State was nice enough to play some off race games against me and I managed to use this a few times.

While I harass with prisms most of the game there are a few points where I'm employing this tactic. For instance, at the start when I pressure with colossus I warp in zealots into his main rather than to beef up my attack. Would warping in more stuff into my army have won the game? I don't know for sure, but I don't think so. Nevertheless, state couldn't defend both places at once and lost a lot of SCVs.

There's also a time when he's pressuring my base and when most protoss would be warping in stuff into their army, I warp in Zealots into his main. Right decision? Again, I don't know. But I think it worked quite well.

You can judge the effectiveness for yourself.

If only I was as good as you.

I tried this a few times, but...

I can't multitask well enough between the forcefields, army positioning, target firing of vikings etc. to put down a warp prism and warp in zealots at the same time. (._.)

i like the idea though, puts a ton of pressure on the opponent if executed well..

Im not great at Multitasking either, but what i found worked well was to get the Warp prism into a place that there wasnt vision of, warp in a round there before the battle, then start the battle and quickly jump over and send them to their min line.

After playing around with this last night i was really surprised at well it worked! Thanks for posting this Plexa!!
