So while listening to the protoss buffs section of the show I came up with the SICKEST SICK CITY idea for a protoss buff. I know how much artosis liked the time stop ability in its initial form from the oracle as a different means of harassment..and it got me to thinking...why not give some type of benefit to the protoss rather than damage to the opponent...
So I don't know what this ability would be called, how much energy it would cost or anything..but the CONCEPT im a genius ok: So how about say the Oracle or phoenix for a large amount of energy...creates hallucinated workers...or even just casts a spell on the worker line that awards minerals to the protoss for every mineral mined for the opposing side. I don't know if it should take away from the opponents, but giving to the protoss would be AWESOME. I am not sure what you would do to take it away or if you could, but that could be figured out by smarter people than me. I could see so many more quick tech switches happening as a result, I could see pheonix openings being good in TvP. I think it could give a slight buff to some all ins or timings.but it would have to be super refined. I could also see it allowing for faster tech or nexus.. or just a little bit thicker defense. It could even give more money to do things like a zealot warp prism harass or whatever. In any case. its a totally different concept of harassment.
anyways just wanted to get that out before i forgot about it!

See: Spy infiltrating Ore Refinery in C&C: Red Alert 2.
I wasn't crazy about the concept then, and I'm not crazy about it now.

Artosis' predictions: Alicia, Moonglade, CranK, Snute. That turned out well!

Great idea! I also want some upgrade for the tank, so it fires 3 times faster then it does now. Giving it to terran would be AWESOME!!!!! I could see mech being good in TvP! + Show Spoiler +
On a sidenote: TvP is fine: http://i.imgur.com/9orDwMj.png. Why would you change a mu that is fine? The last time blizzard did that, was with TvZ in WOL, and it gave us great times, didnt it ;D?

Dan my man, make Meta less SC2 tactic related and more community/gossip related. It's doable in a positive manner, doesnt have to be a drama-searching show like some others but conversations like.
" What form is Mvp in right now? " " Which will be the next team player X joins? " " Quality of production in WCG Eu vs WCG Am"
etc...
Not all of us who watch SC2 play so much anymore...

Please do not do this. There's a million resources for drama.

Just watch State of the Game? Meta is perfect the way it is now.

Logged in specifically to say that, whilst I don't doubt this advice is given with the best of intentions, please don't follow it. I'm not a super devoted viewer but I have so far enjoyed Meta exactly because the focus is on the game and not so much on the scene. That's my Humble Opinion. Keep doing what you're doing Mr Tosis>

i want to listen starcraft 2 game related. i do not want gossip. keep doing what u doing, great job.

It'd be nice if they talked about some terran stuff soon, but I realise that he's not had many terran guests :p
