If Terrans can handle two drops at the same time, Protosses can handle two warp prisms! Great stuff from Astrea!


Some of us have been saying this for literally over 10 years.

And yet still Protoss players refuse to do it most of the time.


It's not about the control, it's about Robotics Facility production being at a premium.

Terrans are going to be producing Medivacs to heal their bio anyway.

Group C already rolling ahead on B-stream with Serral vs SpeCial

considering the potential for turtle mech games it's prolly a good idea to stay on schedule

Probbaly because most protoss units arent really that much of drop material.


That's not the point. How many games over the years have been decided because the single Warp Prism enabling the Protoss attack dies?

Protoss players during many different portions of the meta have made the Warp Prism absolutely essential for controlling everything from Immortals to High Templar while still being important for reinforcement purposes.

And yet for as valuable as they are the usual thing is to only have one out at a time. It's insane to me. Oh Robotics facility production time is at a premium? So is factory or Starport time for Terran, MAKE ANOTHER ONE, Protoss production facilities cost only a tiny fraction more than Terrans do.

It's simply a bad habit Protoss players have, a corner they choose to cut CONSTANTLY, and one that consistently creates a weak spot that gets exploited.

I am happy the only group I totally missed today was group B, finally arrived at Katowice but still gotta commute to the hostel. Perfectly in time for group C and especially D with the best terrans in the world

Is this the point where Astrea regrets turning around with his adept/immortal force to try to play late game?

It's so stupid that banes 1 shot probes. That's probably one of the main reasons Toss has been such a volatile race for all of SC2.

Ey, come on. Reynor made it look silly, but build more sim city, get more vision, have a cannon, get some defensive upgrades..

Yeah, Astrea was a bit too much on the Archon, because Reynor keep rotating the lingbane away from them and fight them with Roach - Ravager instead. Replacing the Archon with more Stalker might have been better imo.

Baneling runbys are a thing in all 3 match ups. This isn't why Protoss is a volatile race.

No.

Robo units and Protoss' ability to keep their numbers up has been defining their ability to win for the entirety of StarCraft 2, outside of Skytoss metas. The notion that Terran Starport units have had a comparable importance is just wrong.

Its the +5 baneling hp. Can do runbys while still holding the push. Turned every zerg into life.

You use your starport to counter protoss robo units though? Like Vikings heavy versus colossus and/or mix with medivacs vs the rest
Killing the starport (gas units in general but particularly from the starport in PvT) units of the terran has a strong effect, similarly to killing the robo units

LOL ok dude.

Tanks aren't important vs Zerg. Vikings aren't important vs Protoss. I must be mistaken, Terran only ever wins every game in every match up with Marines and Marauders.

Well, the difference is that Starport buildtime is premium specifially because of medivacs so you have them anyway. Protoss has more important things they need to produce from their robo
