So just wondering why and how did every one go about picking your race in Starcraft 2? So like was it because they look cool, they have a play style you like or just because they are the same race you played in SC1 and so on.

Thanks

Because I like pain.

But seriously, i've always been a fan of toss, although I played terran in broodwar. New game, time to mix things up.

terran seemed to most straightforward, when i 1st played I got really distracted by the whole "3D look" so i didn't want to deal w/ larva, or pylons, and warping crap instead of just making them in ur production buildings.

(even tho I was zerg in BW, terran just felt the least convoluted)

Protoss is easy. Playing terran would be quite a challenge for me, and I don't think I can even get started on Zerg.

I'm terran just cause ghosts are so bad ass. I'm thinking of switching to Protoss though because I'm pretty good with toss, was my race in broodwar, and because warping in with pylons/warp prism can make really good games.

Hopefully there will be a way to race-pick in the ladder.

when SC1 came out I used to have two best friends and we played together all the time (It was 98 so we were like 9 or so) One ended up being a Protoss player one was a Terran player, so obviously I had to fill the trifecta.

As for SC2 well after playing Zerg so exclusively during brood war it just fit like an old glove.

I tried all 3 races when I got access to the beta and I just fell in love with the addon and Orbital Command mechanics of terran. So I'm playing terran so far.
I've also been playing terran in sc1.

I play Terran simply because I think A) Banshees are the coolest unit in the game
and B) Marines with combat shields look so, so awesome.

They are simply the coolest to me. Zerg looks mushy and all the same, and Protoss just seems to operate in a huge blob all the time.

Does Random count as a race? lol

I don't want to pick a race yet until there's a race I'm clearly better with. I seem to be going towards Terran but I can't tell if that's just because Marauders were so good (I've only played Terran once in patch 8).

I always play terran for my first few months in an SC game... did it for sc1 doing it for sc2... playing random in 2v2 to expose myself to the other races though. After a few months I can decide which race I like the most.

I'm a Zerg player, and always have been since I first started playing.

The reasons why had a lot to do with my brother playing protoss, since zerg were basically the opposite of them (Protoss were Quality > Quantity when Zerg were Quantity > Quality). I liked the whole swarm mechanic, and I also loved the hydralisk/lurkers.

Not to mention the Zerg campaign was baller.

i was playing toss but i noticed that at the time every game i was in there was a toss, 1v1 or 2v2 so i decided to zerg as i dont think i can deal with all the addons now for terran. Right now i am actually trying to learn terran but to no avail and right now i barely see toss... >.>

Zerg resembles Undead most (at least in my mind) so..it was natural to start in SC2 with Zerg.

Same race as BW, zerg for life !

Why i like Zerg ? Because they are fast, u get shitload of units and can reveal the entire map with overlords. And also because they look scary and disgusting.

I was big on protoss in SC1 but the Terrans look so damn cool in SC2.

And I can't get enough of the flying buildings and swapping addons. It's such a great mechanic!

Edit: I love flying a CC to a remote expansion at the beginning of the game :D

Zerg for simultaneous production. In a recent game, I popped 25 roaches out at the same time off of 3 hatcheries with some queen help after losing my main.

Simultaneous production = win

Same reason I chose Z in BW

Zerg is actually my favorite race because I think the whole idea of their history and is biology really interesting. But I'm naturally good at protoss so I decided to build on my strengths. Also I love the idea of quality over quantity

I played zerg in SC1 but I was a wee lad back then.

Reading about SC2 and in the first couple weeks without a beta key, I was sure as shit going to be playing Terran. Marauders looked awesome, ghosts and nukes were so cool. Siege tanks have always been really interesting. Once I saw the reaper, I was completely sold. The possibilities of the things you could do with terran were mind boggling. The bio + medivac army works so well together, and gives you the possibility of drops (4-8 stimmed maurauders DESTROY your main in seconds).

I think I'm still best as terran, but I don't quite enjoy them as much as I had at first hoped. In a interesting twist of irony, terran became repetitive so I started learning SC2 zerg.

Zerg helps me make up for some of my weaker points. I let money pile up while I micro my army and then suddenly I'm sitting on 2k/2k. That's okay as zerg because 10 seconds later I've spent it all and a new army is born.

I also feel like zerg pushes me to improve. I scout a lot better with zerg because I don't feel like a few lings is a waste the way a marine might be. I love a mobile army and I love how fast the units move.

I've never played protoss beyond the sc1 campaign and have never been interested in the "summon building" mechanic (SC and WC3). I do think zealots and dark templars are hella cool. But that's about it. I sometimes toy with the idea of learning toss to be able to play random but I'm not attracted to their "oomph".
I am not nice.

I played zerg at the start because I liked it more for 2v2, and protoss seemed weak at the time (pre-stalker buff), but last patch with the marauder imbalance and thors/turrets buffed making mutas useless, I switched to P because PvT is at least somewhat winnable.

I have really bad mechanics, which is among the reasons I played toss in BW, I thought toss in sc2 would be the least mechanically demanding too, but since theres unlimited selection, I've found terran much easier on the hands, and requires less precise micromanagement (which is a plus because my hands are not just slow but twitchy) so I switched to that. I played random -> protoss -> terran, didnt consider zerg because it was both broken and not fun to play

I haven't totally commited yet but so far zerg feel the best for my style.
Unfortunately they also feel the most boring/incomplete.

Heres to seeing how it goes!

To answer the op, I go off my win rate with each race

Terran because I used to love playing them in SC1 but couldn't handle the insane amount of macro when I tried to play them on a competitive level, but with SC2 the macro is a lot more simplified and I can grasp it all.

Same goes with stuff like idle SCVs in SC1 - the new button in SC2 is a godsend.

haven't decided yet.. everything looks cool in my perspective.. btw, if I was to choose it would be still be protoss I think..
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Snowglobes got my attention, and rightly so! For the forcefields and stuff. I can't play Zerg in SC2 for anything and Terran was my main in SC2, but so many of my friends played terran, not protoss... So I switched!

The Zerg was not really appealing to me. They were aliens, very (not to offend anyone) grotesque, and strange. Plus, they are the most difficult race to master.

The Protoss would have been a much better choice. They are the advanced civilization, they have (I admit) the coolest and most high-tech animations of all three races, and they are also the easiest race to master. But, they still did not work for me. I do not like going too easy. I like a little challenge.

The Terran is my home race. I use it almost always. They are humans, like us. Mercenaries, but still human. They are incredibly mobile, as they have dropships (now medivacs), versatile infantry choices, and the ability to change the course of battle anywhere anytime. Although people believe the Terran's tendency to "turtle" is a disadvantage, I see it as great strategy. I like defensive gameplay, as it allows more macro as well as longer games. But, should the game become to get too long, I can always (as the Terrans are best known for) make a timing push against my opponent.

Then again, maybe it's just because of the nuke. It's the best ability in the history of Starcraft no doubt about that!

I was Terran in SC1.

But I just fail so much with Terran in SC2 ;P
Then I tried to random one time and decided to myself, "This race will be my new race." I got Zerg XD

Played Protoss in BW. Didn't feel like sticking with them for fairly dumb reasons. I didn't like E functioning as the probe and pylon hotkey and I didn't like the split from the dragoon into the stalker and immortal.

Started out with Terran. Liked their new harass options and the fact that an MMM ball was now possible for someone with poor marine micro to use. Found I didn't like their mule/scan mechanic and MBS was actually hindering me more than helping me.

Went zerg and haven't looked back. I am a bit disappointed that their harass options have been scaled back, but i like inject larvae, creep spawning, the ability to quickly tech switch and to control a 200/200 army on one hotkey. And the new, more fluid motions of large groups of zerglings or banelings are just so cool looking.

I am stuck between zerg and protoss as a main. I am uncertain of any solid builds yet, but I am sure once I figure out more about the game I will know what race I want to keep playing with closer to the release date. in the beta stage it is too early to tell my main

I said to myself when SC2 was announced i would be terran. I loved the idea of reapers.

Right now i stay because of how manly the units are and sound (marauder/thor) and Reapers.

Played SC and heard this:

"Awaken my child, and embrace the glory that is your birthright. Know that I am the Overmind; the eternal will of the Swarm, and that you have been created to serve me."

No other race could replace Zerg in my heart after that.

Well I love rooting for the underdog and after the first few battle reports it looked as though Zerg was it. Looking back it was more likely just that David Kim never used them lol.

After that I started watching streams (before I had a beta key) and often watched a guy named Wr3k (in game name Cynic I believe). He was so fun to watch that I really started to quickly understand Zerg much more than any other race. Once I received my beta key it just felt natural and more comfortable playing Zerg. Haven't looked back since.

I chose random because it takes a combination of all 3 races to handle the skill I bring to the table. How about you?
Wishing you well.

Because they look the most aesthetically pleasing even on the lowest settings. I seriously hate the overall look of the zerg base and have kind of dislike for some of the terran buildings.
now how about that?

I hate Toss and how they have one small army that they run around with everywhere.
I hate the slowness of terran mech(tanks thors and marauders)
And I love map control and speed, so I went with Zerg

I used to play Zerg in SC1, but then switched to Terran in the past six months or so.. first just to offrace and mess around, but then I decided that I felt a LOT more comfortable with it.. so I stayed with it for SC2 and I mostly play Terran in SC2 so far just because I don't know how to play toss or zerg well :p

when SC1 came out I used to have two best friends and we played together all the time (It was 98 so we were like 9 or so) One ended up being a Protoss player one was a Terran player, so obviously I had to fill the trifecta.

As for SC2 well after playing Zerg so exclusively during brood war it just fit like an old glove.

Played zerg in BW. In SC2 zerg was about the same except much easier to macro and much less micro. Aside from some build orders and very basic stuff there was really nothing new for me to learn so i figured I might as well practice something else during the beta and I can always come back to zerg whenever I feel like it. Protoss was not an option (hate em, sc1 noob race) and Terran seemed more fun anyways with a large variety of units that I wanted to try out so I stuck with it.

Zerg is boring and Terran is too cool and I felt that anyone who does not play Terran must be dumb! But I didn't want to be the same race as everyone else so I chose Protoss

I chose Terran because I like the ability to scan. If I want to see something on the map, then I see it. If Zerg had simple recon like that, I would have picked them.

protoss because I find it the most interesting mirror. ZvZ is too aggresive for my liking and TvT games tend to go too long, PvP is nice in the middle though the viable strategies in it are somewhat limited.

Protoss or terran also seemed easiest to me to pick up after coming from several other RTS games, I hadn't played sc1 in a long time so zerg is more difficult to start with.Zerg's larvae macro is just so different from other RTS whereas terran and toss aren't. Zerg unfortunately also feels the most repetetive with a limited number of units early on. Terran and protoss have more/better support units that make them more interesting to me.

the first streams of Sc2 i watched back in feb was Lumi/PsyonicReaver/LzGamer and they all used Terran and i liked how it worked well so i adopted it as the race of choice and it seems very enjoyable.

Played Zerg in BW and I love the new macro functions for Zerg. It just sucks that all you can do with it is mass Roach, Ling, Muta or Hydra and A-move. Sure you sometimes get the chance do do some fancy roachbomb or FG+Bling but compared to T and P Zerg is just mass and A-move. Didn't work? Well mass some more and A-move again.

Every day I think about switching to Toss but I love Zerg and I really hope that we will get something that makes our play more fun and diversed instead of the extreme streamlined choices we have today.
wait wut?

Terran!

Because it's the most complicated race. Units depend on each other moreso than in other 2 races. Unlike Protoss and Zerg which seem like hordes of evil, Terran was always reminiscent of stuff like Power Rangers, where parts combine to create something great.

Also, building shit with these new addons is weird as fuck, but rewarding - another great plus for my masohistic, do-things-hard-way personality.

I was a random player and I decided to learn specific builds for my worst race zerg. They became my best race, so I play them. I'm really edging towards playing random again though, but I'm shuddering at learning 6 more matchups.

Because I am a human and I fell strong connection with my human race, I see no other choice than one which is certain.

I started with random and realized that I hated the macro-mechanics of Toss and Terran, I was always missing mules (and couldn't get the hang of tab-buidling with reactor/tech lab) and chrono boosts (and forgetting to warp in units AS SOON as the warp gates were ready). I was remembering to use infuse larva with Zerg most of the time, so I stayed with them.

It kind of sucks becase I was a Toss player in SC1, but the new macro mechanics take too much APM for me. I prefer to micro my army, not play sim-city and and attack-move my army. With zerg I can do both.

Played Protoss in SC1, playing protoss in SC2. I really like the terran, but I've never been a fan of bio play, and with the lack of viable mech builds earlier in the beta I kept playing protoss. I enjoy zerg, but I suck at managing larvae :/

Terran because tanks firing are so good looking, banshees are fucking nice and OC/PF are just awesome. Also I didnt like the way zealots attack and move, and I think chrono boost is just huur duuhr, but would love to play with collosus in my army.

was protoss in SC:BW, and always will be toss in BW!

Well we are 3 mates and in BW 2 of us played Z and one P, so it was time for a switch ;-)
Since the SC2 T fits my playstile quite more then the turtle terra from sc1 i feel quite comfortable with terra now.

Anyway, I want my early Grunt/Dryads back

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.

I find PvP to be the least boring of the 3 mirrors.

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

Random. Because I won't settle for just 33%.

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

I picked the race depending on which mirror matches is the least boring and what units I like the most. Ended up being Zerg. Would of been Terran, but tvt is just a lot of mehhh.

Maybe I'm the only one, but I play zerg because of their in game backstory. I've always been a biology nut in real life, so it makes sense that I would love zerg.
Only good can come of this!
