Protoss Offensive Strategies
  by Crynos

Starting technique
What I like to do, is get 8 probes, then build a pylon and my forge behind my mins. I then establish excellent defense, because it takes long for these suckers to build. I then get a LOT of probes on mins and geysers, approx. 30+.
Tip: Only start Vespene Gasing after defense is done.



 
The first techinique I have selected to show you for
protoss is the most effective and most commonly used, is the carrier/arbiter attack. This technique makes it very easy to kill computers and human players alike. After having done the "starting technique", I will build barracks/cyber. core/stargate/citadel. I usually get 2 cores so I can upgrade air weapons and air shields at the same time. I will then get templar archives/arbiter tribunal/fleet beacon. I will then build 4 stargates. I will start the army. If I have enough vespene I will try to get arbiters fast. Cuz they take long to build. I suggest getting at least 2 quick carriers and some dark templars for siege tanks. Then, when you see you have a bit of extra cash, get a robotics facility and a observatory. You will need like 12 carriers and 4 arbiters 3 obs. for wraiths, etc. Then attack the side of the enemies base try to get on top of his command center/hatchery/nexus A.S.A.P. Then advance army slowly. If you make it to scv/probes/drones, chances are he's dead. 
Good Luck. 



 
 
The second strategy I will explain to you is the arbiter/archon attack. This is another effective offensive, not as common because of its high cost in vespene. Again, after having completed the "Starting Technique", build another Forge and 2 or 4 barracks depending on how much vespene you have access to. 1:1. Then upgrade ground weapon/shields. Slowly start to build cyber. core/stargate/arbiter. Do not forget to get observers. Then once you have about 16 archons and 4 observers attack. Take out turrets/bunkers/colonies ASAP. Then shread him to shit. This takes a bit more gaming ability to preform. But it is still easy to kill cpu`s using this technique.



 
 
 
The third and last technique I will explain to you, is the hardest to do. But it works excellent against terran or protoss. Again, after having completed the "Starting Technique", build another Forge and 3 or 4 barracks depending on how much vespene you have access to. 1.5 barrack to 1 geyser. Then upgrade ground weapon/shields. Then build a robotics facility and advanced robotics. Build your self 4 reavers and like 15 dark templars. Then, with the reavers take out the turrets/cannons, and any other detector. Then send in the dark templars. And watch them reak havok! Have fun with this one. Even more with undefended terran. Take out there comsat. And kill everything fast.
