I find that if Protoss can't do anything to limit Terrans momentum (perhaps getting away with a risky 3rd or some solid phoenix/oracle harassment. Seriously, Phoenixes are total guttercunts in the right hands) then they're in trouble once the boys get pulled. Alternatively, the terran can play a much longer game with extra oc's and tons of viking/ghost and maybe some other units and just hoep the Protoss doesn't make a proper ht transition. Idk much about this counter but I've heard it's ok as you're bloody hard to attack into if you want to be and at some point the mass phoenix loses value. I think it's probably viable, and it's the bread and butter of all the Chinese Protosses I've noticed. Classic used it vs Maru in his Code S semis, so he thinks it's viable. You do see the occasional korean besides him do it too. | ||

I love Phoenixes, but every time I end up with thousands of minerals banked up  . | ||

One of my first memories of StarCraft II is actually seeing a 2v2 showmatch at Blizzcon or something and seeing Speedlings on Creep and just shouting "Wow, look at 'em go!" | ||
