WARP PRISMFor thousands of years the
Protoss have studied the nature
of time and space, gaining
insight into the universes
greatest mysteries. Using
psionic manufacturing
processes, they created a
robotic mind whose
programming is built into the
molecules of an advanced crystal lattice. The resulting
device is able to manipulate matter and energy with
incredible precision. Warp Prisms are used primarily to
transport forces on the battlefield, but they can also be
deployed into Phasing Mode so as to power nearby
structures if necessary. When Warp Prisms are in this
mode, they can temporarily replace destroyed Pylons or
enable rapid expansion.

Attributes: Armored - Mechanical -
Psionic
Armored transport craft that can ferry units across the battlefield.

which provides power to Protoss structures. The energy field also allows
for the warping in of units and construction of structures.
Can pick up and drop off units in both Transport and Phasing Mode.
Raid enemy bases efficiently by unloading troops in, switching to
Phasing Mode and warping in reinforcements via your Warp Gates.
GRAVITIC DRIVE: Passive bonus to the Warp Prisms movement speed.
VS Terran
Build Missile Turrets around your mineral line to discourage drops.
Build a few Vikings to intercept Warp Prisms.
Use Marines, preferably with Stimpacks, to bring them down quickly.
VS Zerg
Build Spore Colonies around your mineral line to discourage drops. Be sure
to attack the enemy ships with your Queen as well.
Spawn Mutalisks; their flight speed will ensure the enemy will have a hard
time getting away.
Use Hydralisks and research the Grooved Spines upgrade.

You know, that's a very fancy discription of all the intricate little things building up this highly-advanced peice of machinery avaliable only
to the highly-advanced protassians.
And it only costs 200 mins ^^

Dosent it seem like a warp prism would be able to hold alot more units since it just converts them into energy.

Actually I think that this is one of the most effective units in the game! If you can get 2 of these into phasing mode near an enemies
main base minerals u can get some stalkers and shoot the gatherers down while a noob opponent's army is gathering at the middle of the
map!

Have you seen how fast an upgraded Warp Prism is? As fast as a Mutalisk. Very fast.

You can warp in cannons with these as well in the back of an opponent's base.
Dabura
2/2/11 5:59 AM
I think that maps like lost temple or any map with a ledge can be abused with warp prisms almost as much as medivacs, warp in units
then leave or on maps with 4 spawning locations mess with your opponents mind as you warp in units or just transport them, I use them
when using a 2 gate robo build

Cloaking ability?
Espearican
1/22/11 8:25 PM
@Protocol: That would be a good army. If you have the time to build that army, though, then your opponent obviously isn't
doing his job right. Vikings would negate Void Rays, Carriers and Colossi, bio ball gets rid of Stalkers/Sentries/Immortals.
Galerunner
12/14/10 3:43 AM
good army...: 8 voids 4 carriers 7 immortals, 2 colossi, 10 stalkers, 4 sentries...
with this I always have the top score in the game

@Hakutsuru: Least used when it should be used more often, too many deathballs for people to consider it's potential.
SwiftDeath
1/31/11 1:17 AM
@bubble: Sentries are actually REALLY important...Guardian Shield for reduced enemy range damage and Force Field for
blocking off your ramp, or stopping ground units from reaching Stalkers and Colossi.

@Starviper: protoss would be too good if they lowered the cost or reduced supply from 2 to 1 for zealots.

12/11/10 7:11 AM
@Starviper: they take up 2 supply DERRR
creamwolf
12/9/10 11:56 PM
@Zeratul: Eh, not the strongest but the most tanky. Marines are excelent and well rounded, good for many situations, and
always a good idea to mix a few in the army. Zerglings are so dirt cheep it's incredibly easy to mass them. When you can
get a good amount and with good positioning and timing, zerglings can shred through many ground armies. Zelots are the
most tanky. Now, even though they have a good amount of health, they can be easily kited. The pathing on charge is weird,
you'll often see zelots running circles around the opponents army. In all, zelots need some sort of pathing fix to charge,
they are to easly kited otherwise.
CLockwerk
12/5/10 6:10 PM
@Starviper: zealots are the strongest tier 1 unit-also they take up 2 supply
plus: can kill 4 zerglings, up to 3 marines
StopMoving
12/3/10 7:53 PM
Protoss Rant #6: Warp Prism: While I still stand by what I said two posts ago, I have another thing to add; why do zealots take up 2
cargo slots? Granted, They're tall, but in order to adapt to the atmosphere of SCII, Zealots should only take up one space in a transport.
Starviper
12/11/10 6:42 AM
These BADLY need a + 10 or 20 shield buff. They're so much weaker than shuttles. I'm scared to put anything in them do to their sheer
fragility.
Doncroft
12/13/10 6:41 AM
That may be do to the fact that you can now gate infantry to any psi power zone now, such as those produced by these. Just have four
or more gates in warp mode and selected at once to see the advantage of that.
A good use for these as a shuttle would be for a probe and some immortals for armor support. Unload all, then have the probe warp in a
pylon out of the way (so you have a back up back door) while you warp in Dark Templar and,or other infantry under the prism
Dekronos
