Obviously Protoss is the most imbalanced and overpowered race but the players are just too bad at the game to exploit the awesomeness.

They should just change it a little bit. I mean they both have 140hp. Shuttle's build time is 10s faster but Warp prism has larger sight range by 2 and has the abilty to go into warp mode so I mean it's not like "OMG IT'S SO MUCH WORSE"
Everything in SC2 is just so much better at killing stuff so.. Also the armored....

But yea they should tweak it a little bit

yes, 1 armor is actually a huge buff to warppism. i'd exchange it for the pylon thingy thing

i'd rather survive with my drop ship and dropping 4 zlots / 2-4 dt / 2 ht then having 4 zlots + 6 stalker in a corner of his base where he didn't scout

itt people who have been told warp prisms are weak argue warp prisms are weak rather than using them.
seriously, people need to see jyc vs drg again, warp prism usage in game 2 was awesome.
protoss players lack the multitasking, the closest thing they can do to multitasking is warping in zealots to harass or deny new expansions.

I think most people have covered my main points. The lack of armor is pretty huge.

Lol I used them all the time, though not for dropping, I use them so my HT's don't get EMPed to oblivion. As long as you pay super careful control to it, it's awesome.
 

Hazaro

relies on auto-aim
Protoss with extra minerals should just warp chargelots everywhere.

Those things clear worker lines and force army retreats so fast.

DRG should have won that match but threw it away. It's kind of annoying how you keep using it as some shining light for how protoss should play.

Once you start making comments like this it's kind of hard to take anything you say seriously.

Is it so hard to put aside your bias for even a second?

i don't care who won the series, i was pointing out that warp prism harass was very effective.

if you don't like my comment put me on ignore.

Yes and i'm pointing out that the loss had more to do with DRG. Are warp prisms underused? Yes. However i don't think they are suddenly going to save the protoss race like nydus worms did for zerg.

What kind of a comment is this? So if i don't like one of your posts i should just put you on ignore?

lol I just found out that Snipe had 10 range instead of 9, no wonder why my HT's get sniped before I can feedback.

EMP is also range 10 and radius 2 so he has choices how to make your ht useless/dead

but can u time it so u snipe it twice so it dies before feedback? i doubt

I think if you are fast as some of the pro's then maybe, but it's close. Don't know really.
Everyone should just shoot the range 10 EMP 1 tile infront of the incoming HT so the radius 2 kicks in and removes HT's energy before it gets to range 9.

Oh wow, I must be doing something wrong then, probably my reaction time.

Yeah there is a specific way that allows you to 2 shot infestors with snipe (it usually doesn't happen due to the 1hp regen of the infestor) but it's super difficult to pull off.

i'm want to use some infestors now, what is a good combination with them? Roach? Banes?

Roach infestor v Protoss (get neural). Broodlords too if you can get them :p

and Morrow's ling bling drop infestor style works too

roach/ linngs if you want to take it slowly or just go lings so you can tech faster to tier 3 units.

That is an extremely large collection of SCII Wallpapers.

I really want the Boxer one, but it is 1024 x 576. What the hell kind of resolution is that?


Edit: The Keep Calm and Build Pylon should just say "Keep Calm and Pylon"

that's why the "center" option exists. I wouldn't want my whole background to be red/yellow fwiw.

with all due respect to android as a platform, it rarely, if ever looks looks even remotely awesome. especially not with that busy ass wallpaper.

android wallpapers can look really slick (and that boxer-wallpaper has potential). He should just remove the shortcuts :lol
