Protoss seems to be doing very well in the past month.

+ Show Spoiler +
Huk win MLG and all 5 Protoss in the GSL has made it past the round of 32 in a pretty convincing way.


This is before patch 1.42, which begs the question. Is the Sad Zelot now a Happy Zelot.

The Protoss metagame has shifted significantly from Gateway + Collosi to a varity of strats involving warp prisms and stargate play.

In my personal opinion the days of doom and gloom has passed and there is hope. Protoss is on a winning streak.

I think its time for a Happy Zelot.

I think its way too early to tell, but indeed there is a really bright future for protoss!

I don't think the new patch (which is obviously good for protoss) will make a huge difference, but things may be getting better!

as a Zerg I hope in the future that Protoss continues with success ... as long as it is without mass collosus ... that unit IMO makes for uninteresting games and takes away from the skill of players like HuK and HerO but things like stargate/gateway/warp prism play lets them do their thing with great micro

I'll quote myself from the patch topic:

On November 10 2011 00:59 windsupernova wrote:
Seriously shut up with the crying, even in Code S this season due to the new format a lot of Terrans have dropped out to Code A

RO 32

19 T-> 8 advance(Around 42%)
5 P ->5 advance (100%)
8 Zerg -> 3 advance (37.5%)

Hell one can even argue more that Zerg is now doing badly, but you know? I won't because I actually watched the freaking games.And with Code A full of Z and P I can see a lot of new Z and P getting to Code S next season.

IEM NY:

Zerg in 1st and 2nd and 3rd, P at 4th

IEM Guangzhou
Zerg in 1st
P in 2nd
T in 3rd
P at 4th

MLG Orlando:

P in 1st and 2nd place
T in 3rd
Z in 4th

P and Z are obviously winning stuff at a competitive level. Z and P have been doing fine in Code S too, and in Code A so far all the races are pretty evenly distributed(17 P 16 T 15 Z)

So stop acting as if it is impossible to win as either P or Z because its not. Stop blaming balance because of your ladder FAILS.Hell, even winrates from TLPD are around 50%. Stop acting as if the game was terribly imbalanced when all evidence shows that its not even that bad.

Sad Zealot my ass.

protoss are doing well because of zealots too, they should use them more tbh. They do great DPS and take forever to kill!
EDIT: less stalkers vs. T is very beneficial btw

Haha, epic IdrA quote. I hope P does better but really I just want T nerfed so that for once they are at/around 50% w/l ratio since release, and not way above like they have been.

they've only been above 50% in the GSL... a big reason because the korean terran players are just better than the koreans of the other races. it's true.

It is too early to say anything about that.

Of course a Protoss won in a recent tournament, however on HuK's way to the top he had to play a lot of Protoss that is why I don't like this tournament win as some kind of evident whatsoever. And to say that Protoss are doing quite well in the past month is just wrong.

And tbh I don't like threads with an opening of 3-4 sentences. If you want to discuss something with the community please put some effort in your post.
