100% agree on DE flyers. However I hope for more flying units for Humans, Orcs and Elves in the future. For example Tier 2 elven flying unit similar to hippogryph from WC3, with wanderer having an abillity to ride them. Harassing with such unit would be fanastic due to dealing damage to multiple workers. Cheers!
Btw, what do you think of playing a mass infiltrator with Blitz Attack upgrade? This ability gives me blink stalker vibes from sc2. You can pull back individual damaged units/chase escaping enemies/harass workers with hit and run tactic, then add a few scions to keep enemy melee units away from infiltrators.
Honestly with all the other units that are way more cost efficient and the fast paced tech to t2-t3 meta there is not a lot of room for infiltrator. Going spider infiltrator heavy will allow you to win a couple of early fight but you will be late on tech and the t2 army of any race can deal with spider and infiltrator really well. Breaking your wood eco on making archer is not the best idea. Also infiltrator can be sniped down easy by sector outpost defense or a couple of defending units really easy. The blitz attack seems good on paper but in practice by the time you get the blitz upgrade and infiltrator out you are probably being pushed and need them to fight... Also while your running you cannot kite as it disable your attack so not worth it waiting the 5-10 sec idle time not being able to shoot in the later stage of the game... so too late too costly investment for that small time window. Beetle fly, require no upgrade to run away fast, magic damage to siege if you want to break a building... 1 sleeper with cleave upgrade can do what 4 infiltrator do if you send them to harass so sending 1 sleeper run by is often the better option as they are tankier and can just run away or tank sector shot as they deal dmg to the workers. Getting your upgrade on sleeper and beetle is a must have to survive the more aggressive push that you will encounter by the time your trying to do harass with couple infiltrator.... So Dark elves have way better choice to do that kinda of harassing imho.
