    I've been cheating on Terran with Protoss in Brood War and now I get a bad taste in my mouth when I try and play Terran.
    Am I a bad person?

    and the humans are terran!

    I think everyone has already drawn these conclusions already many many many times.

    I've always hated the Zerg though. The units are too weak and you need too many of them... like a swarm... to really do anything.

    Gonna play Zerg on Multiplayer, all races in Campaign. Actually, I hate Zerg campaigns but love their PvP and PvC power. Gotta love swarms.

    Although Protoss will be my main race for online (bnet) games, I still love the other 2 races! So far I think ill stick with toss but ill see after playing the campaign and if i like the new units.

    I can just come up with so much stuff as Protoss but I can't get that creative as Terran.

    But moving your production buildings up near the front line is so fun.
    Marines, bats, tanks, and goliaths with bunkers and turrets scattered around your forward operating base.

    Its all about the Terran for me! But I think I'm gonna cheat with the Protoss a couple of times and see which one is my race (just started multiplayer). I hate the zerg, I hate their missions, i hate bulding a billion hatcheries....only thing i like is how small you need to make your bases :p

    I dunno, those hatcheries take up a lot of room when you build a bunch of them.

    I'm going to bide my time, and see which race is more imba. I've learned my lesson that I should not pick first since for starcraft and warcraft I've always managed to pick the weakest race as favorites to be loyal toward.

    There is no weaker race in starcraft. Only races you are better or worse at.

    Well, considering the game's played by human beings, there has to be better/worse races. Though adaptations are possible, I doubt statistics will ever claim equality.

    Have fun analyzing which race is statistically superior patch after patch, while the rest of us put in time to consistantly get better at our main race.

    This might sound insulting, altough it is not directed at you personally, but I have no respect for people who choose mains in any game based on "flavor of the month." I've always had mad respect for people who stick with less popular and lower tiered characters in fighting games, and over time perfect their skills to an art.

    i change up my strategy all the time to keep it fresh. I don't look at replays and I don't know what the big thing people are trying now is.

    This is completely off the subject, but Paragon, I feel very uncomfortable everytime I read your posts.

    This girl keeps staring at me.  I also have a hard time severing the connection between Paragon and reaver, and adopting the new connection with the staring girl.  I actually have to take a few seconds each time to mentally draw a picture of the old reaver avatar and convince myself that this post really is by Paragon.

    I think I make eye contact with that girl at least three times each time a read a short post.  Scary.

    She beckons your attention with her sexy look. The reaver had to go, it way making people think I liked protoss the best.

    I hope they fix up the replay thing in SC2 because sometimes I would watch a replay right after playing a match and the replay would literally have nothing to do with the game i played. The races and positions would be the same but nothing that happened in the game would be even remotely similar. It was very odd.

    Well...I just recently started to SC again like..couple of months ago after I was done with college orientation and high school. Anyhow, I tend to stick to the zergs, mainly because of the rush and the units are expendable (except the expensive ones). And also, the hatcheries are fun to play with lol! Just place them all over, and just constantly send units to areas and stuff. But I hope that there will be new stategies for the zergs other than rushing.
    My seond favorite is the protoss, mainly because I suck playing with them..IT's..just kinda hard to develop quickly with them and also somewhat expensive in gas as well. But it doesn't stop me from playing as them..I will master the protoss!!

    Yeah 350 Vespene for the Arbiter not including 400+ extra for the spell upgrades was a bit aggrivating.
    I find the key to Protoss is have a strategy in mind when you go into the game, get ready to build counter units you see what the other player is making, and expand like mad.
