i realise most ppl jump to learn protoss first rather than other class despite had better experience.. just because their voice r damm yeng? and models are great?
imo zerg look disgusting, lack of eye-candy wow factor :/ first time i touch protoss campaign also my hair stood up.. very yeng!!

VR

Surely, it is because of Selendis.

well look the way they build stuff.. deploy and lari to the next 1...
quick start ..

zerg have to sacrifice 1 worker... kesian...

yeah...LOTS of toss...
even for my 5 placement matches...3 are toss 1 terran 1 zerg

and 1 probe can warp in multi buildings at a time is very convenient

Cute Probe

Maybe cause Protoss unit looks cooler and has an extra advantage at end game? My fav is still Terran tho.

Protoss are like space elves, and everyone wants to be an elf. Look at Legolas and Arwen! So cool.

Not to mention they sparkle. Like Edward Cullen!

Coz Protoss got a few permanent invisible unit.. that y... versus protoss , u really need a scanner........

Hahaha... when multiplayer or vs computer, just create the invisble unit to protect ur base...... kakakakaka...

well, you would truly admire it when u can call out a fleet of carrier to wonder around the map .

woh really?

*grabs tissue box and loads selendis mission*

LOL nice one.

IMO, why there are a lot of protoss is cuz
- much easier to macro, you can warp units and continue attack
- they are generally much tougher, with (fast) regenerating shields, its something like the orcs in warcraft 3
- require less multitasking, unlike zerg which needs to get queen spawn larva, select larva make unit, micro zergling run around, balance between drone and army count.
- they look cooler

Just my two cents..

i would disagree on macro...
u cant queue up units with warpgates during battles and rally em over unlike the other 2 races...
not to mention the chrono boosting short time unlike muledrops that requires more apm...
besides that, they cost much more supplies which require good supply management especially the spikes when u warp in units...

i would agree that zerg would be the hardest due to the queen spawn larvae + creep spreading...

lol every class should have pros n cons.. i dont think the sole factor ppl choose protoss over other is because probe can warp buildings and move away like many ppl here saying xP.. but for myself i really fell in love with their voice.. its something not common we hear, correct? and their melee warriors wtih glittering colorful blades r cool too.
human voice is too boring ald..

to me i chose toss is due to my gamestyle mainly...
i do play all 3 races but i am most comfortable with toss as a whole...

besides, me <3 carriers

Toss has all the things boys love. Aircraft carriers, motherships, lasers, assassins, teleporters....
Zerg has ? Eggs, roaches, flying crabs, earth worms, hot alien girl ( eh ? )

But still , Zerg is my preferred race. =PP

haha same same...although they doesn't look so nice but dunno y i like to use them instead
toss would be my 2nd race though....

i left out flying t-rex aka muta

Thanks for ruining the Protoss for me.

Up yours

i don't think so, last night i fought terran players almost every match, till i'm bored of them lol

well, maybe protoss is popular because perhaps it is easier to learn to use?

I'm a new player and I find Protoss to be easier to use. Considering that their 'static' strategies work in many conditions. Besides, micro-management is not as much as Zerg.

sooo got 1up'd

Honestly, i think its all a matter of Aesthetics... not about micro/macro/stretegy etc... >_> This game is still new anyway...

Ever since I loaded up the first Protoss mission in SC1 I've been in love with them
Fenix is so badass

I feel in love with protoss after watching the epic cinematic encounter between Zeratul and Kerrigan ( starcraft 2 ) !!! SOOO.BADASS !!! <3 <3

i spawn broodling on fenix D: D: D:

Because probe's sounds is cute! Remember wall-e?

Hot Sex QoB

toss got nuthin like em

the only thing i like protoss becoz they have plasma shield....so their defend is better than terran & zerg.....2 marine can't even beat 1 zealott.....my fav protoss unit is dark templar...

Well in terms of managing your base and collecting resource minerals per minute unlike all the races well the other two races toss only have to focus on getting their building down at the right time because all they need to do is put a frame of their pylon down and it will warp it self hence which gives the protoss user free to do other thing compared to a terran user and zerg who have to focus on building that particular building which does leave them at a slight disadvantage (in terms of mineral ) .

Protoss units are extremely powerful when used carefully and less reliance on micro ( broodwar) and not only that 1 gateway only cost around 150 minerals from that you only need to add on other buildings to get different unit pretty simple and easy while other races unit the emphasis on you want it you got it which means extra gases and heavy minerals do slow up the ability to produce units faster compared to protoss for example making units from fact . On the other hand sc2 well macro has been screwed up big time ( made it easier) Mbs anyone ? hence making protoss the much preferred race for newbies like me ^^. Although I love terran very much but using that race is pretty hard core well single player is okay but multiplayer it's definitely a no no .

protoss unit is powerful , u dont need to control too much(micromanagement) when a smaller force gives u the same power as a zerg bigger force .

for example . when situation comes (narrow terrain ) ur zerg unit will fall .

but for me . i prefer zerg . cos i mass rush units . but protoss cant .

zerg more fun coz they bully u like 5v1 LOL

Protoss 1 unit can take on 5 units I prefer toss ^^

im in between coz im a terran user

Most league/custome Ai game i played most player seems to be using Terran, so i believe newbie like to use Terran.
Anyway i like random.

based on statistic posted, 40% of the players are terran (highest) and half of the top 10 for US and EU combined are terran

many of my games are protoss, random, terran...(in order from the most till the least)

so far oni met 2 zerg and believe it or not...those 2 are RANDOM 1...

Most scary/presure when playing 2v2 versus zerg, hardly defend early.

zerg = rush when team game
so block choke or rush back...haha

put it this way. easier all rounder units.

1. gateway + cybernetics core = stalkers, pwnz everything......... pretty much. if you've seen how the pros play, zealots + stalkers (or last time, dragoons) were enough for lasting you through the game.

2. stargate you can bring in those rays, damn powerful also.

3. 1 probe can go around build stuff and go back to harvesting.

4. upgrading the production building doesn't require a pause. for example you can continue spamming zealots while waiting for cybernetics core to build.

Sometimes the choke is too big to block, and even if i block also they will change target to my teammate, so high chance going to end game

i dont like zerg bcz it lags my laptop.

I do think zerg is slightly weak. Their mutalisk get countered quite easily by marines and they get beaten quite easily with cheaper marine and protoss units.

hehe. see how your zealots and stalkers handle zerglings and roaches coming at you.

i dont know man, blink stalkers make zerglings/roaches a fair joke. of course, depends on numbers too. and as learned from TLO, armor/shield upgrades

cause have a nice look who know, but i like Zerg when in multilpayer game
