I actually find zerg to be the easiest race at the very low levels, just because of how their builds work. I.E. in a ZvT the zerg makes all the moves (disregarding mech, not enough experience with it). While the zerg only has to learn how to execute buildorders, the terran has to learn how to see, react, and execute the proper counter. The zerg can pretty much just pick a build at random. And because of this the terran has to learn alot of different timings, how to defend, when, with what, and where? Good building placement is also ridiculously important. Exposing a science facility to mutalisks can usually mean death right there, which is another thing the zerg doesn't have to bother with. The same concept applies to PvZ, and to some extent PvT where the terran has to strike before Protoss' econ kicks in, or else GG. So at the very lowest of levels, zerg is easier than protoss, protoss is easier than terran. I also think it's easier for a weaker protoss player to beat a stronger terran (strengths in relation to each other), because of the more variations that a toss player has with his builds, which skews the timings. Same thing for weaker zerg against protoss. Thoughts?
