Zerg vs Terran vs Protoss

Who is the strongest, coolest and the badest race in both Starcraft I and Starcraft II?

Terran wins all. Seriously.

I haven't gotten my copy of 2 yet but in the first one Protoss were always a bitch to fight, damn zealot rush. So I'd have to go with them just from the first game, no idea about the second.

Zerg, The hive mind is my home
Pretty damn fast builders too

Shenanigans, I call Space Marines.

Terrans. They are the manliest men who could ever fight in a war.

See! I knew most of the users would pick Protoss...

Zerg is powerful ya, But kinda nasty and icky just looking from their forms.

Terrans are merely humans dude, And we aren't lucky to have those photon shields. Why? because we are insatiable beings...

I call upon Ruinous Powers of Chaos and their pawns.


In all seriousness tough, Terrans, at least in original StarCraft were the side I had most fun with.

Marines and Battlecrusiers were hilarious.

Strongest?

Protoss. They were the race I stayed in the top 10 of the ladder for a week or two way back in the day.

I could beat the zergling rush with a photon canon.

And then to decimate a base, I would just use a swarm of longshot researched dragoons to dominate them.

Though I enjoyed playing with all of them.

Terrans because they can REPAIR. Probably the most overlooked ability in the game. A group of SCVs with a group of Thors will put the hurt on you. Also if you walled your Nat in with bunkers filled with marines you can easily defend it by repairing them. The Terrans' music owns all the others as well.

Also if you guys haven't seen the TLOwnage video then I suggest you take a look:

Lies. Eldar own everything.

I actually like the Zerg, ´cause they are faster, cheaper, and they are like a plague, actually, they are.

Zerg units heal themselves over a period of time. Protoss has that one building that "refills" the units' barriers. And Terran music is the best, but shouldn't that be in the music section? :P

Wish I could find the video of Flash defending a humongous zergling/hydra rush with only a Sim City comprised of a bunker of marines and a barracks with about 10 SCVs repairing the bunker. I think the map was Match point if I remember correctly... I'll do some diggin'. If you saw that you would be a believer. In SC2, you could also load up a Command Center and float it in your opponents base and have it filled with 5 SCVs which you can unload and repair the building as it upgrades into a Planetary Fortress. TLO did that in the TLOwnage video I linked earlier. The Zerg's regen is really slow and the Protoss' shields do regenerate quickly but not during battle. Also if your Terran all you need to do is EMP their army and no more shields for them. And I've only seen a few Tosses ever use the Shield Battery and even fewer succeed when they do. It just uses up too many resources early game. The only situation you would be in that would warrant its use is if you fast expanded on a big map and only had a couple zealots and dragoons to defend. Most people would rather choose building a forge first and getting out cannons to defend in that case.

edit: Found it! It was Flash vs Jaedong in the MSL Final... epic match. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Adq9muBjRk8

Protoss for sure. I got part of my screen name from one of there buildings.

Protoss. They were the last ones to hold the line against the Dark One in the alternate timeline, so that pretty much says it all.

Ok Zerg is the coolest, but it is the Terrans that are the strongest...and that is why I main them for 2 games now.
