Zealots with more hp?! better abilities for stalkers!?
Are you freaking kidding me? Those ideas will 100% break the game as zealots and stalkers atm are some of the best and most balanced protoss units.

I believe he wants stronger early game units cause of how hard it is to defend an early push from a terran opponent but imo its not protoss units that are the problem....its that damn marine!

So terrans can have a hellion with more HP, a warhound that does extra damage against all mechanical units (read: all protoss units except zealots). Zergs can have the "new and improved" hydras, swarmlords, scary ass ultras with charge, banelings that can move underground and a new unit that is basically designed to counter colossi. But got forbid they make zealots and stalkers a little better because that would completely break the game.

Right.

Yes it would. ALL new zerg improvements and units are pretty late tier. Stronger zealots and stalkers would ruin the early game in PvZ.
Tbh that should be really easy to figure out.

Direct quote from WhiteRa:
"This is not enough. And it's all really expensive, high tech. We need upgrades [for existing units]. Like for the Tier 1, Tier 2 units you use all game, to make them work lategame. More HP for Zealots, better upgrades for Stalkers, cheaper Immortals with abilities."

Emphasis mine.
