I'm surprised Hot_bid, that you havent pulled out your trademark quote, can't get myself to remember it exactly.
"The protoss user must realise that there is no matchup." Along those lines.

Protoss needs a new revolution, not easy maps. DAs, DTs, shield upgrades, scouts. Nobody is willing to try anything new, while terrans managed to implement valks, all kinds of mech and biomech and even battlecruisers, zergs drastically improved average muta micro, tactics and late game with crazy stuff like queens sometimes. It's protoss' turn now.

the whole DA talk is shit. Mid game HTs and DA are substitutes - you cant mass production both from 2 bases. Even if you like skip sair tech it takes time to research both storm and maelstrom. Someone said spells = strong , but when you are in a position to Maelstrom-or-Die a stack of mutas to safe your 3 HTs with mana in order to win, it will just become a matter of crazy ass micro to cast the spells correctly. Protoss is using the right weapons, but on these maps every pro level pvz is down to fast zealots pre-lurker timing attack on the zerg's third. If it works toss is ok, otherwise gg

Go back to abusing carriers vs T and reavers vs Z ?

i'm actually trying to formulate some sort of scout build. though unfortunately, other races need to understand that protoss has very little room to try out new things. wraiths are far superior to scouts. and scouts get raped alive by hydras..

if only they costed like 75 less minerals, then they would be feasible.
When they see MC Probe, all the ladies disrobe.

Dark Archons would be a very nice mix-in...

I ought to fool around with them a bit more.

Wait, what about arbs? Recalling a large portion of your army into a zerg main is always deadly.

Scouts can work very well if you stack them. I think that G5 uses scouts really well. They're really fast once they're upgraded.

same thing for bad players complaining about getting raped by koreans at like d level. your 30-100 record certainly could not be hinting at the true problem here.

you all seem to be arguing that because you could just play better to win, that the race = imba discussion is useless.

Until you get to pro level of play, that's exactly what I think.

This is why SC is such a great game, imo. It's so well balanced that you only lose games because your opponent was better than you. You can only improve yourself to win, not blame it on game balance.

wow fanatacist and probe, u guys are definitely in love...following me to post back to back...it's really adorable. If you don't have anything serious to say then gtfo. And probe, it's not basically the same at all and if you think so you have reading comprehension problems..and there are plenty of people that agree with this thread.
