I think the issue is that protoss doesn't even need HT - it's more of a luxury. HT's are the new SC1 scout.

This made me sad, especially when I realized it was true (for me). Oh how the mighty units have fallen.

God forbid we can't have Protoss players actually waiting for units. They should be allowed to chronoboost their ht for faster energy regen

lol this functionality is built into the map editor. some youtube vid is around showing a chronoboosted colossus moving, shooting, and regenerating shields faster.

why not use HTs like we use them in BW.

make'em,wait'em,use'em and fuse'em.

plus without amulet that 200/200 min/gas investment can go for a faster +2 attack which is really helpful for archons.

I'm no expert im just putting out my thoughts....

Because there were no Colossi in BW

The mass gateway + storm warp in was a newer style that was moving away from the deathball, but now we're back to mass colossi : /

Btw, terrans have the squeakiest wheels??! Shit, the swarm needs to step it up guys D:

Zerg players wear the self-perceived weakness of their race as a badge of honor. They like being the underdogs, probably because they can cry imbalance for any losses and claim superiority for any wins.

Lol since when???

Also good thing you can still win 68% of your PvTs with the new fast double upgrade style that is completely destroying pro level terrans.

I thought maybe KA should enhance regen rate or something, or possibly even buff archons :D

I liked amulet mostly to defend against T drops - especially at my 4th and beyond... I think it's really sad that they removed the amulet because I can't do that anymore unless I park HTs around - and I simply can't afford to do that most of the time.

We've lost a great deal of flexibility, as far as I'm concerned. I really liked high templars although they're generally harder to use than the colossus (and let's be real, you often need one or the other or both, as they have the same function in many cases)

The removal of the amulet severely impairs protoss late game, IMO - and makes it more boring. It was cool to have a clutch unit that I could spawn anywhere on the map to defend against T drops... and terrans drop a LOT - and their drops are almost always cost effective.

This nerf is just stupid and unwarranted. Nerf the colossus.

Basically what I got out of the patch is that Blizz wants us brotoss to go robo every single game. Next thing you know they'll just remove the other 2 tech paths too... :/
