Because the banshee and the reaper are my two new favorite units (and my two most frequently used units ) Terran. And when I tried to make a probe in my first game as protoss and an overlord in my game of zerg, i raged because they were E and V.

I don't mind toss anymore now though But I'm not good enough to macro Z correctly.

I loved the Terran music and aesthetic in Starcraft 1/BW: I LOVE power armor and basically just fell in love with marines and firebats. 2 was kind of just the logical extension of this but I love the new emphasis on power-armored bio as well.

Plus, tanks are sexy.

Is Protoss still considered the "easy race" in SC2?

I play random and want to keep it that way. I have been considering for some time though switching to a race for a few weeks, then to the next, and so on until I get really good with all of them.
Then my random game will be that much better.
So far I do have to say that Terran is my favorite race to play and I seem to do best with them. They were also my favorite in BW(played random in that too)
I was somewhere, thinking something...

I always was inspired by sAviOr as he was the guy in charge when I started following the proscene. However the race I felt most comfortable with was protoss and I was really good with terran micromanagement. After alot of consideration I finally settled down with zerg, because I wanted a real challenge but also, partially from sAviOr ofc, because zerg when played well looked so amazing and cool. I still feel in my heart after reaching B with zerg that if I spent more time on protoss I could probably have reached higher. Having that said I don't regret a thing. Zerg's baller.

LOL fuck I owned myself... this is sc2 thread...

...and i dont even have beta..

fuck me dry

I played random for the first 2 weeks of beta and started to really like Warpgate so I decided to start playing Protoss exclusively. I almost chose Zerg just for the fact that I love the ZvZ match up and that I also hate going up against mutalisks as Toss.

It's all in flexibility (of tech) for me. Also, Zerg macro is soo fun.

I play Terran because I have a sense of duty with the human race.

instead of doing charity, I decided to play terran

Protoss because I'm a masochist and like playing the hardest race. Martyr complex I know.
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.

Zerg becouse of the manovuerbilty of their units, speed and numbers rather then brute force + their aliens and have awesome animations.
War is a hole that will drag anyone close enough in it.

well, i play T cause i just loved the OC an addon mechanics.
in BW i played Z, and then P, whenever i played T it felt good, but it was too hard i found
SC2 is different, Terran seems to flow nicely compared to Z and just the overall play style fits me better I find.

actually it was like this:
terran is boring
protoss' units are stupid (dragoon, probe - back than my probes used to stop mining for w/e reason)
that was a long time ago, and i didnt have enough time to play, so i sticked to one race, to be somewhat competitive with it, i got to like them, so i'm sticking to them in sc2 as well
