More Units?

*Ultralisk
-E
-The Ultralisk throws two, three row cross firing columns of balls, sort of like scissors, starting at each blade in front of the Ultralisk.
-A great ball would add two, three row columns on each side of the original set. The ultra ball would add four, three row columns.
-R
-The Ultralisk will preform a ground stomp that will pull balls from a variety of ranges towards the Ultralisk.

*Zergling
-E
-The Zergling will throw a small,quick ball that will bounce around the map up to three times and fall.
-A great ball would add two balls beside the original ball. An Ultra ball would add four.
-R
-The Zergling will gain an adrenaline boost for a period of time.

Just some ideas, please tell me what you think!

Hey Zergling, thanks for the ideas! Just to be perfectly honest, I'm not planning on adding another wave of units for a little bit--gonna be working on debugging and perks for the next big update. That being said, let me give you my take on your ideas.

I like the Ultra's offensive ability--it's fun to add new types of throwing movement (and it's not as difficult to implement if the thrown dodgeballs don't need their own models/animations). The defensive ability I imagine falls more in line with a Protoss unit--I picture something like a fancy Protosser releasing a wave of power that draws all nearby dodgeballs to it. I'm thinking of making a Dark Archon unit, and this is definitely something I can see working with it.

The Zergling's offensive ability sounds really cool. I've thought about making a dodgeball throw that would bounce indefinitely until it hit a target, but the reason I haven't pursued its effectiveness would be heavily map-dependent. On the Fire FFA map, for instance, it would be entirely worthless, which would be unfortunate. But it's definitely a cool idea and I might give it a shot in the future. The defensive ability is something that I don't "agree" with, namely because the Marine already has a temporary speed boost. If we want to add another speed-boosting ability, it would need to have some aspect that sets it apart in some way.

As a side note, the Marine's abilities were actually originally going to belong to the Zergling (Adrenal Glands = Rapid Shot and Metabolic Boost = Stim). I ended up changing them to the Marine, however, since I wanted another "all-around" unit (I already had made the Mutalisk), and it fit him very nicely.

Thanks for all your help and ideas!
