It was talked about a little while ago. The fact that they play with such high ping to the Korean/NA servers they tend to shy aware from templar based builds because of how lag effects storm usage. When you virtually eliminate templar from the game Phoenix/Colossus is one of the better, non all in, builds

You don't even need to go storm in PvT if you don't want to. (At least not until the very late game)

Yup, mass Vikings > Phoenix/Colossus.

The point of Phoenix/Colossus is to make the terran player make too many vikings and remove the dps from the bio army..

Idra, Whitera, and TLO all did plenty I think. Maka and Tester were the biggest disappointments that come to mind. But they mostly just played in GSL.

I don't see how the Phoenixes can really protect the Colossi since the Vikings can just target fire. In any moving engagement the Vikings will kill 1 or 2 Phoenixes for each volley. The Phoenixes cannot get too close or they get shredded by Marine fire.
In a direct engagement you just target fire the Colossi and then the Phoenixes are worthless.
