Protoss is too hard to play

I'm a Zerg player and I tried playing Protoss a little bit but it's just too hard. Playing Zerg is just so much easier, you have a small icon at the bottom right of your screen to tell you how many larva you have available and you have a special hotkey just for it to select larva and make units, you can hotkey creep tumors and you don't have re-hotkey them every time you make a new one, you have really good ground-to-air options for unit composition and you don't have to worry about battle micro much because you can just fungal all their units in place with your tier 1 infestors, I just don't see why I would switch to Protoss, it's too hard to play.

Oh and of course we have units that can move underground at a very rapid pace and attack while burrowed, and teleport up and down cliffs, Protoss only have this weird unit that takes 20 seconds to build and when it does they can spawn units from it one-by-one. Except they can also just make a cheap building and warp units in from anywhere so I don't know why they'd ever use that other thing - I don't even know what it's called.
I may be of thome athithtanthe if there ith a thudden crithith!

There are too many assumptions here which leaves you with little credit. And even if this is a funny post its not worth it.

If this isn't a troll, just so you know you are completely wrong on all levels.

A for effort, but....I spent most of the read going "What the hell is this guy writing?"

this post is pretty hilarious

infestors are not tier one =D

this thread is prolly not long for this website.
there are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who dont.

That was one well thought out post Space Invader. Actually... I had no idea half of those things existed. (Larva counter bottom right, hotkey to select all larva). I'd manually do it all with skill.LOL I DUMb

yeah please take your trolling elsewhere. tbh I can't believe anyone would take the two minutes out of their day to write this garbage. If you don't like the game don't talk about it. And don't make the community look worse by putting it here.

This isn't funny and why are you obviously trolling... You can argue all day which race is harder/better/overpowered...

Im a zerg player and this post hurts, it isnt funny at allm it just some lines of a player whining about other races, if you dont like how zerg is played then switch to protoss and you will see that it isnt that easy at all.
Instead of wasting your time with posts like this (that i think arent welcome in this website as far as i have been visiting here) you should be imporving your gameplay or post a replay if you dont have any ideas of why are you losing or what you can do to get better.
Feel the power of the zerg swarm.

*Sniff Sniff*

This is the stench of the recent pseudo-good ladder player thinking he's good because he doesn't play zerg.

"Zerg 2 ezy L2P real race liek terran 1a win pro pro pro" :-D

If it was any more real I'd call you a race baiter ^^

I don't mean to be offensive but you're obviously silver league or something, or at least should be.
Everybody will be in bronze soon, because Tasteless will have all our ladder points.
