What is High Templar?

By William Burgess |

What is High Templar?

High templar are protoss warriors that use powerful psionic powers to support other protoss forces.

How do you deal with a high Templar?

The best way to deal with High Templars as Zerg is to have a Roach heavy army. Roaches can take up to 2½ storm, and the burrow ability is great. The Protoss will naturally add Immortals to counter the Roaches. This is why you would add speedlings to your army as well.

What happened to tassadar?

Tassadar was a protoss high templar and executor in charge of the expeditionary force which made first contact with the zerg. Tassadar was extremely reluctant to sacrifice the terrans in order to destroy the zerg. He eventually lost his position as executor for sparing the terrans.

Is artanis a Dark Templar?

Artanis was swarmed by a horde of zerglings and hydralisks as the phase prism overcharged, and almost overwhelmed, but he managed to hold off and was recalled just as the prism detonated.

How do you counter storm as Zerg?

The only way zerg can counter storm is to repeatedly neural parasite an SCV, build a command center, tech to ghosts, then EMP the high templar. Zerg has no true counter to storm. But you won’t help your chances if you let your units sit in the storm and take damage.

Is artanis a zealot?

He’s never appeared as a zealot or any other sort of melee warrior. So why in the world would they make Artanis an SC fighter, when Fenix, one of the coolest characters in the game imo, is clearly the better choice.
