Shouldn't even be in the game imo. Easily the worst ability gained in HotS

In game 3, I think he could have flanked the Protoss army with the map control he had. I was shaking my head when he turtled units back into his natural, letting a couple zealots kill scvs and deny mining at his third. Then eating the storm at the choke with his whole army while losing all mining at third, which wouldn't have happened if he had his army divided up but in close proximity to flank or defend his third.
He was afraid of the wrap prism in the main. A 3 base Protoss can actually do multipronged attacks just as good as Terran. Wrap in a few zealots and attack third, have main army attack natural and wrap prism in main.

What holds the current record for the most imbalanced GSL Code S Ro32? Is it still 2011 October?

If they use their energy on that, how will they kill literally all of my workers with lazors?

A second oracle, and it will be worse because you can't even run away SCVs or defend with marines anymore.

Remember when mothership core had detection? That was so broken but soooooo good. I miss beta mothership core. I liked the slow but more powerful one.
I miss WoL beta Mothership.
That Artosis game on Steppes of War was magnificent .

Oh shi- I completely missed that warp prism. Then again, Protoss also had blink and collosi so main was very vulnerable even without the warp prism.

You may well be right. I really like the MSC, but I agree that the timewarp is one obnoxious spell.
Edit/ Meanwhile, back to the game.
