The OP is whining about people whining...oh the ironing! If you're winning games how can you possibly get mad? I give exactly 0 fucks what the opponent(s) have to say to me whether I win or lose, and if they nerdrage at me for winning I'm probably even laughing. Actually I've ended up having rather cordial post-game convos with opponents after games on occasion, even going so far as to join up with some for team games and/or add them to my friends list. I feel like it's the same way for the majority of other players as well. You're taking protoss hatred way too personally, dawg. Loosen up and have fun.

This is an awesome analogy

Can't really say I enjoyed the read because it was a lot of poorly articulated whining that is easily condensed into the below:

I am a master league protoss player
me and my friend are currently the second best double protoss team in the world!!
I feel like i'm not being appreciated for the skill that i've acquired over the years i've been playing this game.
I feel like there's been a "Protoss OP" hype train
people don't "gg" or people actively say shit against our race
I get so mad sometimes.
I really felt like I played well, but my oponent can never appreciate that
just go ahead and continue your retarded whining. But guess what, you're hurting me

I don't take pleasure in being a dick, but to be completely honest, nobody cares. I'm not saying you're wrong about anything balance wise or the tendencies of other players you mentioned, but what I get from your post is that you think you deserve respect that you are never going to get.

I get that it's a rant, but I don't know what kind of constructive comments you're expecting. Just kind of sounds like you want some other butthurt protoss players (can't really think of a more accurate/pleasant way to say it) to join in and have a circle jerk about how people are meanie pants.

Nothing is going to change. The gaming community has always been like this and, in my opinion, will always be like that people are idiots. Yep... shit sucks.

I agree with this post so much

The reason people dislike protoss nowadays has nothing to do with brood war. People dislike protoss because of the insane amount of stuff they can get away with, and to which it is extremely to react even if you see it coming from miles away.

I don't like playing against protoss because as a silver league terran, I lack the micro needed to defeat a deathball consisting of templar and colossi. I just don't have the skill. I do find it a bit dishonest that I have to micro my heart out whereas the Protoss player just has to a-move his army and cast some storms.

The game may be balanced for people in masters and up, but for lower-tier players it definitely is not, and it kind of takes away a lot of the fun. It has nothing to with "get better". Protoss is just easier to play in the lower leagues.

i have 3 accounts and play all 3 races and sometimes play as random.

over the past 6 months i've ranked as low as #1 gold and as high as #1 diamond. usually my Zerg account gives me the best ranking and Terran my lowest rank. but, i have the most fun with my Terran account.

unless you're in the top 100 of the GM league its not worth it to get all worked up about these balance issues.

i probably have the most fun with my platinum league account. i can play around a bit and have some fun.
my diamond account(s) feel too much like work....

just play the games and enjoy the explosions guys.

1 thing i like to do is get an economic lead on my opponent and then build the worst army possible against what they have in their army.

sometimes doing this i lose games i might otherwise win, but i've already got a job... i don't need another one.
