    Combine that with the mobile-pylon abilities of the new Phase Prisms, and Protoss Turtling becomes a completely different play style. Maybe even offensive turtling... Time to think up some crazy strategies for it.

    They noted that the squads will be more capable at independence, and things like this will create some really varied ways in fighting a battle. They also said they're trying to get away with the rock-paper-scissors style of comparing units, (and thankfully no WC3 micromanagement) so strategy really will be a huge factor in every match.

    Dumb. I hated dealing with photon cannons even when they couldn't move.

    I bet they cost 3 times as much, which strains the already tight budget when playing Protoss.

    The video makes it hard to tell, but the phase cannon looks like it fires at a slower rate than the photon cannon.

    Like Ryllharu said, this is going to make a whole new meaning of proxying for protoss. With mobile cannons, the 2 gate proxy zealot rush becomes a lot safer. Then again, they haven't shown much of the Terran advancements and almost nada of the Zerg.
