The word fork was coined by Mind(Sung Gyoon Park). It was first used when he was teaching terran beginners. To them he mockingly said, "Why use chopsticks(terran) when you can fork(protoss) it?”, joking that they chose the wrong race. Since protoss were often called out as a race that owes their lower level victories to its high skill floor, the word caught on. From then, protoss getting victory from simply a-moving their low tech units, was called forking.

[@mathias8013]

Protoss is really only the weakest at a pro-level of play. So for 99.9% of players Protoss is the easiest thus making it the strongest.

[@phoenixlich]

i see where you're coming from if you look at tournament wins and highest echelons of ranked ladder, but from 0-2500 mmr it's protoss that is easiest to play and win. RT makes legit irrefutable arguments about some of their advantages considering in the 90s blizzard had no idea what they were doing and never made this game with 30 years of competitive esports in mind. FACTS: toss have higher average supply per unit which = more supply per control group which = fewer control groups to manage; toss has < or = the number of spell casting units as other races; gateways are easier to manage than buildings with required add-ons (that also take up more space) and larva; probes are fastest builder unit and can immediately return to gathering after starting a building; storm is most cost efficient spell in the game when used well and easiest to use well. There may be other reasons, but that's enough to demonstrate that if you want to get into the game and climb ladder toss is more beginner friendly.

[@mathias8013]

Although you are of course right, some parts are easier and some harder. In this case, it really is that simple - Protoss is objectivly all things considered the easiest race.

[@lifenote1943]

@@mathias8013 maybe skill floor but to win in PvT for example at pro level you gotta do intense shuttle micro and shit. Meanwhile all the terran does is siege up and lay mines, turtle on 3 bases. This is coming from a terran player btw, is it hard to do what I just said for terran? Yes, but all pros can do that, and once we get to that pro level, all of the weight falls on the toss to outplay the T, both tactically and mechanically. Can't speak for PvZ.

[@Zraknul]

What strategy are you surprized that doesn't seem to exist? For me it's in PvT, with carrier + Arbiter. Recalling carriers across the map seems like a great boost to their biggest weakness, mobility. It looks like the time investment is the bigger problem than the minerals/gas.

[@sulik682]

It is expensive to get arbiter tribunal, an arbiter, AND research recall but I think in a super lategame type scenario yes, around 500 mineral + gas to get it but being able to ping them across the map once army is out of position would be extremely powerful.

[@dj_koen1265]

Carriers NEED critical mass to be effective And once you have critical mass you are in such an advantageous position that its better to try and end the game immediately Arbiters are just too slow and if you go arbiters you don’t need the carriers because the strength of arbiters is hitting before your opponent can defend against them

[@canag0d]

Something I haven’t seen anyone mention, is that all players are different. We all think differently and that completely effects which race we view as easy. Protoss often are strong in early to mid game against Terran. However the Terran is often turtling most of the game waiting for +2 and a timing attack that can steamroll Protoss most of the time. So as a player, if you think more aggressively and creatively than you’ll probably find Protoss easier to play. However if you like to 2 base turtle and not scout than you’ll be like RT and play Terran.

[@mathias8013]

Sure mate, but all of the being said, Protoss is still objectivly the easiest race for 99% of players thus making it "the easiest race".

[@canag0d]

@@mathias8013 Well I don’t know where you’re getting your facts from, but I don’t think Protoss is the easiest. Seems you just invented that “99%” statistic up. Anyways, It might be the easiest to start on as a newbie, I’ll give you that, but playing at the pro level I think it’s the hardest.

At the highest level I think Terran and Zerg are better. Zerg has mobility and crazy macro, and Terran has heavy firepower and zone control. Protoss has slight aoe and durability, but ina game where both sides are playing at the highest level, I think Protoss strengths are a lot less pronounced then the Zerg and especially terran ones. The flip side is that Zerg and terran are much more open to costly mistakes that can kneecap them early, where Protoss builds are generally safer and relatively straightforward. I think this is why Protoss may be easier to get into, and qualify with, but at the higher end of things they fall apart against Zerg and Terran in the late game.

[@amendment5604]

Below ACS and ASL levels, Protoss is obviously and objectively the easiest race. Especially on the ladder in a best of 1 format with so many strong cheeses. But at the highest levels, Protoss players just get wrecked. Weakest race in the top tier.

[@Redarmy1917]

Grubby is the only one smart enough to actually know Protoss is the hardest race to play. The only race that requires shuttle micro. The only race that relies pretty heavily on casters no matter the match up. It's the race with the literal dumbest fucking unit when it comes to pathing, the dragoon. Which needs to be babied anywhere remotely near ramps. Only race with a unit that can legitimately miss any shot regardless of elevation. Only race that can pretty consistently lose a match up within the first 5 minutes, hydra bust kinda fucking wrecks it. Meanwhile Terran just has to make a bio ball VS Zerg, press t to stim and a click and wins. As long as a Terran player isn't bad and sits on two base the entire game, TvP is a cakewalk.

Im glad Artosis wont let this go. Whats weird to me is how anyone genuinely think its not Protoss. I feel like this has been understood since the very beginning of SC. I remember a clear consensus of P easiest, T hardest, Z somewhere in between. No one whined, it was just known. EDIT: ok lets make this more clear. This is really about Skill Floor (how good u can be right away) and Skill Ceiling (how good you can be after mastery) P: high floor and low ceiling. Easy to be good right away. But not much room to excel/not much payoff for mastery. T: the opposite of P Z: somewhere in between Its settled!
