maybe a little bit but when you think about it and reason through it, dropping 8 marines with a medivac that can escape with every marine with it is a lot less risky than warping in 800 minerals worth of zealots

not to mention half the cost worth of marines with stim can tear through a worker line a lot faster than 8 zealots zig zagging around a bunch of buildings and shit

terran players don't have super sick multitasking skills or something, terran is just better adapted for drops


a few chargelots clean up a mineral line pretty quickly aswell, colossus or storm drops have potential as well, if you get speed for warp prism nothing is going to catch it and well if you are not sitting on 2 base having zero economy you can trade a few hundred minerals and be totally okay with it, if you get worker kills wich you will sure get, it is pretty good, you can destroy tech aswell, if you get nulled that's a sad story, but shit happens with terran aswell, losing a full medivac withoud having any damage done is fucking huge too.

The point is that there is a lot more potential in protoss than what we can see being used, they just fail to utilize it, or even to realize, warp prism has a huge potential for example, and then again, we see it in like one out of a thousand games, and guess what? it rapes every fucking thing there.


Maybe cause protoss needs tier 3 aoe units (templar + upgrade or colossus + upgrade) to counter terran tier 1, 50 mineral units...
Yet terrans manage to cry about protoss not using ''oracle mobility''? What? That shit is paper armor. And dropships are used plenty.

Colossus drops are too much of a commitment. Lose the colossus while doing minimal damage -> easy chance for your opponent to kill you because colossus build time is so long.
Losing a full medivac sucks. Losing a colossus in a warp prism should end the game if it's mid game.

well sure theres potential there but like i was saying its just riskier and more expensive

if you have 10 gases then sure go drop some templar and storm away but you wont see protoss players drop from 2 bases like terran because those templar are dead as fuck

Point is, protoss army so strong, there's no need to do anything else besides eat chips and all in off 2-3 base.

Stop this TIER QQ bullshit already, you can get out it pretty early, it's the resource spent that counts and it's not more than terran You get a robo for 200/100, terran gets a starport and a reactor for 150/100+50/50 gets a medivac for 100/100 loads 8 marines in for 400/0, protoss makes a warp prism for 200/0 and 4 zealots for 400/0. Wow, pretty effin huge differences. Your tech routes are kinda familiar with it anyways.

It can be done properly for sure, someone just has to be clever and figure out, but hey we're talking about protoss.

I want some fuck random toss to win it, just before they buff their shitty race because of the underperforming autistic idiots.


Sorry kid, autism is what you have and no protoss in the world or all of the protosses of the world combined will ever match your level of autism.
And come up with something original like overmistified again
