Starcraft 2 is one of the best games that I have ever played. However, I am lousy with online play which makes me wonder how to play. Theres so many options it can be confusing. My main problem is what to play, which is a toss-up between Terran and Protoss. I guess some experimentation is in order.

Sc2 is pretty good, yea, but its not brood war

I think subliminally you've already indicated which race you want to pick. "toss-up" is clearly you saying that Toss is up, and so you should choose it

nice find

imo a friend and i were in the same spot, so we just flipped coins til we decided which race was better for us

i ended up Protoss
he ended up Terran

so just flip coins ^___^

Liquipedia is a good place to start. Ignore the TL strategy forum for Sc2 because it is full of bad.

You can't decide between Protoss and Terran? Join the swarm!
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

He knowssss what he sayssss. We own them both racesss with NPsss. GL, it will get easier with time, guaranteed. Also, play all challenges if you want to get a little more confident with all the races (in less stressful environment). And perhaps play vs AI.
