It's not like you have to stick with a particular race.
I started off as a Terran player, but then people started complaining about how Z>P.
So I changed to Z to abuse that match-up.
After the new maps/ FE style I changed to protoss.

If you're already at a high level with one race I see why you might be reluctant to change, but you're at a low level anyway so it doesn't really matter. Maybe you'll play protoss for a bit, realise their shortcomings and become a stronger zerg player.

Or just stop making excuses, you do mention you lose because you suck, so just leave it at that, no need to incite race related flaming.



I have played a bit with Terran and Protoss, I just like Zerg more, and with regards to your last sentence, it's my blog and I'll cry if I want to!

Rants are okay, it's just the first paragraph puts you across as a bit of a jerk.
No I'm never serious.

I suppose so - but I guess that happens when you are pissed off and frustrated. We have all been there.

wtf man, you zerg have those maphack overlords that counters any early game attack. If you already scouted a 2 gate or a 3 gate, I don't see how you could possibly lose if he isn't miles above in skill level.
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

watch progamer vod's?


i do watch progamers vods, but as I said, at a higher level, any imbalance Protoss may have (and it may well be none) would be negated by the skill of the players themselves. For someone like me who is comparatively speaking just starting out, it is a different ball game.

When I was a 'lower level' zerg. I did the same build every game. 3 hat (no third) lair-hydraspeed then no range then lurker then dual exo then 2 gas pure lurker sunken/spore pump until ultras only defence scourge/overlord scouts Lots of drop.

I go overpool 9 every game ..... every game in zvp and zvt. This season I've decided to man up and 12hat against all the 2gates and proxy raxes.

If they 2 gate and you go 9lord9hat-11pool you can build 2 sunkens 6 lings and mass drone until saturation ( gas before 18) and run them over with pure hydra - hydra/ling - hydra/lurker (not many lurkers)

hmm... look at anything other then FE to be giving you the advantage.... and make sure to as quickly as possible deduce what you can take advantage of (oh late gas expo first, hydra push) .... or (oh, early gas no expo, 4 hat hydra sucka) ..ect ... Look at protoss as giving YOU the advantage when they play 1gate or 2 gate.... because theoretically they are.

The real problem your facing is an utter rapedown from higher level players. There are people at my level (fuck you kwark) that are so good with scouting probes that every game I play terrible because I get so distracted by a 50 dollar worker .... Man up man. And until maybe 2006 or so every protoss in the world said "PvZ OMFG LURKERS AND uLTRAS WHAT THE FUCK!" ..... I'm happy protoss turned out to be a strong race because we spent years and years getting free wins ZvP .

im fairly sure your opponents are just better than you

On ICCUP, 75% of low level tosses 2 gate rush. Sometimes I defend it, sometimes I don't. That is fine, since every time I face it, my micro gets a little better, and I beat it off more often than not now.
