It is obvious Blizzard is expanding the meta, which is a good thing. Now every race has to pay attention on their mini map and spend late game bank on static defenses. *flies away* | ||

The Terran need the great harass because the Protoss army crushes the Terran army in a straight up fight. If the Terran does not harass well it will lose, period. So I disagree that Protoss need a harass buff. If Blizzard was looking to make the game more dynamic with a harass buff, maybe that would be OK if we in turn took away the nexus cannon, which keeps protoss auto safe until at least 4 medivacs are out. | ||

I dunno if this buff will be good though... In the late game, Protoss is going to be unbeatable now. Smart Protoss will get their death ball going and max said death ball at around 180 supply. Then they can just fly Warp Prisims around and make Zealots or DTs and destroy everything in their path while engaging the main army. But since this is a late game situation, I guess the Warp Prism speed upgrade comes with the same concerns. | ||

Its not nearly as mechanically simple as you make it sound, and all toss has to do to avoid that is to move the prism back out over empty space and its safe. You have to not only have a speedvac nearby with marines already underneath it, you then have to hit the boost and hope to catch the prism in the short 8 second window the afterburners work for, and shift drop marines along its path, while at the same time stimming those dropped marines in the hope to get two or three in range by the time the prism makes it back over a cliff edge. And these comparisons between turbovacs and speedprisms equality are absolutely ridiculous in so many ways..most glaringly is the fact that tvp is built around harassment of the toss because an untouched toss is absolutely unbeatable in maxed out straight up fights. To give toss a much easier way to not only harass, but simultaneously punish the terrans harass bc they wont have as much left at home to defend is going in the complete wrong direction with this match up. | ||

Tell that to herO when he played Taeja in proleague from a week ago. This isn't WoL, terran has a superior counter to every single protoss unit. | ||

But since this is a late game situation, I guess the Warp Prism speed upgrade comes with the same concerns. In the late game, all good Protoss players will have already upgraded warp prism speed so that they can harass anyway. In other words, this buff does absolutely nothing to affect the late game. EDIT: It's also funny that you called everyone else a bronze noob when you missed this fact >.> (Although I do agree that there is a ton of silly complaining going on, much like in every other patch/ nerf/ buff thread.) | ||
