(myself included)
I'm the lowest, BW terran to SC2 zerg
But I secretly always wanted to be a zerg in BW, where terran always seemed like a big economic behemoth, zerg was like an art form
Zerg is by far the most challenging to play now due to the nonstop nerfs in beta. I still don't understand why they increased the cost of overlord speed. To this day I can't figure that out.. I mean was it seriously OP?

You can't expect to be totally even every second of the game and blaming everything imbalance if you have to defend during the game. Just because you're playing Zerg doesn't mean you can play Zerg SC1 style -20 mutas would just as easily die to Science Vessels and Zerglings melt from M&M anyway.
Terran in SC1 is more like ... defend all the gay shit that the other races can throw at you until you finally manage to win.

Yeah it sucks that Terran has a gazillion equally powerful moves they can make early game, all of which can be got off of THREE tech buildings. Each is equally devastating but requires a different counter. Sometimes you're counter won't even be enough
Mehh, I know that Zerg looks real shitty and Terran looks very tempting right now, but imo, i feel that Zerg is one of those harder races to master, and it will definitely pay off if you stick to Zerg and and keep trying. Besides, once the long-awaited balance patch comes, I'm sure thigns will seem much better =)

It was uphill every game imo
That is definitely not how TvZ is like lol
If your referring to my post, I was just throwing some examples out -obviously you don't have hard counters like that in SC1. I do maintain that SC1 TvZ for Terran is a very defensive game if you play the standard 1 rax FE.
no way man. stay zerg. there will be a patch that will come eventually that will help us out. and besides its not really that bad. but id say you need a good 30 apm advantage over your opponent if you are zerg.

Times when TvZ is defensive: During Mutalisk Harass (Kind of, there's usually a roaming group around the map as well) Late game mech transition Times when TvZ is offensive: Everything else.
Don't side with the Terran scum! Be a man and take all the Marauders/Reapers/Hellions/Banshees he tries to shove up your ass. Because he'll be hurting much more when you start shoving ULTRALISKS up his.
