Alphabetically is the gramatically correct way in English (:

Lore-wise it would be Protoss Zerg Terran by order of creation / appearance.

Protoss (get it out the way quick, and have the others to clear your mouth) Terran (stuck in the middle of two warring aliens) Zerg (leave the best for last)
Very unbiased analysis.
Also think it just sounds better saying it out loud this way.

Protoss - Zerg - The other one

I think TerranZergProtoss is the most correct but TerranProtossZerg rolls off the tongue better

Terran Protoss Zerg or Protoss Terran Zerg. Zerg has to be last. The match ups in my head are always TvZ, PvZ and... I think it's TvP but PvT sounds just as good. ZvP or ZvT sounds wrong.
|
Obviously TZP. However I can accept PTZ as a 2nd order from the bw campaign. The other options make no sense.

I (Zerg) played a ZvT. I (Terran) played a TvZ. I thought this was how the order of the letters in the MUs normally went? O.o

The original campaign order was T -> Z -> P, so I've always put it in this order.

To determine the correct order of naming the three races of Starcraft.

zerg clearly comes last.
T P Z sounds very right, but P T Z doesn't sound wrong either.

The box art is phenomenal in any order.

Obviously in the order the original 1998 campaign is supposed to be played which was Terran -> Zerg -> Protoss

This is the most invested I've been in the answers to a TL thread in a while not gonna lie.

I meant an abstract match where it doesn't matter who the Zerg or Terran is. If I'm watching Serral vs Maru, it's a TvZ in my head even though I mostly play Zerg recently. Of course that doesn't mean I'd say something like "Serral's TvZ is good". It can be "his ZvT", but if someone asked me to name the match up between Serral and Maru, I'd say it's a TvZ.

What's the worst-sounding order? Protoss - Zerg - Terran kind of makes me wince.
