WhiteRa is the reason I play Protoss!!!
HDH winner then to become my favorite SC2 player
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

I play Protoss.
Why? I really don't know anymore. I started because they seemed to have the coolest units (Collosi, HT's, DT's etc). But nowadays I don't know :|
Also the pro that influenced me most to play Protoss was probably Tester back in the late beta, shame he's never really maintained that momentum.

I like the definition of Protoss being like it's the mecho type meaning a 200/200 army can beat a Zerg and Terran 200/200 army. Zerg is all about your replenish. The faster you can get a 200/200 army again is how you play zerg to overrun your opponent.

Zerg because I can play it the best with low FPS on my terrible computer. Macro doesn't require looking at the screen Zerg is the easiest to win with when not microing (just an opinion, and obviously I don't mean 0 micro.)

It makes me sad to see so many people say zerg because terran or protoss is easier to win with. Makes me feel like my choice of race, protoss, isn't justified as a player that plays not to win, but for challenges. I don't think this is true, since protoss fits my style way more than any other race. It's too bad it seems imbalanced

Honestly, for the first few weeks after release I was dead set on playing zerg. After all the imba qq I decided to try to learn another race, then another. Finally I've reached a decision that I will play random. It's better in serious games, people can not conjugate a plan until they scout (miniscule change, but, everything matters) as well as an improved comprehension of MU's from the other side of the spectrum.
I put my pants on two legs at a time.

Lol all these Z players are elite-ist trolls. I play terran because they have a lot of variance open to them, and different interpretations of style, I also enjoy the control I get from good map placements.
