QUOTE(westley0214 @ May 24 2011, 04:34 PM) Is it just me or does the Archon buff really made a HUGE difference in PvT nowadays? it is comparing how pathetic archons are in the past thanks to concussive shells with 2 range With the range increase and immune to concussive, Archons did a massive amount of damage to Medivac and MM. Never thought that it will be that significant. HT seemed a really worthy investment again. |

QUOTE(quest_5692 @ May 24 2011, 07:22 PM) well, i think its still ok, archon should be around the level of tier 3. just that archon cant be as strong as collo or carrier because according to blizzard, its just a recycle usage of HT and DTs...glad to see more archon overall. archons are still not as good as colossus for sure as colossus have the range advantage...its a good transition from colossus tech for sure... something need to be done to carriers to get it more play... i dun mean balance but rather builds etc... too underused even in late game... |

QUOTE(LostWanderer @ May 31 2011, 06:51 AM) yea, i know...but lol, feels like unless if your opponent is expanding, you should not expand then?XD basically unless u have colossus, u cant expand...oh, and thanks...=) with colossus, i get a higher chance to def the nexus with micro... if ur opponent expand too fast, jz tech to colo and kill him =p basically in PvP both of u have the same units, he spend 400 on nexus and somemore on probes where u can use those resource to pump ur army bigger and kill him |

QUOTE(LostWanderer @ May 31 2011, 07:29 PM) so usually pvp will be a 1 base play i guess?XD hmmm it would depends actually...best counters to blink stalkers should be 3 gate robo? 3gate blink is relatively stable vs most builds... if u go 3gate robo and ur opponent go blink, u are save to expand and tech to colossus after that... if u wanna 1 base him on 3 gate robo, a good protoss will know to abuse that by going to ur base and blinking around forcing u to base trade which is a risk due to the mobility of stalkers... i would suggest gate core gate gate robo (immortal chrono -> 2obs with 1 to his base) then expand and get like 1 more immortal till u can afford robo support to colossus... from there drop a 2nd robo (double robo) and get 5-7 colossus with lance and go kill him with probe to pylon along the way... ^ that is the basic, situation depends based on games, maps, skill lvl etc |

Basically why u need obs in ur base: -
- if he go blink, he is 1 building away from DT so u need obs not to die to DT (some use DT for vision and blink up ur ramp denying ur forcefields - if u have obs, u can know when is he coming to atk u, it is very important information - if u have obs, u can deny information from his obs - if u have obs, u can deny his obs from blinking into ur base etc as tat will give him vision for ur lvl i think tat is the best as u can defend 4 gate using 3 gate but tat is soooo micro intensive. |

QUOTE(quest_5692 @ Jun 29 2011, 07:50 AM) steal gas? zerg are more afraid of pylon block compare to gas steal -.- yeah, the zealot hit 2nd gas thing is rather helpful but zergs will check out for nexus too cuz some players still does 1 gas FE. wif far less sentries tho. I think one has fe is dead right? Even the one gate fe grab the 2nd has early |

QUOTE(axn992 @ Jul 3 2011, 09:08 PM) 1 base DT?usually even if it fails rite, it is not the end... use ur DT for map control and deny the zerg's 3rd while u expand... from there get blink... depending on ur micro, u can snipe the overseers and let ur DT go all out... and if he go mutas? well archons from there... i like some DT with my army as they kill lings so so fast when u isolate them wit FFs btw: DT move faster than overseers |

QUOTE(quest_5692 @ Jul 3 2011, 10:18 PM) i hate when zergs go DT tech because it basically forced at least 3 spore, 2 overseer and i instantly lose map control. a good protoss player might be able to make a comeback with decent skill. mass roach kinda beat the archon zeal though..but my friend just suggested me to contain the protoss wif overseer roach at his nat (assuming no proxy pylon) Added on July 3, 2011, 10:19 pmactually the map control DT has is incredible, since u can warp in at low ground containing a protoss is a stupid idea -.- and archon zealot is a new unit compo quite famous recently. but ya containing is dumb LOL... usually when there is DT jz make a roach timing with 3 seers (spread out the seers) |

QUOTE(pepsi89 @ Jul 8 2011, 11:18 AM) i think ladder is the only way i can practice, since there is not much ppl in my clan, 2 robo colo...HEY GUYS, HOW TO BEAT CHARGE LOTS ARCHONS MIX IN PVP? i saw some ppl do this and i follow, really unbeatable if both players 1 base-ing, i think the only way is stalkers + colossi but this require 2 bases becuz these units are gas heavy, i can even think of carriers, but need 2 bases also.. u need to get colo to a decent count to melt away those chargelots quick enuff... usually chargelot/ archons would be quite 2 base as well... |

QUOTE(pepsi89 @ Jul 8 2011, 10:57 PM) no, 1 base can support charge lots and archons, but in a small amount, but that small amount is enough to kill u, i have lost to this a few time becuz i met this guy he 1 base all the way in pvp ladder he is right, a good 4 gate would kill it...he always go dt 1st, during the time the darkshrine in warping in, he reseach charge with chrono u can say a well executed 4 gate can kill him before he warps in dt, NO! he times his forge and canons so well that by the 4 gate hits, he has 2 canons just finished warping in at the front door, but he has only 2 zealot and 1 sentry by that time well, i think blink stalker can counter this opening by blinking up and avoiding the canons, but this has to be executed very well also, by sending a zealot or blink stalker up the ram and spot the high ground then blink all my remaining stalkers up there is a good idea, just make sure the high ground scouter dont die so quickly, blink stalker is a better scouter consider when he has faster movement speed and when he is up the ram he can blink to an edge of his base and spot the high ground so that my stalkers can blink there as well, hopefully can find his dark shrine(if any) and snipe it real quickly imho, open wit the 3 stalker build... tat would punish him enough and prepare urself for DT... |

QUOTE(pepsi89 @ Jul 8 2011, 11:33 PM) i tried before, he would just warp in a round of stalkes when he sees my void rays, and wrose, if my opponent got good scouting skill, when he scouted my stargate i gg alrdy basically i tried the build he used and i got punished by the initial 3 stalkers >.<will try this often though i won some wit FFs and DT |
