Terran is far from op right now. It seems as if Toss is evolving more and more and are finding countless ways of countering every T v P/ P v Z match-up. Toss is raping it right now and if you can't see that then there's something wrong with you!

I have no idea why people are choosing Protoss when it's statistically inaccurate... Sure TvP slightly (if not more than slightly) favours protoss, but the gap in ZvP favouring zerg is far wider than that in TvP.

Look at win rates in korea. Protoss>all. Quarter finals this GSL, 1/2 protoss. Protoss seems to be the strongest but that doesn't mean they are OP. Gogo zerg!


That argument just doesn't work. One season we had 6/8 Terran players in the quarterfinals.
So... terran was super dominant. Even more so than P today. How much did blizzard nerf them? They only changed the ghost and now protoss is too strong? That doesn't make sence. Watch Stephano or any clearthinking zerg against a protoss. It aint pretty... But yeah...



Woah woah stop right there.. 1st of all are u freaking kidding me? ur saying only thing they nerfed is ghost? LOL Every patch terran gets nerfed i want you to go find a patch that terran didnt get nerfed in. Plx try cuz u wont find 1


To be fair... Since then the noteworthe changes for TvP is:
Longer raxx build time
Longer bunker build time
100% --> 75% salvage
EMP "only" does 100 dmg/energy drain rather than all the energy/shield and -1 radius on EMP
Ghost cost changed from 150/150 --> 200/100, which imo is a buff.

Changes not really changing the TvP metagame:
Faster BC's
Faster seeker missiles
Ghost snipe altered (doesn't change much for TvP since you will most likely be sniping dt/ht and maybe a few zlots, but that's not their main issue)
Blueflame going from +10 --> +5, which really doesn't alter much in TvP either.

So sure, there are some changes. But if you remove everything including ghosts you will have a +5sec raxx, a +10sec bunker and fewer minerals on salvaging. I realize there are actual factors on how a game can swing. But comparing to how protoss got hit with the nerfhammer since then (almost +1minute on warpgate research, removing khaydarin amulet) I cannot see, how those changes are actually worth mentioning as being the ones breaking the TvP metagame

its always been like this protoss needs less apm then the other races to be good, thats the only thing that frustrates me about protoss. as a random player I always feel braindead after playing a few protoss games...

Protoss is by far the best if they don't get freaked out by harassments and are able to use basic protoss micro skills (FF, Storm, Feedback, etc.) But a lot of toss players can't do those things.

This topic is so biased, everyone who cant win against toss, say they are strong but they arent. Ok late game they are strong against Terran, but how to get there??? Terran is so strong in Mid game! And also Zerg have the hardest time against Terran i think.

Easily Terran at the highest level. Probably for NA server Protoss is strongest but it's just because we all suck at the game.

The only thread where you can voice out game imbalance. I personally think the game is very balanced, not perfectly but very, to the point where loss in 99.999% of games have absolutely nothing to do with game balance. The game favors Protoss for the casual people in Silver to Grandmaster, but when you get to the point where decent people are (like GSL), it gets balanced imo.

i'm a Zerg. if we're talking raw potential, you play your ass off, utilize everything, great multitasking and effective APM then zerg is the best. but since we're nowhere near that i vote protoss.

protoss is SUPER weak in the early game. other than that they are the strongest, but honestly you can't really make a statement of which race is the strongest or not. it is almost perfectly balanced at this point.


Thank you ser!

People complaining about HT is just poor-.- By the sound of it people think storms are just to be thrown out... the time and gas spent to get a decent number of HTs with energy is quite large contra the fact that ONE emp at the right moment will render them dead or an inactive morphing archon...

As it is now I'd say it is all fairly ok. Only thing I can think of that I dislike at this poin is terran's mid-game ability to leave 2-3 tanks at home and be totally safe whilst their entire bio-army is stimming about in my main...
althought that is to blame on my own inability to handle drops well, not terran being OP.

the game itself is made so easy to play that all noobs can be masters league level...at this level...toss is pretty op since it requires less micro, much easier to macro, and unit composition is easier to....
but at the pros level.....where more micro and macro can be done to the max...it really is hard to say what is the best race.
Still..toss is a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot easier to play

Hmm... I didn't really think of the poll in terms of balance. I think the game is pretty well balanced overall, and the players determine who wins a given game more often than not.

So I voted zerg because Stephano dominates foreigners and DRG is the best player in the world right now (or at least last time we really got to see.) Both are zerg. I don't think zerg is op by any means, but the top players for zerg can beat pretty much anyone that comes at them.

Can't really say the same for either T or P; they both have to deal with the monsters that are DRG and Stephano ;x.

Bias poll since most players play Zerg and they would obviously say that other races are OP.
