Even online, the big MOBAs have stolen much of StarCraft’s thunder, while the RTS genre as a whole has lost its lustre.Ī few days later, any doubts have pretty much evaporated. StarCraft II remains a big deal in e-Sports, but look at the most eagerly awaited releases of this month and you’d hear a lot about Fallout 4, Star Wars: Battlefront or Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, and not so much about Blizzard’s latest effort. Anyone who is sleeping on these missions is missing out a great part of Legacy of the Void and it's awesome to see Blizzard supporting the mode with some cool free content.Is StarCraft still relevant? Should we even care about StarCraft 2 any more? I started playing Legacy of the Void feeling not quite sure. In my review of Legacy of the Void, I pointed out Co-op Mode as my favorite thing about the game. It's looking to be a challenging map indeed, so we'll see how it holds up to the hardcore player base of Starcraft II upon release.

Players with #LotV will soon be able to wield Karax's devastating Purifier Beam against enemies in co-op missions! /V0GlAs1XOO- StarCraft December 9, 2015 He can use the Purifier Beam or Solar lance to fire controllable beams of light on enemy units and structures or use the Repair Beam to save and strengthen friendly structures. Karax's special ability, somewhat like Artanis, calls down orbital assistance from the Spear of Adun. In co-op mode, players take on a commander and get access to a certain set of units and buildings, as well as a special ability to deploy in battle. Karax was originally teased on December 9 via the official StarCraft Twitter. We've come to find out that players will be able to play as Karax in co-op mode and players will be able to take Karax and other commanders into a brand-new co-op mission. Over the last week, Blizzard has been teasing new content for StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void that will be coming to the game soon for free.
