I cannot decide what race i want to play at all, and i don't really want to play random as i would like to stick with one race and play with one race. i am asking for advice, what race do you guys play and why? Have you ever had this problem ! Have you got over it?  Thanks very much!  | ||

this way if you decide you dont like terran, the switch to a new race is easier on you, and you have vast experience of both sides of the fence when whining about imba stuff  | ||

There's certainly nothing wrong with staying at random for a while The choice is yours, and yours alone! Good luck! | ||

but dont let anyone influence you. if you like a specific unit A LOT, then mabe lean toward that race (unless that unit happens to be like a scout which no one uses xD) BTW: what game? sc1 or sc2? | ||

After a few hundred games, I decided to switch to Zerg. The reason I switched was because I felt like Terran wasn't suiting my newly-changed playstyle as well as it could have. I went from being someone who liked to turtle, to being someone who liked to be in my opponent's face all the time. I figured that Zerg allowed me to do that a lot better than T did. A few hundred games as Z ensued, and I got my highest rank on ICCUP at the time with them, shortly after my switch. I then played a bit of off-race as P, once in a while. Scouts are fun to use, contrary to what everyone else says. Granted, I never played anyone higher than D as Protoss..... When SC2 came out, I felt that T would allow me to be in my opponents face all the time. I came up with a 2 port strategy that is similar in use to the 1/1/1 strats used. I relied on tech and maneuverability of those units. After people started to go for 1/1/1 style builds, I changed, and went something more like a FD opening from BW - expand behind a small push at a timing before their tech/fast expo has paid for itself. It's relatively safe, and allowed me to get into the later stages of the game. But it didn't satisfy my need to be in my opponent's face all the time..... I'm a macro oriented player, but I like to be aggressive at the same time. It's hard to explain..... So after a few hundred games of T (a bit after the beta finished), I switched to Z. I still played T now and then, but I mainly played as Z. I found it suited my playstyle better. Muta/ling is the shit. I just hate ZvZ. After a few hundred games, I decided to give P a go in some 2v2. I gotta say, forcefields are soooooo fucking cool to use. So I think that when I get back into playing 1v1 (I haven't played for over a month now, and I really don't feel like playing either), then I'm going to start going Random. I don't have a clue how to play as P, except I know how to abuse the shit out of forcefields, so I've probably got a lot of learning to do. So I'm the exact opposite of you. I can't pick a race, but I gave it a shot and it didn't work. So I want to play Random. | ||

What are you goals for SC2? What league are you in? If you're just playing for fun (which is what most people do), just play whatever race you have the most fun with. It probably won't even hurt to still play random, if that's the most fun for you. The only reason to pick a race and stick with it is if you are trying to be really competitive and learn match-ups for tournaments and the like. If you still feel like you need to pick a race, maybe you could try playing each race exclusively for a week or two, and then settle on whatever felt the best. | ||

I really enjoyed the static D and leapfrog pushing of T coupled with the variation of TvZ micro, even TvT was quite fun + Show Spoiler + Damn the FBH game today was boss SC2 TvP/T *can* be played the way i like it but it's far from the most successful route to take - multipronged drop play is way more favored and marauders (such a boring unit) are unavoidable. Stick to random yo - see what you like. Or just pick protoss. Once PvP is "fixed" i think it'll be the most fun race to play. Atm i wanna tear my hair out when i get back to back PvP's or i'd prolly play Toss as main race. | ||
