I am now swapping my main race from Terran to Zerg.

I have no idea how, but my ZvP, ZvT, and ZvZ all are positive win ratios for me. My Terran this season is craptacular (I dunno how my 12-11 terran last season went to 2-15)
(vs Z/P/T)
Zerg 10-6 | 63% | 16 games
1-0 (100%) 4-3 (57%) 5-3 (63%)

Terran 2-15 | 12% | 17 games
0-9 (0%) 1-5 (17%) 1-1 (50%)

Clearly I must be doing something right as Zerg that I'm not doing as Terran. Fuck, I even have a positive win ratio against Protoss. That has NEVER happened. And my wins aren't all 3 hatch mutaling anymore. They're actually legitimate wins.

This must have something to do with how I learned to lurker push the other day. Thanks Faust ^^

FINE WE DIDNT WANT YOU ANYWAY

EDIT: Really, it should just come down to which race you would rather play, and enjoy more. If you just play the race you're better with, you definately won't enjoy the game and will lose your passion to practice and get better. It really just comes down to whether or not you really enjoy being a Zerg more than a Terran, in my opinion.

Well, I find both races to be equally fun. Like there's this joy that I get whenever I take a pair of vultures and just rape the shit out of every single probe/SCV/drone at your base. Or when I have 12 marines rape the shit out of your lurkers by dancing them around. Or when I irradiate the crap out of a zerg army. Or when goons melt in front of my tanks.

But I'm a naturally sneaky person, and zerg is a sneaky race. Stop lurkers? Burrow-lings? Flanks? There's nothing quite like planting lurkers right next to all your workers and watching them pop. Or watching 20 marines standing around when lurker spines erupt everywhere spilling terran blood everywhere. Or watching dragoons futilely try and dance against your flanking zerglings. Or watching a small group of marines try and break your sunkens only for some lings to get them from behind. So I guess that they're about even in terms of enjoyability.

But I can win with zerg. GG.

when you wait for them to move out and rape the shit out of their army and then their base with 90 lings and 10 mutas it is

It's very possible that you just ran into a string of easier opponents while you happened to be Protoss. It's not like you played a shitload of games.
By the same token, you may have run into some really difficult opponents playing Terran, went on tilt, and got worse.
But if you enjoy both equally, oh well.

Pulp can move, baby!

oh, you mean expanding to a third base early upon scouting one rax-gas or low marine count? I did that today. Was fun. Raped a mnm force with 8 lings and two sunks trying to take out my early ass second expo. Then proceeded to stop lurker his push, hahaha.

3 Hatch Hydra break vs terran is also fun. It's a lot more feasible on maps like Tau Cross and Blue Storm than python though. Nothing quite like making your opponent mass missile turrets thinking muta or lurkers and just raping the shit out of his low marine count with hydras.

As for me just running into a string of strong opponents as T, i am 0-9 TvZ. 0-9. It's not even lurkers anymore. It's defiler push into my main. This one game I had a HUGE advantage (3base t vs 2 base z) and i lost b/c of swarm push. On the other hand, I am 5-3 ZvT. One was 7 Rax FBH, and one was a perfectly executed bunker rush, while my wins were all standard, so I think I will do much better as zerg.

Also attn: Terrans, you make too few medics. In a 12 Marine/Firebat + 2 Medic group, you will get owned by mutaling. If you have 4 medics it will be much harder to kill them off with mutaling.

You can atone for your sins for being a Terran imba scum in the past. Welcome to the Swarm, our religion = Savior and our Leader = Jaedong
Jaedong is the Hope of Zergs.

protoss sucks

any race that has 1a2a3a4a5a and ez wins is dumb

kmon u guys have carriers and reavers and zealots and fucking invisible analrapers. A-move = gg.

And you can now dance dragoons.
And you have psi storm. And cannons. And stasis. And recall.

Terrans only have like science vessels and tanks and you have to be careful with those. Sure we have mines but when was the last time you saw stasis backfire on somebody? And marines suck against you.

Zerg have like... plague and swarm. And those are all late game, we have to mass hydras and dodge your damn storms and its just a huge pain in the ass. And then sometimes it doesnt even matter cuz u kill all our damn overlords and rape all our guys with dark templar or a single shuttle with two reavers.

Saying you switch from terran to zerg is just like saying you switched from gay to straight. No matter how manly you think you are you still got it up in the ass and that will haunt you forever.
