the seemingly powerful race in starcraft that dies to the weak looking zerg race in lost temple almost every single time.

One of three playable races in the game Starcraft by Blizzard Entertainment. They're the opposites of the scale compared to the Zerg. The Protoss are a stoic, psionically enhanced species which represent what we would know as the pinnacle of evolution. They are few in number, but each unit is incredibly powerful. One of the favorite units of Protoss enthousiasts is the Archon.
"Protoss" means "The Firstborn". In the storyline behind the game, they are the first creation of the Xel'Naga, a most likely extinct species which was obsessed with creating the ultimate lifeform.
The Protoss represent the purity of form. The Zerg represent the purity of essence.

The Protoss's worst enemy is the Terran's EMP Shockwave.
I am Protoss. I am complete. The Conclave will overcome. Hail Tassadar.

From the Starcraft gaming community, similar to "Zerged".
Protossed is being just stream-rolled by a blatantly overpowered race, or imbalance in the game.

He was so far ahead in that game, but then he got PROTOSSED by that unresolved imbalance!! Just disgusting!

Billy : I like to play Protoss in Starcraft.
Fred : I prefer Zerg.
Billy : Well, my Dark Templar will kick your Zerg ground units any day.
Fred : Well, I would show you who's ground units would be kicked.
Billy: You would bet on that?

One of the playable races in Starcraft: Brood War and Starcraft 2.
Protoss units are the strongest of all races, but are the most expensive so they often get outnumbered.
Due to the ease of controlling less units, having stronger units, the versatility of photon cannons, and building warping, Protoss is considered as the "noob-friendly" race and it's the most overplayed race in online Starcraft.
Yet in competitive level Starcraft, Protoss is considered as the weakest race since with greater multitasking and tactics involved amongst competitive Starcraft, Zerg and Terran players trump Protoss ones.
