One probe can build a whole base whereas Terran need one SCV per building and Zerg have to balance larva in drone / lord / units. Taking one probe and doing Pylon Pylon Pylon doesnt take that much time ... true 1sO goes faster but your not spending those 3 larva on units. | ||

Anyone who says protoss is obviously easier and doesn't change to protoss is just stupid or unwilling to admit they suck. | ||

But it's usually terrans who say toss is 1a2a3a anyway. Anyone who says protoss is obviously easier and doesn't change to protoss is just stupid or unwilling to admit they suck. One is largely more accurate than the other. | ||

Well in my mind anything less accurate than my inaccurate and arbitrary definition of accuracy of statements is inaccurate enough to accurately judge as intolerably inaccurate. | ||

I lose 6-10 pylons all the time to a bunch of stacked up mutalisks. Their splash damage once they get +1 weapons is crazy powerful! | ||

Well, its not entirely incorrect, depending on how you interpret it. Protoss is easier at low-level play, but at high levels, when races reach their potential, it balances out. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

Maybe you'll even sway me over to the dark side. 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. | ||

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. | ||

Reach C- with all races and then say which was the least trouble. 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. | ||

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. | ||

I think eVaDe was the god of terran, nobody realizes it tho. Ok thanks for the advice Next time I play TvP I'll gather the 175759050+ mins to make 2343454 turrets, seige tanks and vultures and I'll win Btw if you want to get rid of the 1a2a3a4a5a joke next time include some 8s or 9s in your post | ||
