160General Strategy
- Light psionic unit that can cast powerful spells.
- Can use Feedback to drain enemy units of their energy and damage them simultaneously.
- Great against large groups of units that have small health pools once they gain the ability to cast Psionic Storm.
- Two High Templars can combine to form an Archon, a psionic warrior that can attack air and ground targets.
- Excellent as overall army support.
- Can be used to annihilate the opponent’s economy if you manage to drop High Templars behind his mineral line and cast Psionic Storms.
- Can be warped into the Battlefield by means of a Warp Gate.
Upgrades
- Psionic Storm: Allows the High Templar to summon a storm of psionic energy, causing heavy damage to every unit in the area of effect.
Countermeasures
VS Terran
- Use a Ghost to fire an EMP round and drain their energy, then finish them off with Sniper rounds.
- Ravens with seeker missiles are great against High Templars.
- Launch Banshees, research Cloaking Field, and target Templars from afar.
VS Zerg
- Spawn Roaches and research Tunneling Claws and Glial Reconstitution. This will allow them to move underground to a High Templar and take it out.
- Use the Infestor’s Neural Parasite ability to cast Psionic Storm.
- Spawn Mutalisks, and keep them moving. Their speed should allow them to get out of every Psionic Storm without suffering much damage.
VS Protoss
- Use Immortals, Colossi or other units with large health pools. Stalkers with blink are also useful.
- Attack with units that do not use energy, and do not clump them together. Always be on the lookout for High Templars.
- Use Dark Templars to go around the enemy’s defenses and eliminate the High Templars.

....makes sence.
and ht(high templar) kick mass ling butt
psi storm + ling mass = pwned lings
also: 2 ht = ARCHON!
Sadly, their "physical combat skills" would of been useful to defend themselves. Buy why need common sense if you have PYHCKIC POWAHS!
