    Do you think Arbiter is OP vs Covenant, or more specifically, PoR?

    I have a friend in my room with me, amongst many friends, who is playing HW and hes like "man Arbiter is so OP vs Regret" to which I stated its only in his lack of the ability to deal with the arbiter that makes him "op". Just wondered what the consensus was. I know ive heard both, but im bored, and thought id ask.

    Alright, let's break this sucker down.

    In a 1v1 fight, Arbiter will always win due to his sheer mobility. Cleansing Beam is made for Buildings, Infantry, and poorly micro-ed units. Arbiter can use his power against PoR, and PoR cannot return fire with his. Late game, the Prophet can fly away over a mountain and laugh as the Arbiter drops into oblivion glitch land.

    The PoR can outrush the Arbiter with Elite Honor Guards. They will eventually overwhelm the Arbiter. So, super early and super late game, the Arbiter will get destroyed. It is in the mid-game, when you're Prophet only has Ancestral Perversion, that he get's rocked by rage. And Jackals are the only thing that can stop a raging Arbiter.

    So, PoR can mass Jackals and Hunters and crush the Arbiter's army of anything. He can also rush him early and it's GG Arbiter.

    Arbiter must use his powerful mid-game to his advantage. And use wraiths against the PoR's jackals.

    in a 1v1 only later in the game but if you rush the arbiter, hes screwed.

    in teams theres nothing much a por can do against the arbiter unless a dbomb i provided by a teammate.

    tonnes of jackals just arn't practical. the arbiter has a easy time of just making a few wraiths or something. not much por can do if the arbiter starts to counter.

    Wraiths just get RAPED by the Cleansing Beam. Regret's Condemnation is stupidly powerful against Wraiths. Regret should go Jackal+Hunter and and AirChair PoR. That'll cook an Arbiter really nice.

    @ your magic:Riiiiiiight.

    what are you talking about POr is better than arby in every way in 1v1, it's team games where arby is boss.

    I didnt remove you (I wouldnt do that). I made a new accoutn and didnt bother adding over 86 freinds to it so I just left it up to the people on my list to figure it out.

    my bro is on my old accoutn ebcuase he's a cheap basterd and needs a free accoutn for now so he just recovered mine at his apartment and my other account ran out of gold so my new accoutn is Xxdrowsyx, add me and we can pwns some serious how you say, fine gentlemen.

    but sadly until I bring up my english grade (yea I am bad at english if you couldnt already tell, lol) I cant get online but I should have it up to a C in about a week so

    What does PoR do that makes him unstoppable on most maps? And why does it not work on Barrens?

    the rush at the beggining if you can get past it is still a pain because a POR at your base is hard to stop with arby alone unless you feel like useing 500 bucks or making a hall for him and getting jackels which costs alot and stops alot of upgrades and the only thing good about arby is arby sohim not being upgraded means he is is esay to kill because your leader is useful and if he jsut goes for upgrades then he is doomed becasue he cant take hooks back and is easy to kill, just wear him down or get beam rifle.

    also the whole he cant take hooks that he loses back or take hooks for himself without hall which once again getting upgrades and raging alot plus units isnt easy to do.

    the reason it's different on barens is that POR is so slow that he cant get over to rush or harrass easily and you cant wear the arby down beacuse of healing spire and he can get units and tech pretty easily because of tech hooks

    me and some other people, it's not that he is horriable (well kinda) but it's a harrassing issue, he is easy to harrass and keep down in the dust so that's it's like a 1v2 for your teamate, if you have been getting away with a POR on your team then it's likly your partner carries you dont face good people.
