Starcraft Protoss 2 Gateway Opening help? (Early-Mid game and Opening Execution)? I'm using this opening against Zerg, and there are two problems. 1) Building the Pylon uses up too much time to keep the unit count correspondent to building the Gateways. 2) Early-Mid game is usually killed by the fact that I keep getting swarmed by Zerg rushes. Help?

Do you think Protoss will be overpowered in Starcraft 2? or is it still to early to tell? I saw gameplay from about a year ago, and they look like they are going to be overpowered just like in the first starcraft. I play Terran, so I am up for a challenge and I wont really mind. Just want your thoughts.

Will there be a protoss-zerg hybrid in the upcoming Starcraft 2? All the gameplay previews and cinematics i've seen so far show only three races in the upcoming starcraft 2. Isn't it that in brood war, Duran was sent by the Xel'Naga to help create a 4th race, the protoss zerg Hybrid.
Starcraft 2 zerg and protoss campaign? Will the 2 remaining campaigns heart of the swarm and legacy of the void be featured as full games with full prices or as expansions with cheaper prices?
STARCRAFT 2 BETA PLAYERS ONLY: Do you think Protoss is overpowered? From Chrono Boost to Mothership, Protoss is toting some powerful new abilities. Perhaps too powerful. Blizzard happened to make Protoss the new "rush race" and the race with the strongest units. I get stomped so much by zealot rushes and void ray spam. It's weird how 10 void rays beat 30 or so marines.
Starcraft 2 Terran vs Protoss help? How do you keep up with early rushes by protoss players early on in the match, they send a few zealots and just start doing work, I can more-less contain them but then when it comes to air combat they just zerg me with void rays. I can't pump out the same strength. It's especially annoying because of all the shields and this usually ends early. The few times I can almost win is when I turtle and just shed out a shitton of battlecruisers and flood my base with turrets, in which case I can do a pretty good counterattack after they've exhausted, but this can usually last like 2 hours. any strategies you might know?
on starcraft 2 whats a good protoss special weapon or strategy that's good against every thing in sky or land? and an easy defence for early push and any u ther tips for a manly protouse player
Starcraft 2 playing as Protoss or Zerg help.? I find playing as Terran the best race. But the same cant be said for the other two. They seem allot weaker and harder to manage. Anyone else feel the same?
STARCRAFT 2!!!!!!!!!!!!? omg i cant believe starcraft 2 is out at the end of this month!!! i cant wait for it!! when u play SC2 (Starcraft 2) what race are u gonna start with? im gonna probably be protoss
Whats a good Starcraft 2 strategy for Terran and Protoss (not a rush)? Me and my 2s partner are in the silver ladder and are currently in 12th in our division with a record of 7-4. The terran usually builds a barracks with about 7 marines to fend off the rush, while that's going on he goes straight to thors and masses them. We have been experimenting with Thors. For example we went 3-2 on mass thors both as terran, then we'd do mass thors and mass stalkers. That went...okay. But the terran always masses thors. What is the best complement for thors if i am playing as protoss???? -Thors and Stalkers? -Thors and Void Rays? -Thors and Pheonixs? Were open to other suggestions
How many of you are excited about StarCraft 2? If you haven't seen the video demos or even the cinematic trailer than you've already missed a whole lot. StarCraft 2 has been announced and the graphics as well as the new available Protoss units are just, literally awesome.
So many questions about Starcraft 2....plz help? I have a lot of questions....can someone help me with a few? 1. I finished the terran campaign...but there's no protoss or zerg campaign? 2. How come when I play battlenet or vs computer....how come I can't build medics? 3. The map editor....I can't edit the maps that came with the game? I've looked in the Starcraft folder but can't find the maps.
Is there any StarCraft 2 footage that has been released showing Zerg gameplay? I can't find 1 screenshot or 1 clip of Zerg gameplay. All the stuff on Youtube is just 95% Protoss and 5% Terran. You get toplay as Zerg in StarCraft 2, don't you?
I need help versing Protoss in Starcraft...I play as Zerg.? I play as zerg and I've been trying to beat my bro. But what here's the strategies he does.. 1. He'll dark templar rush me... Within about 7-8 mins into the game... 2. he'll build dragoons, templars,and reavers, and 1or 2 dark archons, and sometimes archons. what i've failed at building is zerglings hyralisks, and muties/guardians/devours... Not really sure what counters his strategy. I do upgrade fullly my units Oh and I forgot... Photon cannons, ALOT of 'em
How to become great at Starcraft 2? I just bought Starcraft 2 and I am extremely terrible at the game. I can't even beat the campaign modes on the easy setting. I don't know the units, I don't know the strategy, and I'm almost completely lost. What should I do to become good at the game, should I continue to play in campaign mode? IF I play in campaign mode, will I get to play as the zerg and protoss so I can learn how to use those units too?
Why won't my video play as a video in windows media player? I downloaded the Starcraft 2 protoss gameplay video and when I try to open it, it opens as a audio file and I cannot see anything in WMP.
Starcraft 1, Terran counter to Protoss Zealot + Dragoon force? Hey so I've been playing Starcraft 1 a lot recently (because I'm excited for Starcraft 2). I'm trying to become an expert at the Terran race, but I'm having troubles beating this one particular Protoss strategy. The Protoss player will build like 3-5 Gateways and just produce tons of Zealots and Dragoons. Then it seems that no matter what force I have, they always get slaughtered by the waves of Zealots and Dragoons that they are able to produce so fast! What are some ways to counter this using Terran? It is always within the first 10-15 minutes of the game.
Will there be a new race to play and interact with in Starcraft 2? There is Zerg, Protoss, and Terrans. They could possibly add a machine/robotic based race, The hybrids, and maybe the Xel-Naga.
When is Starcraft 2 coming out, and what will each campaign be like? I'm assuming that the player will be the Terran Dominion for the Terran campaign, and Kerrigan's forces for the Zerg campaign. However, the Protoss will be divided again (the light and dark templar will be fighting again). Which one will the player be? What about the Zel Naga and the Hybrids? Will Kerrigan turn good? I'd love to hear the details.
My Starcraft 2 strategy is just horrible? I keep getting massed by units I don't even come close to having. I have a good ground defense but right when I get ready to attack they always assualt with air. How do people push out air so quickly (Terran OR Protoss). Also, is it good to upgrade at all?
Starcraft 2 help please? Hi everyone me and my friend have been playing starcraft 2 alot lately and im protoss while the other is terran no matter what we do watch replays do the replays etc etc we just cant win and were needing some help please this is for 2v2
In Starcraft 2: Wings Of Liberty's Skirmish mode, will you be able to play as all three races? I know that the campaign is terran but i want to know if u can be able to play as any of the three races? (Zerg, Terran and Protoss)
Zerg, Terran, or Protoss? based on what you play (and if you say Zerg Rushing i will eat your babies) and what you have seen from Starcraft 2. mine? Protoss. yea they are hard to build. but when you get going, it is always the way to be. please no little pokemon kids come in here asking "what is this game?" and " i dont know what you are talking about. just answered for points" **EDIT** well Terran is well balanced but when you attacked. the terran defenses arent very good. unless you have dual seige tanks at each entrance, ghosts ready to use lock down, spider mines, and Goliaths. but if you have all of that... you are to poor to think about offense, btw goliaths best zerg rushing defense... shame it takes to long to get xD what did i say about zerg rushing?
Anybody else excited about Starcraft 2? I've been looking around on the answers, and so far most people are just console noobs or play pokemon all day. Is ANYBODY interested in new PC games?? I know I can't wait until Starcraft 2 comes out! Anybody think it will be better than the first starcraft or worse? There's gonna be no protoss carriers, and other units are changing, so strategies are gonna be a lot different. Opinions???
in Starcraft 2 : Wings Of Liberty, will there be a skirmish mode? In the skirmish mode will you be able to play as any of the three different races (Terran, Protoss and Zerg)? I'm only asking because the only campaign is a Terran campaign and I was wondering if this included the skirmish mode aswell..
Starcraft 2 Tutorials? I am brand new to rts games and starcraft in general. I watched the tutorial in starcraft 2 and it was really helpful but it only had tutorials for Terran and not Protoss or Zerg so I was wondering if there was a way to get them by a option ingame? If not can someone supply me with a video or guide to protoss and zerg? I want to try them out but I don't understand them!
Starcraft 2 Talk About Graphics? Does anyone else think, although still amazing, Starcraft 2's graphics are too "rounded?" Im only a little bit into the campaign but the zerg I think look the worst...Terran & Protoss look pretty awesome with the rounded feature but I dont think some edges would have looked bad for the zerg like in the first Starcraft. Anyone agree??
what do YOU think about starcraft 2? Protoss - Zealot = became more "cooler" with new cool spell, i bet they will be used more in starcraft - immortal, and Stalker = lame name, these 2 units should be banned. if they had stalker(new dragoon) why do they need immortal? nice try, Blizzard - twilight arcon = so lame name............. why change a name? it's same as arcon -colossus = wow amazed, cool unit, but as everyone know, u copied from "War of the world..." -Mothership = I hate this unit..... it destorys all balanced thing soo badly that everyone would chose protoss. Terran -Marine = marine with shield.....? OMG this is worst.. it looks like footmen........form warcraft 3 with gun......... -Reaper = alsome, finally something original, cool dued, cool -ghost = what tha heck? it looks like plumer carrying the pipe -Thor,banshee,viking =these are really cool, I LIKE it
starcraft 2 game ? i just herd that they are making starcraft 2 into 3 different games. one for each race i know that. my question is, can u play other races in each game. i no u can play other races in multi player. but what about campaign mode and custom maps? i dont want to get teh terran one if i can only play terran i like protoss also.
Some good strategies for Starcraft 2? I love Starcraft, but for over ten years all I've played against is the AI. Starcraft 2's AI gives me a fun challenge (I have a hell of a time with very hard AI) but the AI is very predictable. I'd love some great strategies to keep up with my friends (my friend completely raped me with three reapers) and beat the very hard AI in the late game. I usually play Protoss just because their early game units can take a lot of hits and also dish out the pain. Typically, I start by building 2 probes, 1 pylon, 2 more probes, then a gateway.
In starcraft 2 : Why did the Zerg get so shafted when it came to new units ? I mean come on, the zerg basically only got 2 new units. The Brood Lords are almost exactly the same as the guardians, and corrupters are very similar to devourers. Roaches and infestors are the only new units that really came out, and infestors are really close to defilers.... Zerglings, Hydras, Mutas, Ultras, are all almost exactly the same as they were, I mean.... it seems like only two new units were brought into play. Overseer's, Queens, Banelings. Protoss got sentries, stalkers, immortals, colossi, void rays, phoenix, and warp prisms, Stalkers are dragoons with blink. and terran got mauraders, reapers, vikings, banshees, thors, hellions, and ravens, plus the "comsat station" was totally overhauled to the orbital command giving MULE's too. Thors are just an upgraded goliath. Hellions are just Firebats on wheels. I mean... this just seems like zerg got screwed. Zerg are weak in starcraft 2! To me, the fact that Zerg seems like they have the least changed is a good thing.
Starcraft 2 Multiplayer question? I heard there are going to be 3 separate games you have to buy to play the campaign mode. One for Terran, one for Zerg, and one for Protoss. Will you be required to buy all three to play all 3 races in the multiplayer version? I could really care less about the campaign mode. I just want to play multiplayer. Does anyone know?
Terran Stragedy for Starcraft 2? Any counters for Zerg, Protoss and Terran builds and some openers if you have some.
When are the Zerg and Protoss campaigns going to be released? That question sounds so nerdy. I am a huge Starcraft fan, but i'm not sure i want to spend sixty bucks on Starcraft 2, especially with it being only the Terran campaign. So does anyone have an idea of when Blizzard will release the other two campaigns? Have they announced anything at all?
what is the best team for starcraft 2? zerg, terran, or protoss?
Does StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty focuses only on Terrans? Out of curiosity, does the Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty's single player only focuses on Terrans or would it have ther zerg and the protoss missions as well?
Why do I pwn the masses at StarCraft? I mass swarm with Zerg and mass carriers with protoss...Why am I so unstoppable? Will I remain unstoppable when StarCraft 2 comes out? I'm sooo good at that game I make grown men cry with their mouth open.
starcraft 2 vs Command and Conquer Kane's wrath? Who will win Protoss and Terran an Zerg as team a and GDI and Nod and Srin as team b my opinion that st2 wins
How to become great at Starcraft 2? I just bought Starcraft 2 and I am extremely terrible at the game. I can't even beat the campaign modes on the easy setting. I don't know the units, I don't know the strategy, and I'm almost completely lost. What should I do to become good at the game, should I continue to play in campaign mode? IF I play in campaign mode, will I get to play as the zerg and protoss so I can learn how to use those units too?
Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty? is this only the Terran Campaign? is there non campaign game on this? like skirmish?? and when will the ZERG and Protoss Campaign coming out? and i will be able to ure Zerg and Protoss in Skirmish right??????????????????????????????????
What race should I play in StarCraft 2? I pretty much only play 1v1 games on the ladder. Currently I am Diamond league level with my Protoss (the race I'm laddering with now). I experimented with Zerg for about 40-50 games during the second phase of the beta testing. Playing Zerg seemed fun but I am definitely quite a bit weaker with them. Grinding ladder games would easily fix this. However, I really enjoyed playing through the single player campaign and playing as Terran in my multiplayer games seems like it could be fun. Basically, I enjoy all races equally and can't decide on which one I should play. All of them or random are not really options because getting good at one race is hard enough already. Yahoo Answers... what race should I play? :(
Starcraft 2- cant find video!? I remember almost a year ago, there was a presentation by a bald staff of Blizard showing the new terran and protoss units. There was actual video's of the units in small scale battles, and in the end, the green zerg things made the sign GG. Starcraft 2 Live Demo from the Worldwide Invitational (7min) found it on youtube, anyone find a better quality of this please?
What is the best Starcraft 2 Race? in your opinion? This is a speculative question, since SC2 isn't out yet. So many answers are based on videos of gameplay and the official site. I currently play as Protoss (funnest imo), but I'm a noob and better players of course prefer Zerg and Terran. So, which do you think will be the stronger race this time? (tho they try to balance them). I personally hope the Protoss get better, since they're underappreciated in SC1 at least in competitive circles.
Why was the Protoss Mothership edited? I just saw the demo for the upcoming Starcraft 2, and to my amazement i saw this Protoss Mothership with 3 abilities namely the Planet Cracker, Timebomb, and the Back Hole which was supposedly for warping out air units. Then the next day i just found out that the Black Hole ability was removed, and as a result, players can now make more than one mothership as opposed by the earlier demo i saw where a player can only use one mothership at a time. just wonderin' ;-)
Starcraft Help! please help me!? Hi, i have just started playing starcraft and im on the 3rd level of the protoss campaign. but i am totaly stuck. i cant find a way into the zerg base to destroy the ceberates because it seems that there are 2 islands, im on one and zerg is on another. ive tried everything please help. im a noob XD
Any StarCraft fans out there? I love the Zerg and hate the protoss but it seems that there might be sone race imbalances in the game, which I cant figuorout. But I cant Wait for StarCraft 2 BabY!
StarCraft Lore? I am one of many people who are already dead and in the grave from holding our breath waiting on StarCraft 2. Thing is, I'm still holding. If it does come out, it won't come a second too soon. In the mean-time, who follows StarCraft enough to know what the current situation in overall plot development is? I know that at the end of the final Broodwar campaign, Kerrigan and her minions attacked and defeated the UED Fleet as well as all of the Dark Templar and Protoss forces, leaving the remnant Terran and Protoss groups to fend for themselves while Kerrigan and Co. trailed off to some distant and undiscovered galaxy -- with the announcement that she would return some day and wipe them all out in full force. Beyond that, everything else I have read has either been part of some non-canon fan campaign, fan fiction, and questionable novelizations found on bookstore shelves. So.. I am thoroughly confused. How do things finally end up? Anybody know where the SC universe currently is?
starcraft strategy help? sadly i can only face the computer until i get starcraft 2. but in facing the computer i'm still having difficulties. i'm trying to focus on the zerg, and i always win against the protoss and zerg, but get my ass raped by the terran. i tried playing terran vs zerg and it was wicked easy. any clue what my flaw is in this, or is the computer just way too cheap
Is anyone psyched about Starcraft II? I know people are still into WoW, Though I never played any of the franchise. But I played Starcraft and Brood Wars and that was awsome. Blizzard admitted to neglecting the Starcraft series but even so it is still played around the world even today. I have to admit that the series is very compatible with nearly any computer since I first ran it on a 200MHz and now I'm running it on a 3.4GHz with Windows XP without any compatability adjustments. I heard Blizzard is taking their time on Starcraft 2 because they don't want people to be disappointed with it since it's been 10yrs since the last installment. Is anyone psyched about the next installment? any speculation? is there anything you hope they shed the light on? I got left with that cliffhanger at the end when the Protoss found that the Deminion were trying to make Hybrids of the Protoss and Zerg to make a stronger race. Thanks for any answers. Peace!
I need help in Starcraft? I need a big favor. tomorrow, I am versusing basically the best starcraft player in town. It is gonna be a two on two. He is so cocky and i know it kills the fun of the game but i just wanna beat him once. Just once so he would finally shut up. My race is protoss and his race is zerg. He is so good. I mean he embarressed me so badly but taking out all my photon cannons with 6 zerglings and the orange cloud that makes anybody in it invinsible. That was so smart. Anyways, does anyone have a really good strategy from start to finish. I need a detailed strategy (don't be lazy guys). I need to know everything from how to stop his rushes, to how to rush him myself. I also need to know what to do in the long run and what is the best offense and defense strategy. Some of these battles can last about 2 hours so less. There has to be someone out there that is better than him so can that person please helpp me.
In Starcraft BW: What Build Order would you use? Here is the Situation: (you are "Player 1" vs. 2 People {A,B} with Pre-determined Strategies): (MAP = "Big Game Hunters" - Picked because of it's High Popularity) * As Player 1, In the Short-Term, you Must Defend against Person A who is a Zergling Rusher, and then Pretty Much Plays like the Computer does... * As Player 1, In the Long-Run, you Must Defend against Person B, who is a Protoss, and gets his 2nd Base ASAP... Followed by a Dragoon Strategy, a few High Templar, with observers. And, If you give him enough time: Arbiters (to cloak the Goons, possible Recalls, and Stasis) will be in the Mix too.
In Starcraft BW, Hypothetical Balance question using math? 1. Assumeing a Mineral Resource collection rate of 12.8 / 20 minerals per collector per unit time, rounded down to the nearest 8 minerals, approximently. 2. Assumeing that the cost of a Zergling (2 for 50), Zealot (100), and Marine (50) are all fixed. 3. Assumeing that the Zerg Overlord = Terran Depot = a Protoss Pylon. 4. Assumeing Zerg larvae come out at a rate of 1 per 20 time, a Marine is built in 24 time, and a Zealot is built in 40 time. Zerg starts with 3 larvae. 5. Assumeing that each race reasonably builds his or her collectors up at the same rate. (Zerg still sacrifice a drone and need to replace it) What should the Build times and cost of the buildings be?: (Barracks, Gateway, or Zerg Spawning Pool / Hatchery) be if the goal is to A) combat be equal at 500 time into the game. Path = 6 Zealot wide. Standard HP and Attack rates apply. Zergling = 35 HP, 5 attack. Marine = 40 HP, 6 attack. Zealot = 160 HP (Armor 1), 16 attack. Note: Armor reduces their attack
how do i beat my uncle in starcraft? reasons why he wins: 1.i use hotkeys he doesnt but he still progresses faster. 2.he always carrier rapes me... 3.i dont know how to choke... 4.he never NEVER uses ground units for offence(oh by the way he only attacks with carriers hes protoss im terran) 5.i dont know what are the correct things to make at the start of the game... 6.he doesnt choke either... 7.whenever he attacks with carriers he always goes to my undefended spot and when i rush goliaths there he takes them back and forward like a hit and run maneuver. 8.i dont know how to take down a carrier storm...

Starcraft 2 in three different parts? Blizzard announced last week that starcraft 2 would release in 3 different parts which 1 part for each race ( terran, zerg, protoss). Does that mean that the multi-player will only have 1 race?
Starcraft Computer AI Trigger Settings? I've created a map using the orig starcraft campaign editor I use to make lots of maps about 2 years back but i cant remember the trigger settings for the comp AI anymore... Ive set locations and tried setting the AI settings "Run AI Script At Location" but its not working.. Anyone know how to set the trigger settings?
