Depending upon the terrain and unit positioning, Stalkers can effectively kite Zealots without Charge. However, Colossi are very strong against large numbers of Zealots. Zealots are effective meat shields for a Protoss army, particularly against Immortals and Stalkers as they can tank 9 Immortal hits and 17 Stalker hits. They become as fast as Marines using Stimpack, and faster than every Zerg unit off-creep, except speed-upgraded Zerglings and Ultralisks.Ĭompetitive Usage Vs.
