Actually, after you click select all on the hatchery, you only carefully select 2 larvae to carefully make only 2 ovies every 30 secs or so, unless you want to end up with 72 extra supply as with your amazing protossish 5so6so7so, oh and i use '4' for my hatchery, I'm surprised you even considered '5' since being a protoss you need only like 2 hotkeys for your army and your gateways can start on '3'.

Good we have you too balance it up ha?

anyway, I just love it when people constantly find little aspects of game that are easier for one race than the other, and then, in the moment of frustration after a loss, pulling the analogy to the entire race being easier that the other. It's cute imo.

But I hate the fact that some people still wont admit that protoss is the simplest and cleanest race to play. Nobody says they're stronger, but they surely are the race with the least bullshit to put up with.

Don't fucking argue with me. or if you will, plz put it in a spoiler so I dont accidentaly glance over it.

Yes but can your pylons and supply depots get killed by sair or 2port wraith PvZ or TvZ as easy?

2port wraiths sniping ovies is the most frustrating thing in the world. Overlords are so helpless sometimes.

There's so many people saying protoss is the easiest race, however, I've never seen any real arguments or reasons. Saying '1a2a3a' is not an argument. Saying they macro easy is not an argument without quite an extensive explanation. I don't want to argue with you, although I disagree, because I don't think that will do any good. However, I would like you (or someone else if they feel up to it) to explain why you think protoss is the easiest race. I can't think of any convincing reasons myself, so I'm curious really. Maybe you'll even sway me over to the dark side.

@ least your pylons have a lot of hit points, six times the amount of overlords.

Plus it's not like you are going to lose many anyway, zergs lose overlords all game long which stunts their production.

And is it really that hard to place down 5 pylons @ a time? It's not like you really need to watch your army anyway lol.

But I will agree with you having them all as detectors and drop ships are pretty handy.

People play what race fits their style.

Not what is easiest.

It does not require any explaination because it is just observation. It is quite easy to find C-/C protoss with apm about 120 (dont know about higher levels) but all terrans at this rank have at least 150 apm. Protoss mechanics is the easiest and many terrans play PvT, protoss players on the contrary almost never play TvP.
The new maps design to be balanced at progamers level. But if map is balanced for A+ players it will be really bad for D+. The good example is python, there was so many whinings about how it is unbalanced in TvP but TLPD statistics shows that it is terran favoured map!!! So protoss are stronger at lower levels but only because everyone use pro maps and these maps are supposed to be balanced only for pro players.

Sometimes practical experience can give you a better clue than a long elaboration (that I wouldn't know how to make on this subject properly btw.)

So, just try reaching C- with all 3 races, then come back here. And I challenge anyone to do this.
Reach C- with all races and then say which was the least trouble.

Ok fair enough, I'm just sick of people who make the blanket statement "protoss is the easiest race" without defining what they mean by easy. And somehow a terran or zerg of the same rank as a protoss is "a better player" because they don't play toss. Again you can make a case for it, but simply saying "better" is vague and annoying.
No I'm never serious.

I don't think that's a good experiment. I think the order that you learn the races matters. It's easier to go from switch from terran to protoss or vice versa because of similar mechanics. Also, I think it's easier to go from zerg to any of the other races, but that's only from personal experience. In addition, once you get to C- in any of the races, you already have the basics APM, mechanics, and understanding of two of the matchups.

In conclusion, I don't think that learning all three races allows you to say which is the easiest to play or to get good with.

Terran's fucking easy because all you have to do is build siege tanks + 2343454 turrets + lay mines and wait until Protoss gets so pissed off he runs his maxed army into you and dies then you move out.

I think eVaDe was the god of terran, nobody realizes it tho.

your so dam stupid. Protoss CANT 1a2a3a. It's just a silly thing people say because some people just cant macro for shit. Also so isn't THAT hard, but that's probably just me. For some reason, I have a hard time reaching M for marine and end up hitting , or n so I am going to assume it's just me that thinks 4so5so6so7so is easy to reach

Yes you can, actually. Sometimes I play PvT and once I get 3 control groups of zeal/goon I just attack move the natural and win 50% of my games against D terrans.

But you have to macro, yeah. Easiest macro of any race.
