Since there's no thread yet for a particular race discussion, so I'm just creating one.

Everyone who has Protoss as their favourite race can discuss about the tips and strategies here.

And if you're a Protoss user, please do leave your nick and ID too. happy.gif

Will try to update this thread with tips and strategies too shared by everyone.

Apparently battle.net players had been saying that void ray rushes are for bronze league players. sweat.gif

@Quaz, so far 2 posts would be enough I guess. Will make it concise and precise.

EPIC lol

sometime i do voidray ....but not really rush .....i scouted he sending Terran, attking me with his marine and marauder...

i got 2 sentry in base. so what i did is basically block the path to my base with sentry and slowly harass base using voidray
(work for Desert Oasis for me : ) )

my B.O for this tactic

Not a fan of this tactic. Used it a few times, won some games. It just doesn't feel like I was playing with skills.

Bad rays obviously don't take skill.good ones are a different story.I mean, whitera uses rays to rush too.does that mean he no skill?

well white-ra do rushed after he scouted his opponent (and if the map support it)...
and fazing needs lots of skill >.<
not to mention the sacrifical phoenix/ charge at ur own building then fly to ur opponent base keeping the charge up micro...
those are really really micro intensive (i failed at the last one lol)

Exactly why Whitera keeps losing. His play style is too predictable, always go for voids. But he certainly has skill, no doubt about that.

Dark templars in this game feel kinda useless now since most experienced players will always have a detectors .. so sad... they used to be my fav unit for harrassing and guarding unoccupied mineral fields ..
