Why does Protoss AA rely so hard on air units? There’s like, two or three Protoss ground units whose attacks can target air, depending on whether you recognize the sentry’s tickle beams as a legitimate attack. It’d be nice to have some way to deal with air units outside of the usual fare of either going stargate or making a lot of stalkers.
Cannons are your friend. But yeah toss lack in aa.

I meant more in the offensive domain than defensive. I suppose cannon rushes are a thing but I refuse to recognize their legitimacy

archons do pretty well
so does storm if you are vs terran or zerg
Stalkers are pretty good against armored air and Archons against groups of small air targets.

Archons, stalkers???
Since when does Protoss AA rely on air units?!
The best AA of protoss is storm and archons and blink stalkers.
Tempests have 15 (!) range vs. air units.
Sentry is also great with shield batteries as it reduces the damage by 2 (great vs. BC, carriers, mutas).
