So is Protoss really in that bad of a situation? Some could argue that you’re exaggerating.

Right now, the top 16 spots on ladder is taken by 10 Terran players. Normally, Terran players don’t do so well on ladder but I feel that things have gotten very serious now that there are 10 Terran players up there. When I see things like that, I feel that I’m not the only one who does badly in PvT. Widow mines have become very OP. In fact, I actually think that BW spider mines were better.
That additional damage against shield was really big. Now Protoss can’t play using a templar build order. Once Terrans realized that, they are now so much more daring. And even without all that, Terran is still too strong. It’s like WoL Brood Lord/Infestor/Corruptor level.

he's sadly not trolling
it's nearly impossible to beat terran in macro games now : templar first isn't viable anymore due to the mine buff and colossus first? well usually you die on scv pulls even if you micro like a god
this is why you'll only see immortal busts, blink all ins and proxy shits in televised pvts until widow mines gets nerfed

It isnt a balance concern rather the shitty design of protoss. This state is actually very good. We are heading towards a point where david faggot kim and his buddies small shitty adjustments just wont work anymore and they will be forced to be redesign the race. Even though that i dont see how can wms be good against toss, with chargelots the backfire of wms is always great and in small numbers will kill the terran forces, later on you can just get detection, and you dont even have to go out of your way too much deither since u'll need that robo for the colo switxh anyways. Also i can imagine immortals added into the unit comp. Those motherfuckers are scary against terran and we barely see a few. Yeah ghosts give you a hard time with em but they do anyways and terran doesnt get em too early anyways
sry for typos im browsing from my phone right now
