Stalkers get fried so fast against that many colossus one would think having a least a few voidrays would make a huge difference. Will be interesting to see how it plays out long term if it will be viable or not. Making a star gate switch is dangerous in PvP because it's a hefty investment and opens up a timing for your opponent to attack you. PvP has so little defender's advantage that if you're behind on just a handful of supply, you could lose the battle and then the game. | ||

At least thats how i see it. | ||

It at least would have been a more even battle if Hasu spread out as iNcontroL suggested. Well he suggested Hasu winning, but even coming out even Hasu had better economy. Regardless, I'm glad MC won. Love him or hate him, it's just more interesting with MC around (<3) On May 22 2011 13:38 sjschmidt93 wrote: Colossi are just better, that's pretty much it. P units have a lot of hit points. Actually that got me thinking. Those + armor upgrades didn't really do that much when you have 32-40 supply in Archons. It's still better to have them for your Zealots, Stalkers, and Colossi, but perhaps MC only upgrading attack was the most efficient thing he could do, more corner cutting while behind. I think if he spent that money on a second forge and armor in that game, he might have lost the necessary critical mass to win the battles he needed, due to fewer units and the relative weakness of armor upgrades against attack upgraded colossi. | ||

Also note that colossus are much, much more efficient than the reaver was in many battle situations because they are far less vulnerable to sniping and don't require extensive micro in order to attack effectively. Plus storm is a lot weaker. | ||

Huk won. they can but you need a ton of hts I believe......just so you blanket the entire enemy army. Having 2 or 3 storms is kinda worthless in pvp (unlike verse terran or zerg) you need like 6-8 storms to be cost effective | ||

Hopefully that'll become the standard PvP with time and tech switches and unit comps will be better. well PvP end game is colossi maybe you can w8 MS but too risky carriers totally useless, voidrays if you can make the timing you ll win | ||
