Sadly that's how the game is balanced. You can't 'get rid' of it no matter how bullshit that aspect of forcefield is. Increasing rampsize just doesnt work and changing the size of forcefields would royally fuck with all of protoss


There is absolutely nothing wrong with the tactic in the first place. It is always 100% a mistake from the Zerg when it works.


What are you supposed to do? keep a force capable of defeating 4 sentries and infinite zealots in your main at all times?

Yeah i think it's unreasonable to be able to have a force defend that. Scarlett should've had at least one overlord in the dead space on that map for vision, usually she's very good with overlord spread.

FF should be removed, give them something other. FF killed so many exciting games.

You mean made them more exciting, right? #protossforlyfe

The fact that 3 sentries (the amount needed for 'unlimited forcefields') can win someone the game shouldn't be possible.

The amount for unlimited FF is 6.


Pretty sure its 3 full energy sentries (which would be 6 non full). These attacks only work because the 3 can hold the main for as long as the protoss hits their FF

She did have one, and in fact had the warp prism move right by it.

And here come the Scarlett fanboys. Funny how we don't see this move more often if it's apparently so broken. Violet gave no fucks about Pucks' forcefields. The Sentry drop has been deflected with ease time and time again.

An endangered match-up in this generation, the previous generations enjoyed them aplenty but sadly due to years of overuse they are now growing rare.

They are ok because you can react immediately. FF can prevent your reaction.

Still I feel like HuK will feel confident against Scarlett. Likely choice right there.

A legit strategy that punishes players for being out of position? nerf it

I don't want to devolve this thread to a discussion on how retarded forcefield is. Sorries.

PS Jer99, I sincerely hope you are being sarcastic there.


Why would you think I'm being sarcastic? Scarletts army wasn't even near her main base, and if she had overlords in decent position on the map she would have seen the warp prism in enough time to bring back the army. Lots of mistakes on Scarletts side.

Take the previous game for example where puck wasn't looking and Scarlett was able to get her entire army on pucks army, completely demolishing it. That's also an exmaple of being out of position, and lost the game only because of that.

Not to mention the fact hat she was floating almost 2k minerals for at least half the game, she could have had well over 4 expansions at that point with a higher drone count.

... i don't know what else to say, she only lost ~20 drones (which she could have replaced easily with 2k minerals..), and a lair which she remade pretty fast.

What? Like ... whaaaat? When they are dropped its too late to pull ... Sentries were dropped on creep, away from ramp, units were warpd in before a FF was placed ... really?

Well the worst player of those, maybe on par with HuK. But yea puCK is way more unpredictable/cheesy than HuK I guess.

In this particular case it was 100% Scarlett's fault, she seen it coming. I probably shouldn't have even said anything.
