Quick Protoss Void Ray Rush – Best Void Rays Strategies Guide

Void Rays are considered to be very annoying for Terran players. As you read along, you will find out why.

First thing first, let us know more about void rays. Void rays is considered to be one of the greatest unit for Protoss. It has the ability to move while attacking an opponent or even while it is moving closer to the enemy. You will first need a Stargate and around 250 minerals and 150 gas before you are able to produce a Void Ray. It uses the Prismatic Bean as its weapon which has a damage rate of 5 with an additional of 1 point per Air Weapon Upgrade. It is capable of attacking both on ground and in the air with a range of 6 at a fast speed. Speaking of upgrades, void rays have 4 upgrades available for them. First is the Flux Vanes. It is able to increase the speed of void rays by 1.125 to 3.375. Air weapon is another type of upgrade for void rays that increases their attack damage rate. It requires the Cybernetics Core and Fleat Beacon before it is accessible. You will also need 100 minerals and gas for the first upgrade, 175 for the second and 250 for the third upgrade. Next is line is the Air Armor upgrade wherein it increases the armor defense and would also require both Cybernetics core and Fleet beacon. 150 minerals and gas is needed for the first level upgrade, 225 on the second level and 300 on the third upgrade. Last but not the least, Plasma Shield Upgrade. It increases the defense rate for the shield being used by void rays. This would require the Forge and the Twilight Council. It also needs 200 minerals and gas for the first level upgrade, followed by 300 and 400 for the succeeding level upgrades.

In using Protoss Void Rays, you must know who is your opponent. From there, you will know how to go about your strategy. You can start with building Probes then as soon as you are down with the last 2 probes, start building your Pylon near your main base and build one zealot tower right beside it. While your zealot tower is still in progress, keep producing your probes. Then create an extractor. You should be able to have a total of 15 probes once your zealot tower finishes. Build your second pylon right beside your first one and then build your cybernetic core. Just a good to know, cybernetic core enables you to create your void rays. Once you have created your cybernetic core, research Air Weapon then build 2 more pylons and then stargate. While building these, do not forget to keep producing your probes until you will be able to gather enough resources to build your void rays. When you have attained this, build your first 5 or 6 Void rays and then expand your base. Send out 1 of your probe with 3 of your void rays to the new mining location. This must be the closes one to your main base. Then send out half of your probes to the new location and start mining. You should have at least 10 void rays and enough gas and minerals. Just keep building your void rays both on your main and second base. The main goal here is to be able to expand a few more to be able to keep building more void rays. Once you have gathered at least around 10 void rays, then start ambushing your opponent’s base. Keep building more rays and send them by batch until you earn your victory.
