Time warp is a compliment to that, it allows you to put warp on a ramp and bounce between two bases and kill buildings. Not so effective versus zerg perhaps, but it doesnt have to be. The problem with the ability is that it becomes more effective the larger the army is, ie most effective in a death ball. On top of that it reduces micro by disabling, just like fungal and I am not a fan of that. Still, it is miles ahead of the old syphon + entomb | ||

You could just build one less stalker and instead get a zealot and still have a considerably larger army when you attack your opponent, for example. | ||

but you are right, I would probably not do 4 worker gas since pretty sure I will forget fixing it later. I think tw is really great, espacially because of its duraation. unlike every other speel, its does not matter for secons, or as long as combat. its a long ass spell. we wont go "TIMEWARPUUUUU!" and watch whole armies destroyed, instead it is this annoying distracting, annoying ability, that manipulates the map, not change it. | ||

Just because timewarp replaced entombed does not mean you have to use it in the same way. It's more geared to be a supportive spell a bit like forcefield to help control the flow of a ground battle. Pulsar beam is the harrassment ability and it can work quite well, it can even be used as a tool for tactical strikes against enemy tech structures. | ||

Timewarp is a support spell to give oracle a role later on in the game. Funny how people think that timewarp would replace entomb. It does not. | ||

Its already a good multi-use ability, can slow pushes, catch retreating armies, very useful for catching drops and muta harass too. I also imagine you could use it to slow down reinforcements from your opponent. | ||

Well, when the inevitable combat nerfs come a-swingin', it will be wise to salvage whatever harass potential it can get. | ||
