Disclaimer: These views are that of mine and mine only. They are not meant to be objective in any way.

I'm finally give up. I've fought too long and too hard for too little.

They say if you can't beat em', join em'.

For too long, I've avoided taking the easy way out. I COULD, but I didn't. I played zerg way back in mid 2010-early 2011. Yep, I played zerg during the dark, horrible days of mass reapers, blue-flame hellions . When bunkers had 30-second build time. When ROACHES WERE RANGE 3.

Then, I switched to Terran, and oh wow, how coincidental - infestors started getting buffed, queens started getting buffed, EVEN FUCKING OVERLORDS started getting buffed...... And terran - oh my I don't even want to talk about it -.-

Enough of it all. It's my turn now to unleash those fuckin' badass lasers, sick storms and imba overcharges upon my poor ladder opponents.

2-BASE COLOSSUS ALL-IN!
PROXY STARGATES!
BLINK ALL-INS!
CANNON-RUSHES!
DTs!
And if all else fails......well......I can still play a standard game and make a late game deathball right? ^^

BE AFRAID. BE VERY VERY AFRAID.

ahahahah man I love u.

This is like my exact story! I started Zerg, went all the way up to masters, and then switched to terran 1 week before queen patch (I remember saying, Range buff on Queen? Meh!)....

I just gave up on terran also (tvp makes my life miserable), but I ain't going to toss yet.......... Back to Zerg for a while!

sounds about right. I was considering race swapping from Terran, but I honestly enjoy Terran its a lot of fun, I do go random in random team games though, but hardcore solo its about Terran.

Last time I checked being Protoss wasn't an instawin. You have to macro and micro just as hard as the other races, just in different ways.
For Aiur!

Depends on how you measure it, I remember it took me about 2 months of practice to climb to masters as T, then it took me about 1 month as Zerg, and a week as Protoss, laughable.

2 months to get to terran master ^^ After a year of trying I gave up and went back to Z... Was that 2010 or something? :D

MASTERS
2 months for T
1 month for Z
1 week for P

'(... I've been playing TERRAN for 12+ years... since blizzard hadn't even thought about broodwar and still hovering over top diamond...

Well I still cant type without looking at the keyboard still, and cant multi task at all

And I love terran too much to ever make a switch... well... if my ratio goes as good as yours I'll be in diamond protoss perhaps 3 years from now, which can't be that bad....

I had a friend in platinum who played Terran. Just couldn't advance. He switched to protoss and made masters in a week. He was the first to admit it was easy as fuck. Good luck, OP. Learn those gimmicks!

So, you're saying whenever you played a race, the balance and/or meta game just happened to turn against that race? That can't be a coincidence, man. Stay the hell outta my race!

I once wanted to switch race to toss but it was just a too boring experience. plus you are a good toss as long as you put those buildings on time and attack with relatively ok forcefields.
