Yes sorry english no good. Good Zerg in korea don't use drop to win. Be it early-mid-late game. They just SWARM you to death as long they can defend the deathball! | ||

Even with 10 SPEEDLOTs also can't seems to beat them! You dont have to defend drops with chargelots. Its a common mistake for almost every Protoss. You need HT for feedback or blinkstalkers. Let MEdivac without energy and snipe them. The momento T see 4-5 stalkers waiting, he will turn arround. If you buff Zealots and Stalkers, this will be the end of TvP early game. Can you just imagine the Xgate all ins? Not even 10 bunkers will be able to stop them. Just learn to deal with drops. Spread observers and always let 1-2 HTs in your base+1 cannon. A week ago David Kim said in SOTG that from Korea(South) Blizzard is receiving feddback from Terrans saying they cant drop anymore due to the Photon Overcharge. MScore can as well recall units if you see a doom drop. I think Protoss got enough tolos to defend drops, but are not used to make them work. | ||

(the current stat shows that more people are saying no. no+buff others) Buff others is a stupid question. I mean, when your options are a) buff warp prism b) buff anything from the complement set of the warp prism ... well, answer b) is simply a thousand times more likely to contain "your favorite" buff. And "no+buff other" is in the lead you say? "yes+no" is even further in the lead... it's a 3option poll. You can't combine them as you want. | ||

gateway units are balanced around the use of warpgate. If gateway units are buffed, warpgate research needs to be nerfed. I would love this though. Placing warpgate research on like twilight council whilst buffing gateway units would be awesome. | ||

I mislead you by saying not exactly what the first guy said he said yes no buff SOMETHING ELSE That means those who chose no 3, they are against this wp buff according to what this guy said. | ||

Eliminate the warp gate entirely. Give protoss a strong T1 instead. | ||

I'd go even further - make warpgate mechanix available only within nexus' vicinity. the warpgate does more dmg to protos than good  | ||

Zerg have speedlings and mutas. What's the Terran equivalent of 10 mutas in your main? Drops. What's the Terran equivalent of 20 lings in your 3rd? Drops. See the pattern? Terran relies on drops to do everything, which was why medivacs got the boosters. Protoss is in the same boat, although they also have proxy pylons that sort of work like ling runbys. | ||

Protoss is in the same boat, although they also have proxy pylons that sort of work like ling runbys. 10 mutas in main will be cleaned up by turret + marines coming out of barracks and won't do any damage. 16 mutas with at least +1 will be able to do significant damage. that's 32 army supply and 1700/1700 compared to the cost of a drop which in turn does not affect your army strength that isn't really comparable. again, ling runbys to the 3rd are easily countered by walloffs and possibly a widow mine. (supply depot walls and often times one bunker with a marine inside at the 3rd were the norm in WOL). the other bases are pf so ling runbys are a nonfactor there. and i think as i have elaborated in my previous post that innovation tvz shows very clearly that zerg is in dire need some sort of reliable harassment potential that doesn't cost at least 1700/1700 and 32 army supply. | ||

Maybe you should remove ling speed or burrow altogether, eh, so zerg can harass more? Or maybe zergs need viable cloaked harassing unit, which was pretty fine in BW, = lurker. THEY HAVE SWARMHOSTTTT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! | ||
