I don't even want to imagine what it's like being a pro protoss player.

It seems to me that there is virtually no margin for error as protoss at this level of play.



It's always been the toughest race to play, regardless of what the balance whiners say

Every flavor of the month protoss who goes deep into tournaments with a variety of cheeses and then vanish into thin air disagree.


Damn I wish I saw those tournaments, where are they? :D

HotS was full of nameless protoss players winninhg tournaments. In LotV they just make all the finals


I'd argue that Protoss has suffered disproportionately in LotV due to their lack of a Maru/Serral superstar. Hard to say that's a Protoss problem though, more of a player thing.

Stats is close, but the race is too reliant on gambles and guesswork, even when playing macro. Hard to have a superstar like that.


So we're right, but it's our fault, gotcha

Can't have your cake and eat it too, gambles can't always pay off.

In some sense there aren't any tier 1 protoss players. That tier is Maru and the 3 or 4 zergs.

(assuming tier 1 means people who have a shot at winning championships)
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

In a sense his post is similar to a balance whine. It's just stating that in a perfectly balanced game protoss wouldn't win ever because the players are just worse.
