EPTI wonder whats the reason behind those changes in meta? emplars are so much more expensive than zealots, require time to gain energy, and since tanks will fire on each other + zealots will do some dmg, they achieve essentially the same effect as storm...
Zealot bombing is no longer popular?

If you re going shuttle play, Templars are cheaper than zealot, half the mineral cost specifically. While you wouldn't have many other ways to spend your gas. It costs a lot to make enough shuttles and trade constantly. Ht energy is fairly quick to cast the first storm. Also it s rare that pro clamp their tank to the point a zealot bomb would do better than storm, given storm has much larger area of effect . you could also catch a bunch of vultures or whatever. Finally the priority mechanics makes it that the tanks/vults will target the incoming army and not the ht, allowing you to do a ton of damage. | ||
