Let's
face it, in Starcraft
2 Protoss is
probably the coolest
looking and the strongest
race there is! They're highly
technologically advanced and
the've the power
to use psionic powers, so who wouldn't desire
to play them. Be
aware: by the "strongest",
I don't in
fact mean that they are officially
stronger compared
to Zerg and
Terran in a actual
game but according to the SC2
lore given
by Blizzard, they're
the
most powerful specie in the game!
With
this Sc2
Protoss tutorial,
I am going to educates
you on all the characteristics involving
Protoss as
well as some
fundamental techniques.
This
is not
gonna
be an advanced Starcraft 2 guides where
you will
learn tactics, methods,
or build orders because
there are a
good amount of additional
guides for that. In
any case let's
get into many
of the characteristics of Protoss.
Protoss Features:Strong
Units: Protoss contains
the most
powerful units of the 3
races; they
have high attack
power that deals enormous
damages to their opposing
team. Having
said that, all that strength
doesn't
come at
low costs which I'll describe
later.
Expensive and
also Long Production Units: One of the biggest
negative issues
with Protoss is that their units
are extremely
expensive and
also needs
a long time to
create when
compared
to the other two
races.
Force Fields: Another characteristic
that
is special
for
the Protoss race is their power
to use psionic power. And one of its unique
positive
aspects is that it enables
every Protoss unit and
also buildings
to
possess a magical
force field which
absorbs additional damage.
Warp-In:
Protoss also have yet
another special ability that
permits them to warp-in selective
units into
the battleground
via psionic matrix, which
can be produced
by either a circle
of Pylons or a phase prism by
the use of Warp Prism.
The
Fundamentals of Protoss Tactics:The
easiest method to strategize
any Protoss tactics
is to specialize
or in another word to
become as narrow as
you can in terms of the different
enhancements
and units that
are needed
to win the game. The
main reason being is
really because just
like I described
earlier, Protoss has very
high costly units and structures. So
if you were to go too
diverse in terms of unit makeup
you'll
use
up all your money or resources before you attain
a
big army.
The
second thing to
be aware of is when it comes to making
use of any build orders or strategies for the Protoss is
to keep
in mind that you
must have a good balance involving
spending both of your gas and minerals. Therefore
as
an example if you are planning
for a heavy
gas build such
as Colossus and Phoenix build, then you should
change
it up with charged Zealots.
