This make no freaking sense.
Terran are biological weaker than protoss and zerg. Protoss has superior tech and psionic power. Zerg has ravenous number. Not to mention that EVERY SINGLE Protoss and Zerg are warriors. Compare to Terrans, how the hell did they keep up with those two mighty species?

Protoss:
Technology Advancement
Psionic Power
Planet Glassing (more powerful than nukes of terrans)
Most Protoss are fighters

Zerg:
Biological Superior
# Superior (Overrun planets w/ an ease)
All Zerg ARE Combatants

Terrans:
LOL?

Easy, they took the least amount of damage.(looks like being a divided race paid off)

The Protoss took a massive loss when the Zerg invaded Auir and the Zerg took even more when the UED rofl stomped them in Char(along with the broodwar going on).

Then Jim Raynor repeated that step with the Xel'naga artifact detonating on Chars main hive broods when most of the zerg were off world.

Also Superior tech and psionics don't matter as much if honor before reason kicks in. The Zerg may have numbers but without any leader figure they fall apart in anarchy.(The Protoss aren't a warrior race, they do have a civilian populace).

Even if they are weaken they are nowhere as powerful as Protoss or Zerg in lore. Zerg still had superior number, and Protoss superior to terran in almost all aspect. Unless there is an asspull created by Bliz that over 25% of Terrans are part of the military, then I might change my mind

That doesn't matter since the Zerg and Protoss never made any actual concentrated effort to wipe the Terrans off the Korpulu sector.
Any major terran planet that was attacked either evacuated a sizable portion of it's populace or was just left alone after a few major battles(Tarsonis was able to evacuate and Moria was just attacked for it's huge mineral deposits then left alone afterward).

Dorkmaster isn't any fun.

Both the protoss and the zerg have plenty of weaknesses and the terran know where to hit them where it hurts. This makes the Terran a force to wreakon with, despite their lack of quantity and quality over armies. Terrans are no stranger to hardship either. In terms of front line battle, either it be bio-infantry or heavy-duty mech, the Terrans have just as good, if not better, tactics and strategics.

Keep in mind as well that Terrans no doubt have the best defensive strategies, making them well known for their 'turtle' capabilities; survival is not a problematic issue.

Like Destroyer mentioned it is the Zerg and Protoss who have suffered the most. After all this is their war. The Terran are just stuck in the middle of it.

This.

If the protoss or zerg made an effort to completley wipe out the terran instead of eachother, they would be gone.

Most terrans are pretty much gone after the great war (casualty greater than protoss or probably even greater than zerg), 9 out of 13 terran worlds were crushed and waste. I still don't see how they have power to retaliate against protoss or zerg. Do they really reproduce that fast?

Where are you getting your numbers? Because the official Blizzard results puts the number of Terrans at about 12 billion from just the three capitol worlds(there are a lot more worlds), where the zerg are about 10 billion at the start of the second great war(5 billion more if you include Aiur, but I think they are not under Kerrigans control). Note that the zerg raped the Protoss homeworld and hit their pop hard(they already had a low pop. and this is the reason they use so many robots).

Also note once more--since it was already pointed out I think more than once-- that the Terran did not take the full force of either the zerg or Protoss during the great war. And I think received improvements to their tech from the UED forces.

After the Great war the Protoss are a fading race, the zerg rebuilding, and the Terran holding strong.


Oh, and MP you have this Gameplay > Lore.

Because Blizzard is related to the terrans so they are biased

You also have to remember since protoss and zerg are relatively new to terran tech they might not know how to counter it effectively (for example protoss might not use shields because of emp and zerg would make more brofestors)

I am talking about before brood war, the Zerg Overmind lay waste on 9 out 13 planets, now terran population are up to billions, wtf?

That was 9 out of 13 of the confederate planets, not the full number of human planets. Also, keep in mind the Zerg didn't kill every last human on those planets, the only planet that had its population fully decimated was chau sara, all the other planets were at least partially evacuated before the full population was destroyed.

Hard to believe that terran weapons such as the machine guns from marines can takeout shields of a a species with far more advanced technology......dont protoss have any weapons that are better than the "nuke"...like...a....supernova nuke or sum thin...
