Then the phoenix will simply lift up half of your remaining marauders and clean up.

My point is, after a certain point, colo/phoenix can't be cracked with simple mmm+viking.


Terrans imo should try to mix in one or two thors. Pheonix are light units and tend to clump.

Should be fun.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

Yes, most Terrans build 1-2 Thor to deter clumping but that doesn't stop P from spreading out his phoenix when engaging. That doesn't do anything to the result of the battle as the Thor should be attacking ground units rather than the spread out phoenixes. As an example, you should watch game 3 of GSTL day 1, Startale vs fOu.

Phoenix collo has been figured out for months. Vikings do very well against both phoenix and colossus... make a lot of them.


Boxer vs Tester boxer puts on a phoenix/collo clinic.

Wonder if you could adjust the tech availability of the infantry upgrades like with the nitro packs for the reapers? Could have concussion grenades not available until the factory also.

Outdated. Since the patch, 2stargate chrono phoenix = 2port reactor viking production. Used to work though.

Also, always enjoy artosis vods ~ thx yo

I think the conclusion of it being easier for the Terran in this situation best describes it, it is not impossible to hold off, but there is a lot more pressure on the Protoss to not fuck up, one missed force field, not enough sentries, too many sentres, positioning, unit combination, choosing the right time to tech whilst getting pressured...

...

He can't chronoboost Pheonix for ever, if so he will delay Colossus/upgrades, which isn't that great of a trade off, and it is not like the Pheonix cost any less, with a certain income he still can only get a certain amount of Phoenix/Colossus
