But I would rather have 3 zealots and a Dragoon than a sair with Dweb. | ||

Barring a corsair-consume patch, you're gonna have a really hard time using them because they don't deal any damage, and at 125 mana per d-web you're not gonna be getting much milage out of d-web. Plus you've got to target each d-web individually which is a micro nightmare and you'll probably have them in a corsair cloud that would be vulnerable to EMP. Unlike Arbiters, if they are EMP'd they have no redeeming qualities. The real burden is the opportunity cost in terms of other units as someone else has already mentioned. It boils down to: if you win a game with corsairs, you almost definitely would have won the game without corsairs. The converse is probably not true | ||

Why not just put down more gateways and pump arbiters? | ||

Why not just put down more gateways and pump arbiters? You don't even need that =/ you need just one stargate. You don't need to rush the fleet beacon either since you need your sairs to charge. I think it's viable on outsider (not optimal though) where you have a lot of easy bases and the natural is so cramped up. Plus dropship play is common and sairs can really neutralise that. You can web the entire natural with like.. 3-4 webs pretty easily and then you can really cause some pain. | ||

D-web has about the same AoE. The only disadvantage in my opinion is that zealots won't be able to attack and that you don't have recalls. | ||

Complaining about buying the research and upgrades, but don't you have to do that for arbiters too? D-web has about the same AoE. The only disadvantage in my opinion is that zealots won't be able to attack and that you don't have recalls. Except you know that huge AOE cloak they provide and the fact that stasis is way way better than dweb And I might add that having recall is so fucking gamebreaking it's not even a decision between the two | ||
