I recommend game 1 from group 3 to watch, as game is good, and commentators give good insights on why players play, the way they do.

Protoss has several over-powered units, and there comes a time when Zerg or Humans simply can't oppose a Protoss army built from an equal number of resources as theirs. Show me a unit more cost-effective than the High Templar. Untill a point, the game is balanced enough, and of course Protoss doesn't win every time. But even on paper, the game is unbalanced in Protoss' favor - why should they have more units to choose from?Kraszu said:Don't draw conclusion about balance after seeing few games. If Protoss would have significant advantage over diferent races we would have PvP finals almost alweys, actually Terran won most tournaments in history, and there were many TvT finals. If P would have significant advantage over other races then there would be very few or no professional zerg/terran players.
Firebats + Medics + Science Vessels > Ultralisk + Cracklings + Dark SwarmJasede said:Ultralisks + Cracklings + Dark Swarm = outlandish.
Bullshit. There is never such a thing that "OMG at some point it's impossible blablabla". ANY amount of ANY troops has an adequate counter. If you can't grasp that - then you really just need to lern to play better, and analyze replays more thoughtfully.Protoss has several over-powered units, and there comes a time when Zerg or Humans simply can't oppose a Protoss army built from an equal number of resources as theirs.

Generally yes, but that doesnt mean there is an imbalance. it's juts that terrans usually play through infantry against zerg.Infantry + SV > Any Zerg strategy
Sure, they are unbeatable. FOR YOU.unbeatable corsairs (against Zerg),
Is this the new excuse?Sure, they are unbeatable. FOR YOU.
I'm responsible for the actions of the other player?that's *your* fault
Enjoy trying to ever expand or attack ever.or making your overlords float above spores or hydra
Yes, you are.I'm not saying the game is perfect.
So interesting and fresh that I see Protoss do the same strategy all the time? Corsairs and Templar then Reavers against Zerg, Dragoons and then mass Carriers against Terran?koreans love inventing new maps very often to make gameplay shows more interesting and fresh, and that breeds a lot of imba.
