One last small request for Co-op: Add defiler to a commader

Please add the defiler to a commander. It’s the only BW unit that isn’t controllable in either campaign or co-op. I’ve always wanted to use the defiler, but it was cut from the zerg campaing in hots and it has never been a unit in co op. You can’t even mind control it with a dark archon. It’s in the game because it appears in the nova missions. So can you simply add it to say Kerrigan or zagara as a unit. It would fit their play styles pretty well. Since we will no longer have an overmind commander to look for, can you please just add it to an existing commander so we can have all BW units controllable?

Coop Team left Activision long time ago. Nobody from the company is going to listen to you.

Defiler would be a very interesting unit and I’d to see it too, it could be a nice addition to Stukov.
There is still small posibility that another, new coop commander was under being made after Mengks and perhaps was finished, but have little hope in that.
Even if so, that would be probably someone for Protoss.

If defiler was added to some Zerg waves instead of Vipers, that would be both nice and interesting change (vipers so annoying!). But as above, it was either already decided, or never going to happen.

It’s not a thing that the co op team would have to do. It’s already in the editor. Just add it into the next balance batch either of bugs or of actual balance updates. It wouldn’t take that long for them to assign it to a commander.
