PROBEOriginally designed by the Khalai

caste to lay the foundation for Protoss

settlements, Probes are robotic

drones that service the Nexus and

gather the numerous resources

needed to power Protoss

technologies. Probes also

manufacture and plant the micro-

beacons that anchor the teleport

matrices of structures. These beacons allow the Protoss to

warp in prefabricated structures from their homeworld. Often

Probes are used as rudimentary spies, sent ahead to survey

the potential locations of enemy encampments.

Light unit used to construct buildings and gather resources. They can

only attack ground targets.

Highly vulnerable to enemy attacks and will likely be high -priority

targets, so protecting them is essential.

If you have no other options, groups of them can be used to repel an

early rush.

Probes summon in buildings instead of constructing them, so a single

probe can summon as many structures as you have the resources for.

Use the Nexus’s Chrono Boost ability to increase production early in the

game or whenever you require more Probes.

what IS the probe cannon rush anyways? I dont think probes have a built-in photon cannon, unless they're the starcraft equivalent of 

eevee....in which case they turn into colossi

@DemonMonkey: Yeah Blizzard has to think about lore AND balance. Not just make the units cool and stick with it.

DemonMonkey

I'd think protoss technology would allow probes to move and mine minerals faster

1/26/11 5:41 AM

their lazers are nasty all right but what i hate is how people send them to your ramp and build a bunch of photon cannons there. it

sucks.

@Hydranova: It's where a toss player sends a probe to the front of your base and builds cannons and pylons over the ramp

to stop expansion. I died 3 times from what it caused
