LoL terrans are bitching about Warp Prism speed. The irony. I guess hellbat drops are fine, but faster warp prisms... God forbid. Now they just have to add some kind of harassing unit, so we can actually use the prisms.

speed medivacs same problem

Phoenix

No.


Um. a phoenix takes like 2000 shots to kill a single medivac. They can literally unload all their marines and kill the phoenix before it kills the medivac.


Why would you have only one phoenix anyway? But yes, they kill Medivacs rather slowly compared to vikings.

People are saying it drops entire armies. It does have to stop and warp you know. It is basically equal to speedvacs. Less original speed than boosted, but no cooldown. Protoss

I don't mind the speed buffs honestly.

What i mind is the patch where they made Warp prisms like 70 percent shields and 30 percent hull. Now that they are faster, they are more likely to get away before taking any real dmg.


At least with medivacs, the dmg done to the medivac is permanent. Well effectively permanent as no one has the Apm to repair them yet.

I wish they were more like 40 percent shields and 60 percent hull.

our giant radars cost more gas then any unit we make in tvp, gas is very limited to us, and it wont even help you shoot it down.

btw, you should probably respect your elders... Dwf as been around here quite a long time and he s a very stable high lvl terra.
so shove your idiotic statements up your arse.

I don't even understand what this argument is. Whether warp prisms or speed medivacs are "better" at doom drops? Even if speed medivacs are better, isn't Terran supposed to be a great deal more mobile anyway? Why is the assumption that all three races should be equivalent in every regard?

As far as actual constructive discussion: what is the proper Terran response to warp prism harass play now? Vikings don't work to chase it down, they can only sit around and shoot the warp prism if it flies in, which you could do anyway by leaving your army at home. If you stay at home with all your vikings, they're wasted supply, and if you stay at home with your whole army, you've done exactly what Protoss wanted in the first place anyway.

So... turrets? I'm thinking place buildings with a lot of small crevasses, and leave hellbats in them to fight zealots. SCVs can repair if need be, and that should buy time for the next round of production to come out. Maybe a few marines, too, since hellbats don't do so well against DTs. Leaving ~10 supply at home should be safe (I think).


Just use standard TvT defense strat: 1 Viking, 1 Turret, 1 Bunker at each base.

No, but seriously all you truly need is a Viking and a Turret to kill the fragile prism. You don't have to chase it at all.

Obvious question: one viking and one turret might have the DPS to take down a warp prism before it warps in, but what stops the warp prism from flying to a different part of your base where there isn't a turret? The viking on its own definitely cannot take the warp prism down fast enough to stop it from dropping/warping in

The warp prism also can't deploy and warp in a full set of units without risking being popped like a zit. Seriously, when did you ever see a warp prism stop and deploy while a viking was unloading on it?

Well... but it can, though. Viking DPS is 10, and warp prisms have 200 health. Warp-in takes 5 seconds, which means suiciding a warp prism, you have 15 seconds to position it and change into warp-in mode. So with a single Viking unloading on it, you can easily warp in a round of zealots (or even a couple stalkers to kill that viking). And that's assuming the Viking spots you on the way in. If the warp prism makes it to the base undetected, it can warp in, and then fly away before the Viking can even do hull damage.

Dwf is also one of the largest terran whiners out there, so he earns what he gets.

No one said that the Medivac turbo was any better or ok ...

They want all drops to be nascars that zip and zoom all over the map with no way to actually react to them.

afaik barracks can't be put in medivacs

"afaik warp prisms cant heal"

Shall we continue the dumb comparison?


Your argument is invalid. Which is better? 3+ heal to one unit? Or arbitrary instant troop deployment across the map from 30 production facilities?

it's the same as a doomdrop from terran, except the units warped have shit dps and can't retreat.


zealots\DT's have bad dps wtf?

Exaggerating doesn't make your argument any stronger either. 30 production facilities? The fuck?

When I get 30 production facilities, getting a 100/100 upgrade or not won't already matter.


This is more early-mid game buff where protoss can be forced to be very passive with no options to attack or harass. So warp prisms can help put some of the pressure back to the opponent.
