Toss is pretty strong right now but it wasn't too long ago that a Toss couldn't win a tournament to save their life, so remember that before you whine about balance. I mean how long of a drought was it for Toss before Dear won WCS KR and finals?
Protoss has won 4(MC x2, Seed and Dear) of the 18 Code S seasons, so i think its fair to say its time for a toss to win again.

Its way too hard to keep track of all these new players, seems like they come and go
ive never heard of paralyze before and his liquipedia entry is kinda sparse

In my opinion, this game is all you need to know about paralyze (aka the Afrotoss):
+ Show Spoiler +
This game happened in Round 3 of Code A, so the winner was going on to Code S. Obviously Paralyze is better than this, but it is just too funny to forget.

Meanwhile, Zerg players are rejoicing at the fact that since they have almost as many Zergs in Code S but slightly less, they're dodging the Terran whine storm 
It's unfortunate that there are so few Terrans in this Code S, but I can't help but feel it's karma for all the Toss haters who celebrated Code S having 5 Protosses and claiming that the 1-1-1 wasn't broken.

There were actually people who didnt think 1-1-1 was to strong?

It's like when terrans are behind in a series and 11/11 rax because it's almost a free win -- except back then 1-1-1 basically was a free win
I still remember Heart using it every tvp in an mlg I think it was (Huk in particular comes to mind)... never forgiving that man.

Looks like Paralyze to win Code S this season, according to tradition.

don't take too much action now blizzard, doing nothing and waiting for 6 more months might solve this
|
even though there is only 3 terrans, it will definitely be one hell of a story if Maru wins it all

would be like when Fruitdealer won. Too bad Dear is in this tournament.

Terrans just need to learn how to play.

Just remove Terran and give the spots to Zerg for perfect balance. :D
Gonna be fairly boring for me as I dislike any matchup with Protoss. But in Proleague there have been a few good ones lately so perhaps it will change, but... that remains to be seen. Grats Paralyze anyway!

That logic is so flawed -,-
OMG WE WON LESS TOURNAMENTS NOW WE DESERVE TO WIN!!!!
No. The better player deserves to win, you should NEVER factor in that 'race X won less' and see that as a reason for X to get a win.

May the three musketerrans prevail.

it was not my point that protoss deserve to win because they have won less tournaments. Was just pointing out that protoss has won less even if they are considered imba. I am fully aware and totally agree that the best player deserves to win any given tournament, in hindsight I probably could have dropped the last part of my post.

It's pretty funny - SKT can legit make two proleague teams just with their Code S representatives.
SKT Protoss Code S: PartinG, Rain, Classic, Paralyze
SKT Zerg Code S: Soulkey, soO, Dark (okay 1 short).
Interestingly, of their 5 code A players, their 2 Terrans Bravo and Fantasy were unsuccessful, however their 2 protoss (Classic and Paralyze) and 1 Zerg (Dark) all advanced to Code S. The SKT Terrans are letting the team down >
I wish people would stop commenting on the races though, it's pretty clear the real story here is how dominant SKT have been. I don't think one team has ever had this many players in Code S before - over half of their roster have qualified for the hardest 32 man tournament in the world. Only Journey, Sorry and Sacrsi didn't make it to Code A.
Ridiculous team. It's hard to believe they only made third in PL round 1!

Wait wait wait wait wait.... Are you implying that because they have a historically low amount of GSL wins they shouldn't be considered imbalanced? Perfect logic.

Slayers in GSL November 2011 had 7 in Code S, matching what SKT has this season.
oGs in GSL January 2011 had 8 in Code S
oGs in GSL March 2011 had 8 in Code S
oGs in GSL May 2011 had 8 members
oGs had 7 in GSL July Code S aswell...
oGs had 7 in GSL August aswell... my god...
This was really interesting for me to research... never realize how good oGs was in 2011....
