When exactly do you get this stalker? I cant find it anywhere T_T
Also why 4 stalkers in the main? I find 6 the better number since you 2 shot a medivac and with speed boost 2 shots is generally all youll get
I get the stalker at 23 supply, after MSC and WG. Generally i make 1-2 stalkers, 3 sentries and 2 zealots before making colossus. But in certain situations where the Terran moves out at odd timings, you might need more stalkers to kite the marines when they're on the way to your base, it varies.
I generally find 4 stalkers a good number because you can always warp in reinforcements. Most Terrans will turn around if they see units there waiting. They won't know if you have more stalkers behind your 4, so most of them wouldn't commit to boost in and drop above your army. Also, if the medivacs do unload half the units in the medivac, good micro with 4 stalkers should deal with it. If it doesn't, warp in reinforcements or throw down a photon cannon. I like to keep the bulk of my stalkers with my main army to focus down medivacs during their frontal push. Lowering the medivac count would hurt him alot as he has to start viking production upon seeing colossus on the map.
