If I had to chose between 1 DT and 1 banchee I would take banchee, but the thing is it takes 60 sec to build a banchee and you need one starport with techlab to do it.

Where as you can just warpin as many DTs as you feel like when you get up your dark shrine.

So I prefere DTs

I do understand both arguments, but just pure statistics it is way easier to transition out of Banshees without being way behind.

Every time any Protoss goes DT's and does no damage you are pretty far behind. Banshees you are also behind, I realize that, but you are not really far behind, you just teched a little faster then normal and spent little more money on 2 Banshees/cloak. It isn't near as much of a investment as DT's are.

The fact that Banhsees are ranged and flying is a huge bonus too. Pretty easy to get them away without loosing them.


did you watch the series between san and scf0u? i think he proved the utility of dts with that series alone.


You mean against a player who had poor control? That same player was able to eliminate DTs instantly as long as he had a Raven, and even AFTER that he just used scans. In late game, scans aren't a big deal to have because you have a multiple OC's going on at once.

The ONLY reason sanZenith was able to have map control through DTs was because sCfou didn't control is Raven well.

A lesson without pain is meaningless for nothing can be gained without giving something in return.

Zealot, colossus, apple.

But really everyone knows it's a joke question. Nobody is serious about it (i hope), but it's still fun to discuss.

I'm laughing at how horribly biased the OP is.

On-topic: I would prefer to have banshees (I'm a random player and bancheese is much easier for me to transition from than DT cheese which leaves you pretty all-in gateway only)

i prefer dt's. the only thing i have against it is when you use it as an opening and fails, u pretty much lost the game. cant say the same for a banshee opening tbh

The thing about banshees is that in TvP, if the toss doesnt get a robo fast enough, hes fucked.

Why does everyone has this misconception that Protoss units have no build time? It takes 5 seconds to warp in a DT and then the Warp Gate is occupied for 45 seconds.

So to build a DT it takes 50 seconds total. And a DT cuts into your core unit production where as a Banshee only cuts into Vikings/Medievacs/etc.
I have a beard. I'm unprofessional.

Banshee is clearly superior as a build order because u can transition to other then just one unit. Also banshee for the mobility.
yeah yeah im going

When playing terran you must have detection at 7:30, no matter what. The same isn't valid in PvX, so early game, definitely Banshees. In late game however dt's are superior.
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously but there it is. Life finds a way

4-gate is just too fast, but rushing dts could work although its much more risky than opening banshees.

I vote for the LEGO banshee. It's the strongest because when you kill it, it just rebuilds itself.

DT's are cute but I would rather have a banshee in my protoss arsenal. Flying DT that can damage without minimal losses. DT's are still nice however I think banshees are more cost efficient.
