Tactical Overview

"Protoss capital ship that overwhelms the battlefield with swarms of semi-autonomous Interceptors."

The Carrier is the pride of the protoss fleet. It does not attack directly, but deploys robotic interceptors that overwhelm the enemy.

Strengths

Builds free Interceptors that replace themselves during combat
High durability — shield + hull pool is massive
Deals significant sustained DPS vs. ground and air

Weaknesses

Very slow and expensive to mass
Interceptors can be individually killed reducing DPS
Useless if caught by fast air units before Interceptors launch

Good Against

Vulnerable Against

Usage Tip

Group Carriers together for maximum Interceptor saturation. Always pair with Stalkers or Void Rays to ward off Viking and Corruptor threats.

Tactical Abilities
