god

I know exactly how you feel
if only protoss had a unit that could watch terran for you in return

you could call it a watcher, and it would make cute mechanical sounds when you clicked on it.

I'm really hyped on this idea, so I hope they include it in sc2
obviously right now without 'watcher's starcraft is super imbalanced

<rant>Protoss is hated for the same reason ZvP used to be imba, you all need a reason to suck ass at this game. i.e.- "I PLAY TERRAN AND ITS SO MUCH HARDER LOL!", now we all know the basic "Protoss is easy theory" (its easy at low levels but equal at higher levels) WHAT THE FUCK!? Basically on the level that 90% of TL members are on you make so many mistakes that you might as well not have mechanics, in fact they arent called mechanics they are just lucky ass key strokes you happened to make. So quit bitching because you suck ass at PvT cuz I offrace TvP all the time and just do some damn cheez and win, if you actually play the damn race man up and learn to win a fucking game you moronic pieces of shit. GOD! I must have lost over 200 PvT games before I felt confident in teh matchup but thats part of the game, its called practice, revolutionary concept which has kept me at least level throughout the years. So shut the fuck up and go play TvP you whiney little bastards, because everyone of you should know how to build a turret and push O.

I kno mines done set off probes but probes move slow as shit and vults move so fast, so if you t sees u transfer and sends vult u just lost all probe.

No it's not a lot of scan but, you already have mines which can easily cover every expo a protoss can take. So the scans are primarily for scanning a protoss's main base to see what there doing.

IMO... If there is any reason to say protoss is easy-win, it's because the cheese strats are so much more volumous, accessible and easy to pull off. 4 DT in a shuttle, 2 reaver in a shuttle, lowliest fighting unit being so strong... At the lower levels of play, a 4 DT drop is so much easier to execute than it is for the opposing player to defend against. Same goes for the other protoss cheeses. But I do think protoss has an incredibly hard time at the upper levels of gaming. Terran and Zerg with decent upgrades just seem so fucking imba when you're toss sometimes, even 1-1.

Because clearly, you're going to be playing with only one ComSat Station the whole game.

Yes, the mechanics for Protoss are easier. IMO that still doesn't mean that they're an easier race to play. Game sense and timing aren't easy to learn by any stretch of the imagination.

lol Bisu and Stork are probably the most influential progamers, behind Boxer. Before those two, apparently all Protoss players whined and cried about how "weak" their race is, and how "imba" PvZ is. Then Bisu and Stork came along, and flipped it upside down. Now everyone else whines and cries about Protoss.

I mean, its impossible for anyone to lose against a Protoss player because the Protoss player is better than they are. I can just join a game on iccup, and type '1a2a3a4a' and then hit 't', and I win automatically without even having to play the game. </sarcasm>
