This will let protoss continue to be stagnant as race. I like what Stork said about protoss just accepting the fate and not working hard on their game, some protoss became slackers starting to even get beat in pvt, if protoss starts to work hard instead of waiting for new maps, the imbalance will be compensated at least somewhat and innovations will come naturally as well. Protoss had always an option to go for cheesy plays on totm and they really didn't try to adapt to the map, the bad map is gone anyway. This race has the biggest room for improvement clearly as far as the average skill concerned, and this situation is the opportunity to improve strategically and skillwise.

Also there is nothing else i would love to see in starcraft more, than a lot of radically unususal protoss play, why would anybody not want that? DAs, pvz arbiters, scouts, various combos, more pvz web, pvz carriers, pvz upgrades, etc, the silliest stuff will work if the opponent is unprepared and was practicing five hours a day versus some standard fe-sair, Backho-Calm is the recent proof, i think protoss strategic research should be encouraged.

Its not like the zerg started using queens on a regular basis or 1 hatch guardian builds of some sort to dominate the protoss so hard again.
