I think right now it is protoss and zerg because of:

- All terrans nerfs
- Map pool is better for both races. Remember we had maps like steppes, kulas, delta, LT, very easy win for terran.
- Immortal buff : makes protoss less weak at start, easier to take fast expansion.
- Ultra buff : makes possible for zerg to switch late game between BL or ultra, making them very powerful.

Do you guys noticed, that the only question here is: What is more imba? Protoss or Terran? Did someone make the question why Zerg is disadvantaged by Blizzard since the Beta?

When Progamers complain about a matchup, it gets noticed.

Toss complained that the 1-1-1 was OP for Terran... Immortal buff... now Toss has no weakness against Terran. They can double nexus early without any consequence.

X race won X tournament therefore X race op amirite? also wtf kind of poll is this TL? people have opinions about balance in their own experiance and balance or imbalance doesnt exist because no one plays perfectly... and most people who complain about balance arent really that good because its kind of a phase when laddering for most people anyways... some people just never get it

I think Zerg is the strongest, Stephano and DRG seems unstoppable.

Id say the majority of people in this poll just voted for the race they have most trouble against or based their vote on one set of statistics (eg. No. of Terrans in Code S) rather than looking at all the info (pro opinions, results, own experience etc.)
Id say the game is a lot more balenced than a lot of people make out, but protoss late game is a little too strong atm, and it makes protoss the strongest race.

I don't think this poll is any good..

Edit:
I just think this feeds people to complain more about the race they have problems with.
Next to that the results of this poll don't mean anything, propably it's just a reflection of 'the other races' than the races people play who voted on this poll.

Interesting poll next to this one would be:

did you vote on your own race?

yes

no

I think we all know the answer to this poll

this poll is beyond stupidity,not only do you have a bunch of bonze-diamonds who are gona vote for which ever race they cant beat AND people are never gona vote for there own race....all this basicly show is that protoss is the strongest at lower levels/has the lowest % on TL,i mean when zerg just won gsl,the only foreigner who can compete with koreans is zerg,and that foreigner himself said protoss needs a buff...........................

Exactly, this poll is not beyond stupidity, it's proving a valid point - Zerg is easy to play at low levels, but it's not too strong to beat. Protoss is impossibly hard to beat in the late game at lower levels, and that's why most people voted on them. Terran still has the marine, but other than that they are harder to control at the lower levels, and so a lot of Terran players find it difficult to beat Protoss.

Just because this is a Starcraft balance thread on TL doesn't mean that it's a balance thread about the highest levels. Go start your own, "which race is hardest to play against in the GSL?" Or since you think you're at a higher level than "bronze-diamond", why don't you start one for "Masters only"?

Lol. Sure, the race with the most spellcasters and with units that are good but expensive can just A-move. U so smart.

While protoss is the strongest in my opinion, Zerg has the most options, and with the most options, I feel like Zerg then has the most ability to be the strongest.

i voted for zerg, even tho its pretty balanced overall. just think broodlord/infestor is way too stupid in late game for toss and terran to deal with.
