Warp prism drops are indeed useful, but I really don't see the point of putting a collosus in the warp prism. If you lose it, it will set you pretty far behind. ideally you should never lose it. if it gets too hot, just sit on your hands for a little bit. even if you just do a few pokes every now and again it pays for itself, no doubt. the only time you risk losing it is when you overextend. speed WP is stupidly fast. you can take a few viking hits but nothing can ever catch you as long as you're careful. then you can always take towers no matter where your army is by simply sitting on it for a sec with your colo then it's off to the races again! | ||

I think it's seriously underutilized and it's a great way to improve multitasking and army-reinforcements. Even without a colossus, you can use it to warp in a few zealots here and there. it really helped me with my camera hotkeys because you HAVE to use them in order to do everything else you need to do while harassing so yes I approve of this message | ||

just tried this a few times on my alt and got destroyed by the counterattack, but the amount of damage you can deal with a single colossus is pretty awesome | ||

I saw them back then but forgot Sickness did those colossi drops! like his standard opening that the GM does, as soon as he drops the cc he does a weird marine hellion push that isnt all in at all | ||

It'll be very technical, since one mistake will punish you a lot. But if you can pull it off, it'll be very powerful. Or course, You'll need "Warpprism Speed" to make it do-able. I feel so powerful right now (~9 months later) :D Love the build. With proper scouting, i don't see any big flaws. But i wonder how you deal with 2-base sky terran? | ||
