STARCRAFT II GAME RACES PROTOSS

With their highly advanced technology and potent psionic abilities, the protoss

once considered themselves the most powerful species in the galaxy. Their war

with the zerg has proved otherwise: even the most individually capable warrior

cannot overcome such insurmountable numbers. The lesson has been a hard onefor the protoss, for their society is built around core philosophies that have been

rigidly adhered to for over a thousand years. However, the zerg invasion of the

protoss homeworld of Aiur has brought the race to a crossroads: the protoss

must embrace change if they are to survive and prevail.

HEAVY HITTERS

Pound for pound, the protoss fieldStarCraft IIs strongest and mostdurable units. That power comes at aprice, as their units tend to be costly.

WARP-IN

Warp technology is an integral part of protoss tactics. Via a psionic matrixformed by a network of pylons orphase prisms, protoss forces can be

Now new tactics and technologies are being brought to bear in the increasinglydesperate battle against the zerg, and ancient, terrible weapons the protoss set

aside long ago are being unleashed. The protoss have never been a prolific

people and have traditionally bolstered their numbers with a variety of robotic

war machines. Individual protoss warriors are unsurpassed in their skills, greatly

enhanced by the combination of technology and formidable psionic strength.

Nonetheless, the protoss must rely on mobility and surprise to maximize their

advantages without getting drawn into a battle of attrition. One of their greatest

strengths lies in their fleet, which boasts a variety of ships powerful enough to

pound an enemy to atoms.

deployed nearly anywhere on thebattlefield at a moments notice.

SHIELDS

Protoss units and buildings areequipped with protective energyshields. These shields can only soak upa limited amount of damage beforefailing, but they recharge after a fewseconds.

PSIONICS

The protoss are potent psionics able tobend the forces of the universe to theirwill. Among their most powerfulpsychics are the templars, who canunleash devastating psionic storms,disrupt enemy systems, and even fusetogether to form the nigh-unstoppablearchons.

@JetfirePrime: your just saying that because you dont want dragoons with 20 damage to smash those little marauders.

Zealous


@Ada: Dragoons do not teleport and they suck against units that overwhelms them like Marines and Immortals take their

place due to they got shields that can make them challenge super powerful units that got high damage attacks like Thors.

JetfirePrime


why did they take out dragons?

be stopped by Raven PDDs. PDDs totally protected my outnumbered terran flyers from Zerg range attackers and any non-

@Hakutsuru: I know and its not like the Shakuras temple they got is more devastating than a Terran Nuke is it? Well

Shakuras temple took 15 very hard minutes to defend from the swarm threatening to wipe out the Toss but the Toss and

their photon cannons held very firm until Zeratul said to witness the power of the temple but Terran nukes take 20

seconds to land and they use to do 500 damage to all units(Except BCs from Brood War) and structures but it is faster and

more devastating than any Toss or Zerg weapons even if it can't cleanse the dark Templar world from the Zerg. Anyway if

there is strategies that Players can give that is related to anything you want including how to break through heavily

defended terran defenses as the Toss you guys are free to speak about it.

@JetfirePrime: face the facts dude, All races war with themselves. Raynors raiders, the dominion. Tal darim, and dark

templar. Kerrigans brood, and brood that gets cerebrates taken away. they are ALL weakened by something or other.

Hakutsuru


@Panda: Sadly they are outnumbered due to their civil wars and their differences but like Raynor said don't let their

numbers fool you and they say Carriers kill things more faster than other units.

I love protoss, there just so damn awesome

what could be better than awesome protoss in the high-tec?

I see all these people posting an army combo for Toss and people replying with the counter. Keep in mind people with counter list. that

if you DONT have the counter when the army hits, your bum @%@#d even if you KNOW the right counter. KNOW and HAVE are

completely different.

Protoss are the best race.

SpaceSheep


protoss ROCK

:D

cman


Honestly i think the creators put the most thought into building the protoss they have more versatile units than any race zerg has fewer

than any to produce effective attacks so in order to win you must keep throwing craploads of units till you win out your opponent sounds

brutal and sacrificial just keep attacking and making more and more that's just crazy i mean you cant be versatile to where you got one

specific unit to where it can counter mass thors i mean broodlords are late very late it takes forever and by the time you get them well

your dead example protoss has specific unit to counter mass marines the Collosus and immortal for thor stalkers well rounded unit but

zerg lacks something like that enough to buy you time to get broods at least a few maybe a unit that can do much more than an

infestor
