Our friend Karune has released yet another batch of answers to your StarCraft II questions, which can be read here.
1) What does the "Intercept Missiles" function of the Predator do exactly?
The Predator is equipped with a point defense laser system which destroys incoming enemy projectiles. This ability makes the Predator an excellent support fighter to help defend slower capital ships, such as the Battlecruiser.
2) Can the Radar Tower also detect invisible units even in Fog of War?
No. On the other hand, Sensor Arrays and Radar Towers do allow all Missile Turrets in its range to also detect invisible units within those Missile Turrets range.
3) Can the Thor defend itself against air units well?
The Thor unit can attack air units, although it has a relatively slow rate of fire. It is always still better to escort your Thor units with additional support units.
4) Can the Thor be attacked by the Missile Turret like the Colossus?
No.
5) Will phase cannons dissipate if they travel outside influence of pylon matrix?
No, phase cannons will not be destroyed if they travel outside of pylon power. However, phase cannons caught outside of pylon power will still be able to move but will also be stuck in energy form. They cannot redeploy until they are back in range of pylon power. Also, while in energy form, phase cannons have no shields and are extremely vulnerable to enemy fire.
6) When a player in a team game leaves will the computer AI take over? Or, will the remaining players be given control of that person's team?
Computer AI will not take over if your ally leaves in a team multiplayer game. Although, if you have allied control set, the player will be able to control their allys units after they leave.Karune

|

| 3) Really we have to be agree in one only point... The thor aim must be bad beacose his low speed attack and it's a big structure... Well only against Overlord's, BattleCrusiers , Mothership's ( yeah... this make sense for me ), and any big and low speed ship. 4) WHAT!? no this Suck's! i'm really annoying about this. The THor Must be attacked by Everything! It's too big! Blizz This doesn't make sense and also if the missile turret damage the Thor doesn't change anything in the game balance... Too Bad ... Another thing... i want to feel the darkness that i felt when i play games like diablo or Warcraft , not something tiki winki with weapons... Take your time with the Zerg.... Take all the time you need

Sweet, I can see someone using Phase Cannons as scouters already.
|
||||||
|
||||||
Really? They're not very fast, and probably cost more than a probe; so I'd keep using probes.
|
||||||
|
||||||
| Yes they are more vulnerable but I still think they are overpowered.. You can't judge people by his/hers name. I'm going to change a name,this one sucks, why nearly all of you just say I'm lying simply because my ID is lyye 
|
||||||
|
||||||
| Ah just shrug it off. Proto was probably just joking. WTF?? I can easily remember the point defense laser system of the Paladin Tank in C&C Generals. They were really annoying when you try to attack them with missiles from your aircraft and such :/
|
||||||
|
||||||
| America's got these kinda anti missile things,they're installed on those super high tech artillery crap thing... And I heard Chinas going to make a gigantic laser cannon to counter nukes O_o Thats what I saw on TV Who cares they suck. I own, I'm building a "Detector" and researching spider mines at home right now to counter my classmates DT rush ...
