think that was how the other ability was called) or the black hole but i really really wanted to see that time bomb in the game... :(:(:(
fuck you Blizzard, you turned the Mothership from a lethal weapon of destruction like in C&C3 to a freaking Arbiter on Steroids and just had a sex change!!!
The mothership sucks. It has 700 health total and pretty much every AA unit is a direct counter to it. It costs 400 mins and 400 gas AFTER teching all the way up to it. So...pylon, gateway, cyber core, stargate, fleet beacon, and THEN you get to pay 400 mins and 400 gas to get it. So all in all that is an incredible 1250 minerals and 750 gas. Meanwhile the 10 marines + stim that kill the mothership in 10 seconds cost 600 mins and 100 gas (includes stim upgrade cost). So let's see...worth it? No.
The mothership did lose so much awesome abilities, but if you still think about it, they're still useful. Unlike the Arbiter, the Mothership takes longer to destroy and buy cloaked units time to attack. However, they could've at least kept a few abilites, like the beam that's concentrated to the ground but in a more balanced form.
Hopefully the Mothership improves in future expansions.
this ability is good, maybe shorten the time of it to like 10 sec. and make it the missiles do hit the mothership but slow it for about 10%. the orginal time bomb is a small range of the unit slow their movement by 75% (doesnt include attack speed). but this is an good idea to bring a 400/400 big ass mothership to alive.
The problem with this whole single unit 'game-changer' shit is that it means that every protoss player is going to go for it. At the moment, it's quite useful while requiring a lot of minerals/gas to tech up and get it.
Just because it's not used that much doesn't mean it's bad. It just takes some thought to use it properly. Sounds like a cool unit to me.
the mother ship isnt evern worth it now... some "ultimate" air ship they took all the great abilities from it. i dont mind having only one at a time but if you have to really save up for a mother ship it better be worth it....
I think this is going to be only on Protoss campaign mode. Just like the wings of liberty. Terran has special units and some units do something quite different from the multiplayer.
At least give us the projectiles... Why'd you remove those? Instead of a beam hitting 6 times (as of now) give us 6 separate, awesome projectiles like this.

I would say the mothership, archon, and high templar are used too seldom, but would get a lot more use if they were tweaked to be more effective. I can't think of a single zerg unit though that I don't see employed on a regular basis.

@SuperAnnuatedDoodle Totally true, but keep in mind that Zerg does have least number of units overall.

Wait Toss has other units? All I ever see is fucking Void rays. I wish the players who use them would go back to playing computer, They QQ too much when i kick their ass because they don't know how to transition to my counter to their voids.
Void rays suck, and they should learn how to play.

I was really looking forward to use the time bomb... It is the coolest ability I have ever seen... I don t care that much about the planet cracker (I think that was how the other ability was called) or the black hole but i really really wanted to see that time bomb in the game... :(:(:(

they should have kept all the abilities and just make the resources needed into 1200 minerals and 1500 gas XD

The mothership sucks. It has 700 health total and pretty much every AA unit is a direct counter to it. It costs 400 mins and 400 gas AFTER teching all the way up to it. So...pylon, gateway, cyber core, stargate, fleet beacon, and THEN you get to pay 400 mins and 400 gas to get it. So all in all that is an incredible 1250 minerals and 750 gas. Meanwhile the 10 marines + stim that kill the mothership in 10 seconds cost 600 mins and 100 gas (includes stim upgrade cost). So let's see...worth it? No.
inarush123456789 1 year ago
The mothership did lose so much awesome abilities, but if you still think about it, they're still useful. Unlike the Arbiter, the Mothership takes longer to destroy and buy cloaked units time to attack. However, they could've at least kept a few abilites, like the beam that's concentrated to the ground but in a more balanced form.
Hopefully the Mothership improves in future expansions.

this ability is good, maybe shorten the time of it to like 10 sec. and make it the missiles do hit the mothership but slow it for about 10%. the orginal time bomb is a small range of the unit slow their movement by 75% (doesnt include attack speed). but this is an good idea to bring a 400/400 big ass mothership to alive.

I hope they let you use the fully fledged mothership in the protoss campaign, much like how you get heaps of OP stuff in the WoL campaign

The mother ship is actually pretty good if you know how to use the vortex thing and especially the mass recall.
@borgoff55
The problem with this whole single unit 'game-changer' shit is that it means that every protoss player is going to go for it. At the moment, it's quite useful while requiring a lot of minerals/gas to tech up and get it.
Just because it's not used that much doesn't mean it's bad. It just takes some thought to use it properly. Sounds like a cool unit to me.

the mother ship isnt evern worth it now... some "ultimate" air ship they took all the great abilities from it. i dont mind having only one at a time but if you have to really save up for a mother ship it better be worth it....

I think this is going to be only on Protoss campaign mode. Just like the wings of liberty. Terran has special units and some units do something quite different from the multiplayer.

The protoss mothership is a very powerfull unit in alpha starcaft2.
Now actually, this ship got less hp, less attack, less ability...
It's just an upgraded version of the arbiter from sc1...
Better recall, cloak building, and vortex is like the statis field...
This is the protoss Mothershit.
