It baffles me just how powerful the protoss race is.
It is what it is.

Protoss may seem like the strongest race, but looking at tournament results terran and zergs are still the better players.

look at the breakdown of Code S next season,
1. Terran
2. Toss
3 Zerg.


Seems like a fair reflection of the current balance argument.

How I perceive this question is which race is the most overpowered, or strong in comparison to skill and Protoss should be at the top, too strong for the skill level needed and most overpowered.

I would agree with this, but only at the pro level. For me (as a protoss) zerg are still very strong in NA diamond. Though I will admit that in korea there is a large bump from protoss win rates.

Protoss is unbelievably strong at the moment, and they've only just started learning how to use their full arsenal effectively.

I'm a terran player, and I voted terran cause I feel like it is way to easy to win games even in master league and the only reasons I love is cause I fucked up, not because terran is a "weaker" race than any of the others. In fact, my weakest matchup is tvt because I have to play against another terran and they are always really strong.

Look at win rates in korea. Protoss>all. Quarter finals this GSL, 1/2 protoss. Protoss seems to be the strongest but that doesn't mean they are OP. Gogo zerg!

Nice to actually have a thread where we can talk about balance

I've always felt Protoss is the most imba. When it is played perfectly it seems no race can efficiently counter it. Watching some of the games in code A, S where the P player plays flawlessly just makes me scratch my noggin wondering how it could possibly be beaten, especially with the rather early double chrono boosted upgrades that have been so popular as of late. I think when played almost perfectly Terran is not close behind them however.

Terran has to micro a lot more, and more perfecty when engaging Protoss or your whole army gets stormed a couple of times and you get absolutely destroyed. And even if you engage and micro well, Protoss just warps in a ton of units. Protoss is just dumb right now.

Terran have to do to much to be effective, Protoss have little unit control to worry about...

protoss is SUPER weak in the early game. other than that they are the strongest, but honestly you can't really make a statement of which race is the strongest or not. it is almost perfectly balanced at this point.
