Indeed. Colossus was the prototype from the days of yore. Reaver is the modern artillery.

Colossus come with built in lasers, reavers have to build their own bullets before they can even fire them, how is that efficient?

So modern the protoss didn't even think about putting some wheels on it so it would go faster than 0.5 km/h

Again, it's not a fault but a feature, admit defeat, you cannot win as I have the staff backing me up on with this one.

You will if it's pointless or stupid. But if you bump something like this, then you will live in the annals of TL history forever.

Oh I know, I meant "do moderators get a notification when a thread is necro'ed".

You don't get to kill 15+ stacked workers with one shot in SC2 and it has happened in Korean BW Pro League.
We can say that the Reavers fault is it's speed and the need to use it with shuttles which combined with the high mechanical demand makes Reavers stationary, in a theory though Reavers easily have much more potential than lolossi.

We don't get a warning, but usually such a necro is reported within minutes

See my edit also, the splitting doesn't matter when we are talking about abusing the fact that worker owner isn't looking at the harrased mineral line.

Jesus it's simple - do you see Colossi harassing worker lines and I mean getting to a mineral line specifically to harass and not the mineral line being simply on the way to the entrance of the base? Not really, right?

I think it's meant to be one of those no skill no micro units the expansion to the critically acclaimed Starcraft 1 gave us. Kind of like DT's.
