\\\"Can we get an actual example of this? When she was captured by Roman she tried bolting twice at superspeed, and the first time Roman was quick enough to just catch her. When she\\\'s confronte dby Mercury, she immeidately tries to speed away, but he\\\'s fast enough to intercept her.\\\"
Okey dokey
First a few qualifiers as to how fast Ruby is shown to be capable of moving:
-In Volume 1, Episode 1, Ruby dodges a continuous spray of automatic gunfire during her fight with Roman\\\'s thugs for a full two seconds.
-In Volume 1, Episode 5, she quite literally vanishes from Weiss\\\'s sight, leaving her unable to see where Ruby went.
-Again, in Episode 6, she manages to materialize directly in Weiss\\\'s line of attack before the Beowolf, or Weiss could react.
-In Volume 2, Episode 1, she conjures winds powerful enough to lift all four members of Team JNPR off the ground and pin them to the far wall of the cafeteria simply by running past them.
-In Volume 2, Episode 4, she is able to approach Roman\\\'s Paladin and attack it before it\\\'s laser sensors can register her presence (note how often the machine evades similar attacks from Blake and Yang).
And in accordance with forgetting what she is truly capable of:
-In Volume 1, Episode 8, Ruby charges a Deathstalker head-on, and summarily swatted out of the air before she can land her strike.
-In the same episode, moments later, she is unable to remove herself from the line of fire of the Nevermore\\\'s rain of feathers.
-In Volume 1, Episode 16, she is completely blindsided by Roman\\\'s attack, despite previously evading similar attacks with less warning at a much closer range.
-In Volume 2, Episode 10, she is captured effortlessly by two White Fang mooks, when she attempts to fight them unarmed instead of simply running away.
-In Volume 3, Episode 1, there are numerous instances where she could have used her speed to disengage from her opponent and back up her allies instead of allowing them all to fight their opponents one-on-one, but doesn\\\'t.
Instances like in Episode 9 of Volume 3 where Mercury stopped her escape cold have thus far proven to be the exception, in that it was the first time she engaged an opponent who demonstrated the reflexes necessary to keep up with her speed.
So... examples, yes?

* A minor change, but still one that stuck out to me, the presence of a Sensor Tower around the Norad II to show how many zerg are nearby.

* The gameplay changes are made with the same mindset. In the original Starcraft Kerrigan has psionic storm and cannot attack air units, here she has Razor Swarm and *can* attack them.
