Terran was always my favourite in BW because they were so fun to play. Lots of things going on, lots of stuff to keep track of, nice positional strategies, and very dynamic.

Sadly, in SC2 Terran is the most boring race. Tanks have been nerfed to the point of being laughable unless in huge numbers, Hellions have limited use, etc. etc. to the point where it seems infantry massing is the core of Terran play in all match ups. Boring.

So now I play Zerg - who are in my opinion the "Terran" of SC2. Dynamic, challenging, lots to keep track of.

Terran into random into zerg into random into protoss into zerg

I think SC2 zergs have the funniest and most reactive gameplay of the game. I was terran (+PvT) in BW and strangely I feel the experience of playing zerg in SC2 is really close to BW. It's like a mix of TvP (harass) and PvT (break the push).

P have cool spellcasters but they are way to slow and passive to my liking (and collossi only) and the fact that Terrans lost their vultures took almost 40% out of the fun of playing that race for me.

Zerg, because I never learned to play them properly in BW. And I hate siege tanks.

I always liked the swarm, and if my whole army gets killed I can always remake marines really fast because of reactors.

I play Zerg because the two other races are too easy, more fun with the underdog!

Early on in Starcraft II I considered the same thing for ZvZ, I eventually stuck it out with zerg and after watching IdrA, Ret, and NesTea learned ZvZ, and am much more comfortable with it

I play zerg, because I'm too stupid to switch to a competitive race and too lazy to relearn the competitive game with another race.

Protoss because when the Beta was going and early release they felt much more difficult than the other two races. Then myself and other protoss learned how to forcefield properly and had a guy named oGsMC teach us how the race was meant to be played.... now I spend my time collecting tears on the ladder

I played Protoss in BroodWar, because I Really loved the Zealot. I play them in SC2 because I played them in BW, and have found no reason to switch so far--though I have thought about trying Zerg a few times, because they seem fun.

Because I got used to Terran even though I had intended to pick protoss (my beloved BW race <3), climbed the ladder with them then didn't have anyone to practice the other races with so stuck with it. Thinking about doing 4 months or so with Z, the same with P, then going random full time.

In fact, split decision; I'm switching to zerg tomorrow. I literally decided as I was writing this. I might switch it up a bit though and throw some T in there, because I've grown fond of them.

I honestly I have no idea. Wins are unsatisfying rolls, losses are rage inducing rolls. There's no middle ground.

Zerg for life. I love the Alien series of movies, and the hydras remind me of the aliens there. Something about a race that takes over planets and goops them up with slime and insects / aliens just really fits how I want to play sc2. Plus, I enjoy the macro mechanics of Zerg.
