And patch only been live for a short bit once builds get refined the abuse will begin and the sad part is there isnt enough protoss to cry about balance like terrans or zergs do R.I.P how can you play protoss and look at your self in the mirror  ? Thats why you dont see protoss on ladder anymore ppl woke up from a dream and started playing real racesBonus m*me: They can buff anything else than collo | ||

Adepts suck without their ability. They get kited to death versus MMM, could never approach tanks, and just die to anything zerg at all. Their ability allows them to close the range, to surround units (preventing escape), and to always engage in a favorable position. Without a favorable position, adepts are too slow and too low damage to do anything remotely good. In fact, you can try it out. Take 5 minutes to remove shade from the command card for adepts in an extension mod and play versus a friend. See how relevant they are to ... anything ... then. Personally, I'd love an adept without an ability, but I doubt we'll ever see it. | ||

Zealots with charge upgrade can annihilate hydralisks super well. | ||

Zealots with charge upgrade can annihilate hydralisks super well. - Protoss didn't need yet another dedicated harassment unit. - Zealots get wrecked if there's anything to stand in front of the hydras like ... banelings, lings, roaches, lurkers, broodlings, spines, spores, ... or paper airplanes Nonetheless, Protoss still has too many abilities to manage. (or rather, too many high-maintenance abilities) | ||

Blizzard: Hey everyone! We accidentally jumped the gun here and posted this early. While we are always exploring ways to make the game better, these specific changes are still being thought out and may be tried out at a later date. Apologies for any confusion. | ||
