 Protoss Vs Terran - Pretty even, terran has to have good army comp to deal with what the toss has (opposite to popular belief),  Max supply i'd say Toss has advantage
 
 
 have u seen some of the new gsl maps?

 | I think it really just depends in zvp - I think this is the most fun/interesting matchup in the game for me. I find I usually win pretty badly because most toss players don't know how to play their race beyond either 4 gating or doing some stupid huge econ FE/collosus/VR build - which I counter hard with mutas.
But when I play somebody who knows what they're doing and can flow with me the games are pretty awesome.
 
 zvt is imbalanced to say the least. I'm not even going to go into detail since it's pretty common knowledge among the community/pro gamers. However I feel like I'm improving on this - it's just a hard matchup to learn as zerg and requires you to play at an insanely high level to beat an average terran player.

 2 Zerg players in top 20 NA. There is no argument for them being OP.

 Hard to argue toss are the best given ratio is in top tournies and ladders is 0.5 terran to 0.25 toss to 0.25 Zerg.  Terrans gotta stfu already.

As for Zerg, i dont really think its common knowledge that TvZ is still imba, ive spoken to alot of really good players who all think Z has the edge now on larger maps, and from my playing experience i would have to agree
 
 PS. Noted Picka_matera dodges 1on1s
 
 
 Everyone you talk to is terran.  You cannot cry imba when every statistic indicates terran is the best race.  They are the most stable and consistent race and occupy about 50% of the top teir spots on ladder and leagues.
 
 
 ie...
 Top 20
 World rankings:  10 terran
 Korean rankings: 10 terran
 European rankings: 11 terran
 NA rankings: 9 terran
 
 Average:  50% terran
 
 
 
 You have no argument for imbalance when the numbers show Terran have a strong advantage across the board.
