Switching to Zerg

So after playing for a few weeks and having trouble accomplishing much, I have decided to switch my race to zerg. I did this for a couple of reasons.

First off I wanted to switch to zerg to improve my speed and multitasking. Even after just playing zerg for a couple of weeks ( I haven't really gotten to play much) I can already see the improvement in my speed. This should help my overall game play.

Secondly I switched to zerg in preperation for HOTS. I don't really like the new units that blizzard has come up with for toss, so I decided to move to a race that I did like the changes for. Zerg seems like they are going to have a lot of cool stuff in the new expansion. I guess thats to be expected since its their expansion.

Finally, I just wanted to. I have always loved the way zerg overpowered their enemies by sheer numbers. So I decided that with their now numerous option of game play there is no time like the present to switch.

As far as my streaming goes, I haven't been streaming. That shouldn't be the case for long though. I bought more ram, to help with my stream. My computer hasn't been able to handle it really since one of my ram cards burned out. Anyways though, please if you could follow my stream on twitch.tv/goodmourning20 I would really appriciate it. I really could use more viewers.

And my clan is still growing and looking for members. It would be great to have more people to practice with and maybe have to put on a tourniment. We accept bronze through masters. Come check us out at clanbod.net. All you have to do is fill out an application and your in.

Hopefully laddering goes well. Wish me luck, im trying to get in to plat even though it still is a little out of my grasp at the moment.

Very nice switch, Z is the best one

although as far as streaming goes, dont expect over 2 viewers unless you are in masters...then expect about 10. The most popular non featured streamers will not go past 100 most of the time, and that will presumably be at the top of your game...

so unless you are GM or going pro, dont expect too much

it doesnt all have to be about streaming though, just play with your friends and have fun

That is not because you play zerg, other races has to multitask just as much or more.

I wouldn't say zerg is the most demanding when it comes to multitasking or tactical moves. Zerg is more of the a move and overwhelm with numbers race. Terran is probably the more multastking race

Zerg takes good multi tasking as well believe it or not. Spreading creep and not missing injects being big ones. Unlike terran/toss who can build up energy and it not matter if our queens build up energy and we are missing injects that hurts us greatly. Spreading creep and injecting and then having to deal with drops at the same time it takes a lot more then you think ^^.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Although I haven't played in weeks, I have been considering switching from protoss to zerg as well in preparation for HOTS. I don't feel that Protoss will be significantly changed the way zerg might. The oracle I never liked in the first place. Some harassment unit we get that can't kill workers. Tempest seems like it might be useless. The zerg units though seem a lot more practical. I suppose we will have to wait until beta before I should make these assumptions though.

Thats exactly how I feel about toss in HOTS.

I also feel the same way about Protoss and am debating switching. Good luck with the transition.

I'm going to stick with Protoss just because I'm already the only one of my friends who plays it, and with the patch there's going to be no Protoss left... Someone has to stay behind and represent Auir. Tassadar didn't give up on us and I'm not going to give up on him. En Taro Tassadar!
But I'm off creep... and so I slow down, what are hellions doing here? I don't belong here...
