Let's hope this is an April Fool's Joke.

Well, it is a good joke. Let's hope that the unit will be usable in the Scumedit ;)

The Wow jokes are even funnier:

Despite it being a joke, Blizzard has included past April Fools units, like the Pandareons, in the game.  I'm sure we'll see this unit in the editor as an extra.  Just like the marine in WC3.

Yeah, didn't the Goblin Tinker start off as an April Fools Day joke too?  I wouldn't be surprised if the Mad Cow appeared as an extra unit either.

I must admit though, I'd rather have the Space Murloc.

Not to pull up a slightly aged post, but Karune/Blizzard has confirmed the Tauren Marine will be included in StarEdit2, along with all other units throughout development that have been abandoned or removed from the final version of the game.

Yeah, that's not entirely unexpected.

Hah! Nothing against Blizzard but after I pushed and pushed to get CC recognized and posted for the contest and all I got were "Ok's" I'm a little not-interested in that one. I was hoping for support for prizes and donation, especially after a no-name site hosted the worst organized contest in history and was supported by Blizzard.

Don't you get it Lavarinth? Blizzard hates people who makes campaigns. Hates them.
