Protoss is just the EASIEST race to play. It may not be the strongest.

It's hard to say which race is the strongest right now. Terrans dominate the GSL (keep in mind that the foreign terrans are significantly worse than the foreign zergs and tosses), but it could be possible that those players are just that good. Remember in BW that the most famous players are mostly terran; in fact, 4 of the 5 bonjwas are terran. But this didn't mean terran was OP; it just meant that those players were that good.

Terran bio army = kite vs chargelots or you die..

so Terran need 2run away from the units protoss use the most. Funny isnt it

Protoss had some really good buffs lately so I really think that he is kinda of becoming much more stronger than before.

Stephano said that the PvZ matchup is very Z favored. So I will have to go for Zerg as I think Terran and Protoss are pretty even.

Well said. Toss players constantly cite GSL results as if it's the undeniable identifier of balance lol. The bottom line is the best players currently use Terran, has nothing to do with race balance. On even player skill, Protoss is the strongest race. Easily.

Mid-high masters Z here. I haven't played any games in which I felt I lost because of the other race being too strong.

The new maps and balance changes seem like they have worked pretty well. I'm going to say Z is the strongest because:
1) Infestor broodlord.
2) No pros are good at exploiting all aspects of Z, except maybe DRG. Nobody can find a "best" style, and the styles are changing rapidly.

Terran because they win a lot of GSLs, in general, and the best unit in the game is their first unit...

Protoss strongest atm because late game army of protoss is the strongest early midgame not so much imo but late game can be really tough especially for terran i think

Protoss lategame is the weakest....

but I have to say terran is the strongest atm.. maybe because of their style.... protoss has weak early-midgame army and they need to all in a lot to win (GSL) hard to macro vs other races... you need early 3rd or all in... gateway units weak + eco weaker than other races...

My problem with Protoss (I'm a Zerg player, so this may not be accurate, so be merciful ^^) is the reliance on forcefields against Zerg.

The Starcraft Masters map kind of highlights this in one of the challenges where it's a small gateway army vs. a tonne of Zerglings, which is only winnable by intelligently placed forcefields. I think about this in regards to a 200/200 Protoss Deathball, vs. a 200/200 Zerg army. In a normal engagement, I think the Protoss Deathball would win in a great majority of cases (of course I'm not taking composition into account here at all), but would have a huge amount of loses. Whereas, great forcefield placement would allow the Protoss player to pretty much decimate the Zerg army with minimal loses.

I find it odd that HUGE victories for Protoss seem to rely so much on a single, early game unit, and requires a great deal of skill in order to use effectively.

Just my two cents. Feel free to argue, like I said, I'm a Zerg player, so my knowledge of Protoss is lacking.

How do you know for sure that terran players are better then protoss or zerg players? Explain me plz, because i dont know how you can compare players who play different races with eachother.

How do you know its the players and not the race?

(Im not trying to say terran is the strongest race)
