1. Zerg won the group, not Protoss
2. The other Protoss came in dead last in the group. Granted, he was the weakest of the 4, so that's about what I'd expect. So overall Toss finished 2 and 4 out of 4.
3. Trap played some excellent matches. He also has a winning record against Byun in their offline matches (10-5), and was 2-3 in tournament play going in, so not far behind even there. Not saying Byun isn't the better player overall, but Trap has historically played very well against him.
Not sure how any of that is evidence of Protoss being imba. Trap played really well, Byun played pretty well too, but he made a couple key mistakes (like not scouting the proxy in the 1st match up, and losing his army to the stasis trap in this one.)

Agreed Shaz. Terran has all of the tools necessary to crush toss currently. Innovation rolled over a lot of the top tier protoss in the recent IEM korean qualifiers.
And while "just play like innovation" has sort of become a cliche, this proves that its merely of factor of how two individuals' styles matchup against one other - not 'imba' race-based nonsense. Byun made 0 tanks in all 4 matches against Trap
Byun, true to his style, was constantly attacking in to Trap who defended everything with amazing competence. It doesnt matter which race you play, if you spend 10 minutes losing units and doing almost no damage you will lose the game.

Trap played really well, years in the making, just like Rogue.
