Yes, you heard it. I'm switching races from Terran to Zerg. Screw the broken ZvZ, screw the broken early game, I love zerg. It requires micro. It requires almost BW-esque hectic macro. It's the type of race that rewards fast players (k, well it should :p) and shits on those who aren't 100% in the game. It's the race for players with high willpower, people who can say, "Okay. I know that army is unbreakable, but I WILL find a way."

QQ is overrated. I don't need to QQ about zerg. I just need to play better than every opponent I face, and if I still lose, I need to play even better. I'm tired of winning easy games, and I want to improve. That's how you improve guys, and improvement is why I'm switching to zerg. :D
Lol :D

I did the same thing a while back and then starting getting bored of zerg. It's really a love or it or hate it thing... the play style is completely reactionary. I went back to Terran because theres so much more to do with the race.

Don't worry, once you play enough turtling terrans with siege ...

You'll understand the current situation.
You are now breathing manually.

Don't shit up TL's SC2 forums with posts that belong on B.net forums. And read the 10 Commandments.

If you like playing Zerg the most, then go for it.

Balance shouldn't be the deciding factor in what race you play, considering the game is going to change a lot.

Good luck dude. You'd understand the QQ by the time you get around 500+ games. But the patch is coming anyway.

Blog it up if you'd like, just don't treat the SC2 forums like your own sounding board (unless you're really really really really good.)

Glad you're coming over, though. I was preparing to switch from Z to T at the end of phase 1, but decided not to when it become the "in" thing. :|

I've actually been teaching a guy who wants to transition from T to Z. He went from a Platinum Terran to a Bronze Zerg. >< He's definitely been improving, though. Zerg isn't for everyone, but if you have the passion it can be really rewarding.

I've been considering switching at Protoss, actually, as I find it almost as fun and I think I'll be able to go a lot further with it. We'll see how the patch turns out before I do anything drastic, though.

Well yeah I see what you're saying about the sounding board thing. Sorry bout that yo.

I found zerg to be fun xD. It's SOO hard to handle the different types of strategies terran can through at you.

Protoss is such a funny race. A person with 30 apm can be 1400 points using protoss, if they're messed up enough. Cough-CombatEX-Cough

Jus kiddin. Seriously though, Protoss is a very very weird race.
Lol :D
