Perfect EMP and same upgrades actually makes you even with protoss. Of course, on the other way, a few storms and you're completely dead. That's what makes you love this match up as a terran

Its called "defender advantage". Never take a fight if you can attack opponents base and army in the same moment, because some of your units is attacking the base ->free-loss.

um, what? Because it was a straight up engagement the entire time opposed to Happy targeting the nexus first and then fighting afterwards. There was 0 reason for MC's units to lock onto the CC or workers when higher priority targets were firing on them, and it was 3-3 versus 2-1 at that point.

Maybe you should look up what defender's advantage means again.

Definition of defender's advantage (http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Defender's_Advantage): Defender's Advantage refers to the well-known idea that a player is defending an attack at his/her base is at an inherent advantage stemming from the fact that the attack is occurring at a minimal distance from the defender's production facilities and that the defender has additional time to produce units (due to map attack distances).

Defender's advantage pretty much means any factor causing a defending player to have an advantage over an attacking opponent.

Ramps, chokes, pre-set concaves, faster rallies, static defense, and yes, buildings which draw your opponents fire are all possible factors.

EDIT: Referring to your definition.. fair enough, I'd argue that definition needs to be expanded though.

Um, yes, and Happy did have that defender's advantage of having his reinforcements at his base, forcing MC to attack up a ramp, and forming a concave beforehand with the CC blocking MC's zealots from spreading out evenly. It wasn't enough because MC was too far ahead. That fight would have been even more of a complete slaughter if it occurred on an open field. What are you even attempting to argue, seriously?

Yes you do. You don't have the garbage definition that liquipedia gives that could've been put there by any random contributor but he still has advantages as the defender. Even if warpin negates the reinforcement distance that still gives terran the advantage of their reinforcements being closer when fighting at his base compared to fighting midfield. Also like I said, ramp, concave, blocking CC.
