lol. Also if you think about it it's cute that you're retaking freaking planet with like 30 people tops. If you think about it - US sent nearly 200k troopers to conquer Iraq - Protoss vs Zerg should be a lot more even fight so even assuming that protoss are more of "heavy" trooper, we should see mass recall of like 100k zaelots (which admittedly would be cool to see).

I don't know of good Protoss players who gateway all-in when Zerg already has Hydras though

"they could not shatter our unity."

Wait what? the Protoss spent more time fighting themselves than they did the Zerg.
It's the primary reason they couldn't fight the Zerg they were too busy with civil wars between the player and Aldaris while the Zerg were invading Aiur and Shakuras.

That's exactly what I thought. I guess they eventually united against the common enemy?

Maybe there are 100 Tempests few hundred kms away.

Well I guess that's not the only pylon on the planet. Generation Kill was about few marines invading Iraq but there were others too

I thought it was about their unity in Khala, not about their unity as a race...

If you have 200k troopers you don't send them all at once to battle. This is a typical landing operation: a small force (in this case of zealots and templars) takes hold of landing position, then the first wave (which is warped in at the ending) helps securing it. Only after that you start mass transportation of troops.

One could expect a bigger drop squad but maybe Protoss headquarters wanted to start it as a covert infiltration. Bonus points for using multiple squads.

Do you even wage wars?

Er. I have a question

At the beginning of the cinematic, there are 3 Zealots, 2 High Templar, and a Probe. The High Templar merge to form an Archon, and are then sucked into some portal with the Ultralisk. The Probe builds a Pylon, and a Zealot dies to 3 Banelings. A one-eyed Zealot survives at the end of the fight just before the Pylon completes. Where is the 3rd Zealot?

As retreat is out of the question and he's not to be seen anywhere near the pylon in the end, we can just assume that zealot fell.

I misread that as dragon and thought you were making a reference to Stork/ DinoToss... and then I realized you weren't

Yes it did. Its body got warped out of the armor when the second baneling hit. What you see falling down is just the husk of the armor.

I guess we never see the death of the 3rd zealot or the PROBE!!

I would say it is probably more about unity in smoking pot in the writer's rooms at Blizzard.
