Protoss Metal

Obtaining
Protoss Metal can usually be obtained from Protoss structures.

Alternatively, Protoss Metal can also be crafted from 9 Alien Ingots, which can be created from smelting Alien Ore.

Usage
Protoss Metal can be broken down for its valuable Alien Ingots. Alien Ingots are almost always required in even the most basic Protoss weaponry.

Protoss Metal also makes for good protection, as it has good blast resistance.
