Wow. I just looked up how the Immortal is effected w/ EMP. Damn.. not only does the EMP remove his shields, but by doing that, it also removes his "hardend shield" as well.
This 1 spell is an AOE damage spell, shows cloaked units, removes casting abilties, makes immmortals mortal again. It's pretty crazy the utility that this spell has. I must be missing something because as Terran I would have ghosts by default :lol

I am afraid that the Terran player will see that there is a heavier zealot mix and instead of focus firing on the stalkers, they will just start kiting the zealots. At that point the zealots are being neutralized AND he is moving out of range from the Stalkers (Which there are a lot less of so even if the stalkers do get free hit's it's not that big a deal compared to the zealots). If the Terran player does that then I am SOL it seems.
Of course this is all theory and with my lack of skill and understanding is probably the greatest hinderence.

Thanks for pointing that out. I forgot about that.

I really appreciate your help. You already have saved me at least 1 loss by pointing out the FF issue.
Maybe I need to play defensive early and try to get that expo like you said. And just get an observer so I can still scout him, w/o having to be overly aggressive, and not get surprised by banshees while I am building zealots
On my road to my first win, i was really doing well then, as i was expanding and he was almost crumbled he sent out two Dark templars and because this is like my third game i had no idea what was going on, no idea where they were, no idea how to uncloak them and because my natural resources were so low he killed 2 expansions and moved into my main and well...shit

In Protoss vs Protoss you really should get some cannons the second you get some spare ore to prevent that from happening. The other alternative if they do not have cannons up themself is to beat them too it as without observers or cannons there is nothing protoss can do to stop them (and that is why you want a cuddle :lol )
Anyone here have a Nvidia card? I've been having trouble with this game that I can only run it on low settings without crashes/freezes. I don't have issues with an ATi card.
Nvidia + Blizzard needs to fix their shit ASAP.

Trying to run it on a 9800 GT 1GB card smoothly.
so after playing extensively yesterday, I'm still having trouble PvT. I just cannot for the life of me stop the first MM rush. I think my issues is not having enough meatshields (e.g. zealots) and focusing too much on teching up to Immortals/Colosi and sacrificing my unit size. I'm also having issues using the sentry correctly.
I'm also terrible at the Macroing and I think ultimately that's what i need to focus on. My eco stats is always last compared to everyone else.
Time to review my replays =(

My 8800GT runs the game great. No problems here at all.
I should note that I am also not using the latest drivers. I'm a few revs behind, 190.xx something or other I think. I was going to update them but I'm not having problems so I'm just going to leave it alone for now.
Des0lar said:Just had an EPIC game TvT. I'm in bronze league, so don't expect some uber micro, but well, this was probably the most awesome game I had.
My enemy knew exactly what he was doing, and nearly killed me off, but when his tactic failed, he was clueless. Sitting on 8000 minerals in the end :lol
Uploaded my epic recovery here: http://www.mediafire.com/?0yz5czlwyz4
Would be glad if someone actually watched it and gave me some input in how to improve myself
Nice game there with the double cheese in the beginning :lol .
Your enemy made some weird mistakes though, for example he was supply blocked for over 2 minutes without noticing...
I noticed 2 things you could've done better.
1. You didn't research concussion shells early enough, which would have given you a huge advantage over his few marines.
2. You also didn't load up your SCVs into the Command Center while escaping.
Here is a nice game from the GAF night yesterday between me and Knives (non gaffer).

You'll be skipping robo. I mean, you'll still want one at some point to get observers. But yeah, go stargate instead and go harrass his mineral line.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Hey guys, I'm having trouble against 6-minute-Hellion-rushes as a Terran... I send a scout over there, notice how he's starting with Hellions... what do I do?
Reapers? No.
Marines? lol.
Marauders? No.
Thor? Way too early in the game.
Help!

Constant stream of units being created, perfect force fields, and psi storms done right etc.

Just had my first win in a rated match, yeah! It was PvT, me being Protoss. I basically copied the strategy of a dude I played against (building 3 rax early on, massing Zealots, after that didn't work, I added Void Rays and Stalkers). Still 3 placement matches to go.

I just began toying with Ghosts. They're quick to get, no need for a Factory prior to building them, and quite devestating in an early rush, sneaking them in during the big fight and launching nukes.mbmonk said:
Didn't know that EMP decloaked units, will ahve to try ghosts out on the next toss player that tries to use DT on me.

No, unless you don't mind not getting constant FPS. At ultra (max) the FPS dips to below 30 in large army battles with a mothership involved. If you want to keep 40-60fps constantly regardless of whats going on, dip it to high.
Ultra settings in game say they're for GPU's with 1GB of memory. The GTX 260 216core I have has 896...and it definitley shows on Ultra. It's fine on High though. This is on a Q9550 @ 3.2GHz.
