The Best Protoss Gamers in SC2 Now!!

oGsMC

Protoss President oGsMC feel from the top of the food chain and found himself a bottomless pit dropping from a league after another into Code B. MC who was once the best Protoss gamer in the world is no longer near his invisible form he once was. Popularize and revolutionize the gameplay of Protoss, MC has led the Aiur's pack into what was deemed a broken race in the early release of Starcraft 2. MC created builds such as 6 Gate all in against Terrans, Stargate Void Ray and Phoenix mix against Zergs, 3 Gate Stargate in PvTs and fascinate the fans with the best Force Field usage the world has ever seen. MC's understanding in the
game itself is second to none and having one of the best micro in the world. MC's previous GSL run has spot him with as high as 70% win ratio for all the matchups and an impressive 80%+ win rates for PvP.

However, MC was once a God and the most fearsome SC2 player of all time is no longer who he once was. Finding himself in Code B seems to be the bottom of his carrier. MC just loses and loses. Will MC's slump ever end? Who knows. MC will definitely be determined to regain his throne once again and had been spotting training harder then ever.

NsHoSeoSage and TSLJYP are the Best Protoss Currently

If i am given a vote on who is the best Protoss player currently, I will definitely go for both Sage (left) and JYP (right). Both of these players have shown new styles of playing Protoss in the current metagame which seems to be favouring both the Terran and Zerg races. What was once seem invisible Protoss Deathball no longer works. The other races has found ways to break the Protoss race. In general, Protoss has been designed to be a very linear race. What this means is that Protoss do not have the luxury of building a Gazillion units at once like Zerg, insane Droning ability, calling down the Imbalance MULE from heaven when you only have 5 SCVs and multi prong attacks.

However, Sage has shown everyone that all these are untrue. First popularize the Zealot, Phoenix and High Templar build in PvZ which closely resembles the Bisu build in the old Brood War days, now Sage and JYP have implement more heavily towards the haressment style of Protoss. The main reason why is this possible, is due to the increase buff of Warp Prism. What was once a paper plane is so much more durable now. Colossus was once deemed the core unit of the Protoss Deathball has seen less and less play. Players are favouring towards Gateway heavy units. The main reason is due to their cheaper cost and faster reinforcement. With Warp Prism plays, units can be Warped anywhere on the map for multi prong attacks.

Another main reason why both Sage and JYP are the best Protoss currently is due to their game sense. Have you ever watch how Sage scouts? You will be amazed. Sage scouts everything. You can never hide anything from Sage as he has eyes every where on the map. The most important aspect in SC2 is knowing what your opponent is doing. This is core of every Real Time Strategy Games RTS. Sage is more of a macro style with haress style while JYP is an expert in timing plays.

In the end, everyone is having their eyes on both JYP and Sage who are deemed the last hope for Protoss. Their games are being analyzed and their strategies are being copied. In the end, it is time for Protoss to once again regain the title of being fearsome race we once was. Other Protoss worth mentioning are LiquidHero, EGHuk and SlayersPuzzle.

Who says Protoss can't win games in GSL. Go and watch GSTL between TSL and Prime Top 4 GSL on 29/9/2011 on GomTV. A must watch if you want to learn how to break PvZ under the hands of TSLJYP.
