    I'm sticking with Terran. We're both human, we both love big guns, we both love women, and we both love money.

    And nukes.
    Big. Freaking. Nukes.

    Zerg will pwn you all.

    But I'm not loyal to any race. Zerg just look the coolest.

    Zerg are weaker because the strategy is to overwhelm the opponent with numbers. Most likely you've been playing against some weak zerg players to say that they are easy to beat.

    I'm getting very pissed at myself that I keep changing my favorite race every other day. I really want to kill myself. :-\
    But I just can't help it. I have made my mind.

    I will wait till after BlizzConn, and see what they got in stores for all 3 races. Then I will finally decide which race I am going to stick to.

    Haha, I don't think having trouble over choosing a race is anywhere close to worthy of suicide. ;)
    I strongly believe that after BlizzCon, lots of people are going to change the race they're planning on playing. The few die hard fans of one race from way back to the original will stay strong, but people are going to be band wagon hopping back and forth for awhile until the game finally comes out.

    Yea, I guess I will be one of them. I didn't have a favorite race back in SC1 because I always used the race depending on my mood. Although I was decent with all 3 races, I was never very good with 1. I want to change that around in SC2 in that I truly master the art of 1 race. So haha, I need to decide that before the game releases but from the looks of it, it is very hard for me because I keep switching back and forth everyday. :-\ :-\ :-\

    Ummm... no Ych9. Sorry buddie, but can't have you goin' around killing yourself. Kinda need ya around here man.

    But on the topic of being good with all three races VS mastering just one race, I strongly recommend any and all players to stick with one. It is infinitely more rewarding in the long run to be able to play a single race to the maximum potential possible by any individual. And when you get that good with one race, you kinda end up being not so bad with the rest.

    And yeah, live. Can't go dying before playing SC2.

    Don't worry Remy. I won't commit suicide until after I crack open Blizzards headquarter and find some secret Zerg info for you. ;D ;D ;D

    Back on topic, yea I agree with you. That's why I have decided to stick with one race for SC2. Just watching all those Pro Koreans play actually made me decided to do that because all of them were masters of 1 race. That is if only I could just stick with 1 race without changing it every other day. :-\ :-\ :-\

    Well, 4 more days. I gotta see whats in stores for all 3 races before I decide. ;)

    What I am torn about personally is whether I want more people to play as Zerg or not.

    Zerg has so many strengths and are so flexible, I just love Zerg, I'm sure anyone who's been on these forums for a while knows this.

    I want to advertise the greatness of Zerg to as many people as I can, so they can enjoy the same joys and rewards. However, at the same time I don't want too many people to play as Zerg so Zerg strats aren't too well known and overused. On the other hand, the more people playing Zerg, the more likely we'll discover more strats quickly. Then again... even if there was absolutely no sharing of information for SC2 for everyone, I don't really think I'll have trouble coming up with Zerg strats on my own.

    I'm completely torn.

    I'll actually have to play through the game as all the races first, and decide which one I like best in SC2 before I make any choices.

    I only play Zerg when I wanna see my units get slaughtered despite their overwhelming numbers.

    Im admire Protoss, they look cool but I've always been best with Terran. I voted protoss though.

    I'm sure all 3 races will be around equal in terms of usage. So it is going to be hard to keep strategies a secret. All the well known ones will be out in no time. But then of course, you could develop your own unique play style and tactics and that would be a totally different story.

    Although in SC1 I wasn't particularly good with any race, I was actually the best with Terrans. I can say that I was very good at managing the Tank push. I could beat most of my friends with a well established Tank push. It looks like in SC2, the Terrans are going to be even stronger of a pusher with the introduction of the Thors.

    So I'm still torned on what race I should master. Should I use the race I'm best with? Or should I use the race that I think is the coolest. Because if I am going to master the race I'm best with, it would most likely be Terrans. But if I'm going by the theme of coolness, it maybe the Zergs or the Protoss. Although Terrans are also cool too.

    Time will tell. 4 days left only. I can't wait till all the info starts swimming in. :)

    I am very excited to see the new design of the Seige Tank which I beleive they said they would show at Blizzcon.

    I am torn between Terran and Protoss as I have never really been too fond of the Zerg. The only thing that is bothering me about Protoss is the stalker/immortal new dragoon design which I don't like much.

    I would most probably play protoss mainly, of course that doesn't mean i wont play the other races, besides i don't even have starcraft so i dont know a lot about each race, the reason is the graphics are to bad for me and i mind as well wait for Starcraft II to come out. Protoss has just always been my favorite because they are a highly advanced race in technology and every thing looks really awesome.
