I usually am to lazy to respond to discussions but this one needs me. Protoss, if anything, is the worst race. In the progaming scene in South Korea, the Protoss are having a hard team, and aren't doing as good as the Terran or Zerg on the Kespa ranking board. Also, the Protoss are just too weak to fight Zerg. Many people argue that the Zerg vs. Protoss match-up is unfair because of the brute force and speed of the Zerg. My expertise is five years as a Zerg player, and if there is one thing I know it is that Protoss if anything is the worst race. However, I think they are too equal to really make a judgement. The Protoss though have so many faults that you cannot execute strategies with ease. In Terran vs. Protoss, if you just try to move your forces around and savage the map, they will be blown into chunks of goo by Siege Tanks. And in Zerg vs. Protoss the Zerg can contain the Protoss with Lurkers + Overlords + Scourge so you can snipe the observers. No way will a Protoss get out of that from a good Zerg. And finally, if they do somehow manage to break it minutes later, in comes 10 Ultralisks and 50 Zerglings from 4 bases.
The Protoss are just a lost cause, only favored because at first glance they look good. But in reality you need to train really hard if you ever want to match a good Zerg or Terran.

I totally agree with you here, protoss has a really weak D as well. Don't get me wrong if done right it can be good. But just build a ton of cannons is not going to cut it, which is what most people do.
The best D in my mind is Carriers with some cannons and dragoons. But that takes a while to get at first, leaving them very easily attackable in the first few minutes.
With Starcraft2 coming up soon, they are trying to make Protoss better. Dragoons are gone and so are carriers but there are a TON of new units for protoss that look promising.

I think it's protoss. I always used it amongst the 3. I think the strongest unit of it is zealot & carrier. Combining those 2 would be you're greatest advantage to win the battle. =)

As others have said it just really depends. Starcraft is one of the only RTS game out that have a VERY good balance between races even tho the races have totally different styles of play. No other RTS have races that are so different but yet so balanced then SC.
Protoss is an easy race to play, which it why most people like it. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying everyone who uses protoss are bad players or anything. Just saying that given the way protoss build, it is easy to mass build units or anything for that matter.
I could go into alot of detail between the 3 races but i wont. It really just depends on your play style.
I prefer Terran for there style of defense. A line of supply depots then a line of bunkers, a line of siege tanks then a line of turrets. Thats my D, works well for me.
I also like being able to build bunkers around my enemy's base, some call it a cheap strat, not me :P
If you are not watching around the outside of your own base's D then it your own fault.

Protoss, because they have strong attacks and strong shields. Plus, they have Reavers backed up with cannons, which are phenomenal. Protoss by far.

Obviously the most powerful are the protos, if you consider hitpoints(life) and resistivity, but they have not been provided with any healing factor. Perhaps if they had, they woul be unbeatable.
In terms of defence , I feel terrain is the best. Human tanks in siege mode are devastating.

Based on playing Multi-player no one race is more powerful than the other. Everything depends on what race you are playing against. If you are playing a No Rules No time limit skermish, then Zerg would be your best choice because you could just do a Ling rush.
If you are playing a No Rush Map Max scenario, then you may want to be protoss and build up to do recall.
There are way to many scenarios to list, to show the differences in the strengths and weaknesses in all 3 races. What it comes down too is watching the races the other people choose, and choosing yours right before the game starts accordingly. Also, you have to pay attention to what kind of game you are entering into.
Starcraft Rules!
