No, it's really not nice. It's very slow and very expensive. It's nearly impossible to sneak one into the enemy base for a mass recall. And since there can only be one, it's a big a fat target. The cloak field is nice, but it can't keep up with your army on the move.Vanguard1219 said:Well, damn. One of my favorite long-term tactics with the Protoss was using a Dark Archon to Mind Control an enemy builder unit from another race, thereby letting me create their tech tree with a unit cap independent of my own.Tenmar said:There are no dark archons in SC2.
Zerg rushes backed by Protoss tech always confused the hell out of other people. It was great.
If you'll excuse me, I need to go into the corner and cry now...
So, the Mothership is essentially a revamped version of the Protoss Arbiter from SC1? Nice.AC10 said:The mothership is a super unit. It cloaks all things aorund it by default, shoots beamy death and has some skills. The most useful, IMO, is a mass teleport skill which can summon all units in a circular range from one location to the mothership.
Yeah, I miss my Arbiters. I don't think I've ever actually used a Mothership in a real game. It's too slow and expensive.Ne1butme said:No, it's really not nice. It's very slow and very expensive.
