I think every Protoss from casual to pro level watched that GSTL series a few weeks back, in which CreatorPrime tore shreds off his opponents with his fast expand into double forge robo build. This build had been around for a while, but it was the integration with the 1gate FE style and demonstration that this could still hold terran timings in the first 8-11 minutes that was the true innovation by Creator. I noticed an immediate response from the pros, with players such as MC breaking out a similar double forge build in the following weeks. Blizzard has obviously seen this too, and like what it sees. Even more so now than before, the future of PvT appears to be turbo upgrades.
Ghosts? I'm certainly not going to complain!
