I wonder why Protoss originally moved away from HT in favor of Arbiters. I mean, I know why, but it seems like HT have been underemphasized relative to their usefulness. It's a good question. From a Terran perspective, I always thought HT used really well was virtually unbeatable. There's nothing you can do against a Protoss player who can coordinate a huge army while also dropping 4 HT out of a moving Shuttle and quickly casting 6-8 Storms. You can't EMP because the HT are in a Shuttle. You can't snipe a Shuttle when a wave of Zealots and Dragoons are crashing past your Spider Mines into Tanks. Good thing very few Protoss players can pull the above scenario off. This is why the peak form version of Jangbi was the greatest PvT player ever. I think part of the preference for Arbiters is they're more "stable". High Templar are very fragile, and even if kept alive, a whole game can come down to whether you can pull off amazing, stressful micro in one crucial moment. Players don't like to be dependent on micro to win if it can be avoided, since winning by macro + tactics feels safer. But necessity is the mother of invention, and as has often been the case in BW history, Flash is the source of necessity. So maybe we'll see a lot more HT usage for now, which would be great from a spectator standpoint because Storms are much more spectacular to watch than Stasis / Recalls. | ||

Really good game. you make it sound like Flash was ahead and movie came back. It was 2 base flash to 5 base Movie one point with movie 200/200 and Flash 130/200. | ||

Flash was never ahead, but he's made tons of comebacks in that situation when the Protoss has backed off and allowed him to stabilize. How many times have you seen his opponent do pointless recalls into his main while losing 2-3 bases to a push around the edge of the map? | ||
