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.

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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) | ||
