Haha! Just tried this and during the potentially best Archon toilets ever witnessed by man, an Infestor neurals my Mothership and I did not bring an observer... That's backfire.

Is the new cost reduction on forge upgrades sufficient to justify an expenditure on the Protoss Shields Upgrade(s)?

It would make your Mothership (and other air units), Archons, buildings and gateway units more resilient. Since you have a mixed air/ground army, rely on photon cannons for early defense and make heavy use of archons which do not really benefit from armour upgrades; I wonder if protoss shields might complement this style well.

Have 1 question. If he goas roach ling and when you defend it, is it optimal to just counter him with 6-7 gates and finishthe game or it is risky, since he stayed on 2 bases still(because he can reproduce those roach ling fast)?

Is this build working for anyone anymore? I've been using it for a while but it barely seems to work as Zergs just play against it much better now.

Mostly roach/hydra timings before the 3rd is actually secure. Also good muta play messed me up quite a bit. I stopped using the build because it seems like the zergs I played against were used to it and knew what build was coming and how to punish it. It worked for a while and tons of people on the ladder would just bitch at me. Funny how that works out.

Mass roach destroys me every time.
Chargelot archons are just horrible against them, doesn't matter if I'm in melee range after a vortex, against a ball of 80 roaches I lose every time.

From a quick run over this seems like brown style with the fast third off minimal air units which I have been using to great success on ladder tbh. The future of protoss is their air. My 2 favourite builds are brown style or a double stargate into carrier mothership hts and a faster third. Your build however seems to rush mothership too fast for my liking and a mass corrupter switch will kill you. you need more then 3 gateways and 2 air units to hold off some kind of zerg all in. Youre basically hoping they dont attack you and allow you time to raise an army. chargelot phoenix or void ray with ht support into carrier mothership and storm is currently the easiest way to attain the ultimate pvz deathball imo as late game transitions rely on you tech swithcing and him not rolling you. Whereas the slow build up style basically is all about you just not dieing and getting more cannons and expoing (best on shakuras).
