I have to say...I agree with Artosis and IdrA. The Colossus is imbalanced. But, not vs the other races. The Colossus is imbalanced within the lineup of Protoss units.
It does so much damage, so every other Protoss unit has to do so little comparatively because otherwise they would be too good paired with it. In turn, because it deals so much damage, it has to be fragile, which means you do need the other units around, but they are essentially glorified extra HP for it.
As long as the Colossus is so good, other units can never shine. Because every composition without Colossus will be flat out weaker than one with them.
But the solution can't be as simple as buffing gateway units and nerfing Colossi, because of the 4 warp gate. If Gateway units become any more powerful, the 4gate will LITERALLY rule everything.
If I could make three changes to the Protoss race, and I'm generalizing these here because I know changes of this magnitude are never simple to implement, but I would make 3.
1) Make warp gate take longer to get.
2) Nerf Colossi in some way
3) Buff gateway units in some way (perhaps Charge and Blink could have additional effects above and beyond what they already do?)

I saw some suggestions on team liquid for giving zealots an extra effect after they Charge, like a chance to avoid incoming ranged damage or a Cleave.
I love the Cleave idea. I fucking love it. That would make Zealots so good once they get Charge and then you could freely nerf Colossi and Templar a bit without making Terran bio or Zerg mass hydra nigh unbeatable.

How do you know? the translations don't carry voice mannerisms, attitude, etc. and not every interview is translated. We see a lot more of HuK as a normal person than we do of Choya.

that was sort of the best game yet
and thats a pretty sad thing
At least you can select more than 12 units at the same time, so progress I guess.
HUGE VICTORY
PLEASE STAB ME
It's OK Lemming. It will all be over soon.

Hasn't gone down at all for me....
Are you guys on the free or paid stream? I'm pretty sure Seguer buys the ticket but my fiancee can't get the free SQ stream to work.
I'm using paid SQ Live.
Stream still down for me, and yes, Premium HQ. GOMStreamer is timing out as well trying to get the VLC link, so it must be something on their end.
I use the free stream.
8-)
Edit: HQ's back up and they're on break? Who the fuck won?
try paid SQ Live
now we get to see leenock lose two bo3s.
How did that third game go down?
Aussie PAers we should totally represent!
Why should I like Huk more than Choya? RACIST
