There are good situational units that are designed to do very specific things, like phoenix. Phoenix is successfully used for it's purpose when the game goes a particular way, which is fine. Voidray is fine, DT is fine. But having NOBODY EVER use 3 units out of 15? 20% of potential right down the drain.

What concerns me is terran though. All they need to win is a marauder-medivac ball with optional ghosts and vikings. Never see BC, ravens. Occasional nuke to harass 6-th expansion 40 minutes into the game is not a good metagame for a game of starcraft magnitude.

You are absoulutly right! How can protoss attempt to win if they only use 75% of their arsenal? (( Im a protoss player =) ))

Also tom, I think you should take some mroe time ( your analysis is good ) and delve into facts a little more. With the gate tech being pushed back, protoss are finding that AGRESSIVE openings are no longer possible against CERTAIN builds from other races!

I think a lot of protoss players ( including myself and I think I saw it mentioned before) Need to figure out some new builds and tactics instead of holding onto " the old ways ". Mothership/carrier/warp prism all need to be used a lot more in conjunction with other stratagys. And I agree maps most certainly count in this factor, but maybe its up to the protoss player to realise he needs to be DEFENSIVE early game? A.K.A build a few sentries and relax =)

In anycase im not saying anyones right or wrong but i think there are a few more things to consider before people start crying UNBALANCED =)
