P>T? That's definitely not what Katowice has taught us.

As i said before the matchup is pretty swingy imo which is why i think there isn't really a correct statement on it. One tournament protoss mops the floor with the terrans the other it gets mopped, both happend over the recent times.

Oh yes, yes you are.

The #TerranMasterRace types since the dawn of time both want to flex about how 1337 they are for playing the ‘hardest race’ while complaining their race is hard.
Given that innate contradiction at the core of their being, of course they’re going to spout nonsense for a decade+
For the sake of mods and my Terran playing brethren, I am very much talking about a certain type of Terran player. As many of us are PC gamers, a minority of us are #PCMasterRace obnoxious twats.

I'd say Z > P, P = T, Z > T. I think Katowice accurate reflects this
Zest 2-0 bunny Zest 0-2 Heromarine Trap 2-1 heromarine Trap 1-2 Bunny Zoun 0-2 Clem Zoun 2-1 Maru Zoun 1-3 Heromarine
Seems even to me.

You forget the last GSL Super Tournament where P > T and the champion was a Protoss. In fact, the two best Terran players in the last GSL Super Tournament, Maru and Cure, were taken out by a Protoss player.
This is why you can't cherry pick a single tournament. You need to look at more Premier tournaments to determine the performance. And if you look at the Premier tournaments over the last year, Protoss has outperformed Terran (read the first post in this thread for the stats that show Protoss has outperformed Terran).

GSL Super Tournament before Katowice:
Zest 3-2 over Bunny Zest 3-1 over Maru Maru 3-2 over Hero Zoun 3-0 over Cure
Doesn't seem very even to me in the last GSL Super Tournament.
Regardless, as I mentioned, you should be looking at a larger data set over the last year for Premier tournaments. And Protoss has outperformed Terran in Premier tournaments in the last year, this is the first post in this thread.

Some of these people you can have real, meaningful, interesting conversations with. But there's a subset of posters on this forum who will never be satisfied unless Maru wins absolutely everything ever.
This about sums it up:

Its been 12 years guys. Its boring and pointless. SC2 race circlejerk never ands for Z/T/P. It’s always been like this since WOL with the terran fanboys When P wins. A move Imba When Z wins. Imba op When T terrans. godlike, other races need to l2p. I do admit the terran tears after every big tournament is highly entertaining though. Mental gymnastics
But not all terrans obviously, just a few here. No offense to them, they have strong opinions and that's alright. It's just I don't think they are actually open to debate.

I'm not, I'm just pointing out that Katowice isn't evidence of P or T domination against each other. Also lol, I can just as easily mention Gsl Season 3 where Cure took out Trap and Zest, the undoubtedly best two protoss players.
I think looking at premium tourney wins is sort of a silly metric -- nearly ALL of them are Trap/Zest for Toss and Cure/Maru for Terran, and if you match those guys against each other you get pretty much 50/50.
If you look at the total number of maps, I don't think you get a statistically meaningful measure either way.
This argument of course goes both ways, and people whining that P << T, Z are also wrong for similar reasons. I think the only thing that the statistics will back up is that Z is the strongest race, nothing else.

That's right. I have sworn and will not repent. I will never be satisfied until the Emperor Maru (long may he reign) wins literally everything, as is his right. Vivat Maru.

Zerg’s BiG 4 has always been the best players in the world by a margin for a while now
But carry on with the usual terran whining after every tournament
When terran wins its because “Mary and Clem GOdLike”
When terran lose its “oP Toss and Zerg”
Don’t terran fan boys get tired? Cause the rest of us sure do
The irony is, the longest running thread is Protoss whining, when the stats show that Terran performed the worst in Premier tournaments in the last year.
Protoss has performed better than Terran in Premier tournaments over the last year, and yet they have somehow convinced much of the community that Protoss is struggling the most, when it's actually Terran that is struggling the most in Premier tournaments in the last year.

Well, looks like Wardii's Balance Patch tournament has ended with two Protoss reaching the finals: WardiTV PTR Balance Cup
It gives a little insight into Terran's performance in this balance patch but not much, because only 3 Terrans participated, with Spirit and Kelazhur knocking each other out. But MaxPax did 3-0 Kelazhur so it seems that Protoss can still beat Terran with the right strategies and build orders, with this balance patch. Of course, more competitive matches will be needed for this balance patch before we can better determine how Terran will perform.

It's pretty telling that EU terrans like Heromarine and Clem slowly stop competing in smaller tournaments just like Serral and Reynor riding their wave of success. Meanwhile poor Maxpax and Neeb absolutely need every chance to earn some money because protoss are fucked in real big tournaments.

Doesn't Maru play mostly macro games in last 1-2 years at least?

The balance patch was released yesterday. So we have some early PvsT results from this balance patch from the AlphaX Alpha Pro Series: Alpha Pro Series: Ultimate Showdown/11
It's just 4 games, but Hero beat Gumiho and Dream easily. Hero beat Gumiho 2-0 and Hero beat Dream 2-0. Just as many pros said, including Harstem saying this, but the balance patch probably won't change PvsT too much at the highest level. So the overall balance changes will be good for PvsT, because at least it will put a dent in the rampant voidray + shield battery abusers on ladder.

This tournament had like 80% Protoss from the start andhas no only Solar as current S class players in it. Huge grain of salt there 
EDIT: Just realized Solar was top 8 at IEM so he is actually pretty good in shape right now

Well, Dream got last place today in his group in the GSL. Another Terran out of the GSL.
