    On the other hand, it feels extremely unsafe to send out the carriers if there's a bunch of ghosts waiting. The carrier is also quite hopeless at taking out swarms of scourges, I always have back them up with corsairs.

    But once I remembered I did not send out my carriers because my enemy has heaps of ghosts, then it turned out that he never researched lockdown..............

    Depending of the situation you can love or hate your own units¡¡¡

    Example,,, I voted Dark Templars ´cause of their sneak-high power attacks,,, and sometimes, if you get to rush with´em it´s so hard to take them down,,, at least at the early game. You can take advantage of protoss, terran and even zerg with them. ( at first, overlords are slow so you can take down some expansion before you get detected). But later in the game you can still use´them as combat units or somekind of radar. That´s why I voted them... When some air unit attacks your DT´s, you get pissed,, but you know, they can´t be perfect.

    Reavers, High Templar, and Dragoons are my top favorites, with reavers and high templar competing for the #1 spot.

    Corsair because it SO beats out the Scout, its one hell of a fast unit, and it kicks ass against the zerg!

    DT because its invisible, it looks badass (old one), and it IS a badass

    Zealot because they're the best basic unit, they are badass (not quite to DT, but close), and because we all secretly hope that we have the ability to form psionic energy into blades on our arms :p

    Zealots because I love the idea of advanced warriors that have freaking blades attached to thier forearms. Bonus points for being brought for by mental prowess. Plus thier name intrigues me.

    Dark Templars for the same reasons.....only invisible!

    And lastly, the carrier. Its death from above. What is there not to love?

    Dark Templars, because the enemy can send a whole army of hydras without ann overlord and soon they get owned by 12 dark templars.

    Carriers for obvious reasons.

    High Templars, because they own against zerg together with dark archons.
    Example: You see a whole group of guardians, hydralisks and devourers coming towards your base. A few dark archons maelstrom the group, then high templar psionic storm. All units are dead.
    Of course they can also hallucinate Archons and mass the opponent's base with both real and hallucinated ones.

    I have exactly the same favourites with TerranTemplar. Zealots for their "All for the Empire!" attitude, DTs for stealthy assasination and capital ships just intimidate.

    Corsair are so underestimated...

    I understand that against terran they are pretty much useless.. but against zerg, they are gold..

    against any zerg player I manage to rush corsair (while making zealots/goons/ht) just to disable their overlords.. all you need is stargate + 1 corsair and you start scouting the map like crazy killing all those overlords.. when the 2nd corsair is ready it gets much easier to hunt them.. i'm usualy ok with 4 corsairs.. if you are against a noob zerg, those 4 corsairs will win the game, against a good player, it will still help you.

    The only thing you gotta watch out is stay away from hydra/spore.. if he starts to make muta, make more corsair and you can easily deal with the muta with ur corsair/goon/ht

    As a fanatic Zerg player I just *HATE* Corsairs... they can be so damn pain in ass.. they harass my overlords so damn easily and mutas are never safe from them...

    You need to use overlords as detectors and protoss players use often Corsairs and DT's as synergy and that combo can quickly get battlefield supremesy if used right.

    What is my favorite protoss unit as protoss player?

    hmm... Archon.

    I gotta go with carriers capital ships are generally just awsome on thier own. Als there is nothing more satisfying then watching 12 carriers unleash a hell swarm of interceptors that make zerglings feel outnumbered.

    DT's because they are invisible psi blade wielding assassins
    Arbiters because they have cloaking fields and recall
    Carriers because they are capital ships

    zeolots, dt and then carriers....
    Zealots are so freaking fast when fully upgraded they are just as destructive as lings lvl up
    dark templars are like the ninjas of SC and ninjas are always cool
    carriers just look so cool and that interceptors absorb lots of damage if people aren't focus firing.
