Setting aside the player, protoss is the strongest of all the races. It is physically superior whether on land or at air. what do you think?

i think protoss is the best race. although it is expensive and requires a lot of psi, its power compensates for it. the starting unit, zealot does 16 and has 180 hp, whereas the marine has 40 hp and does 6

why everyone choose protoss?to me zerg is the stronges compare to the others.protoss is good but only in the early game.but in the late game zerg got the advantages.zerg produces the units faster than protoss and terran.zerg can produce 3 at once.if i got 4 hatchery then i can get 1 pack of hidra at once.even in the battle.net those who play nr20, they should know

Protoss is usually for new people. 200 marines vs 100 zelots. Marines win no doubt you know why? Because they have long range they shoot from behind each other so marines own 400 zerglings and 100 zelots combined. ( im pretty sure) I tested 400 lings vs 200 rines lings lost they were fully upgraded. With zelots the zelots will almost win if they are fully upgraded. But you know whats even better than rines lings and zelots. Mass 200 hydralisks or lurkers. Hydralisks will kill almost anything. seige tanks will kill alot but still die in the end. Same goes with dragoons and carriers. For all you noobs out there, you should get better so one of you could actually b a chalenge to me.

I'd have to go with terrans, they're extremely adaptable against every race (Irradiate for zerg drones, EMP against protoss). Sad really, I really like protoss the most, they seem like they'd be the strongest. I wonder how balanced they'll all be in Starcraft 2.

I would say zerg is the best in making a big army fast. Protoss is for strong but expencive and terran is for fast but weak in building units. Zerg air sucks vs protos air. Terran air beats protos air. zerg air beats terran air. (For me anyways) For ground units terran has no good ground units. best ones i woulod say is tank and goliaths. Most eficient unit for zerg is hydralisk. For protoss is mixture of both zelots and dragoons.but other wise i like zerg. I will tell you what race i use for what. Normal Maps: 1.Zerg = Rushing 2.Terran = Air Dropping 3. Protoss = Tanks Fastest Maps: 1.Protoss = Rushing 2.Terran = Massing Air 3.Zerg = Massing Ground If you disagree i dont care because i will own you in starcraft no questions asked. And not being racist but i am Korean

Oops before i made a mistake Protos for a normal map would be sneaking with dark templar or reaver drop

i think for the beginners ,using protoss first is a great help for them,for the race,all the soldiers have a high life value and it's easy to operate relatively etc ,and i am a protoss player .the strongest race is definity the terran ,according to the WCG COMPETITION which is hold in korea,which stands for the hightest starcraft skill ,the first best 10 players rate is : 5 terran ,4 zerg and 1 protoss ,sometimes there is no protoss ,and the no.1 is always terran,sometimes is zerg .but i love protoss best .and at least it's the game with the hightest balance than others.i love this game!

Terran is a strong race but you know what. You need to react fast and know how to use them. For they are hard to use. I personally dont like them there marines are to weak. even after they are upgrated. My faveourite race would be zerg. How do you guys play? make a hatchery first or spawning pool first? I make a spawning pool for rushing. Rushing is the key tool for winning in starcraft. I noticed one thing. If your gona rush do it fast and put everything into it cause if you dont kill him after your rush it is likely you will lose. trust me i know from alot of experience. especially from a 3v3 or something. Good luck to you noobs and have fun. Face me 1v1 pm me at my home page

I've been playhing Starcraft for many years. Until now I really can't tell what race is the strongest. Each race have their own advantages and disadvantages. Maybe because I always choose random and not icking a race. All races in Starcraft work for me whatever the enemy race is.

Well, protoss is the strongest, but other races have advantages over protoss though

it will depend a lot on your strategy, on hoy you manage your units and that, one thing that makes the protoss very strong is their shields, but yet then all depends on your strategy and that, cause when blizzard design starcraft, they created a great balance between the three type of units Protoss strongest point -- their shields Zerg strongrest point -- their ability to heal or regain hit points Human strongest point -- they're humans, i can't recall thir strongest point, sorry

In my opinion they are all balanced. Each race has a weak point that the other can exploit.

well all races will have their strong and weak points. i prefer zergs for their healing ability. and their defilers. omg i lost ten or so carriers to them. so i would say theyre strongest
