EPTOut of game, it's Zerg as it hardly requires as much theory as the others.
In low levels, it's Protoss as the macro part is not as important.
My thoughts : D
Which race do you consider the "easiest"? - Page 10

Not saying the tactics aren't easy, just saying that a newb is probably going to get farther in the ladder by using a standard bio or gateway push than by doing zerg allins which are weak unless they are pulled off almost perfectly and are comparable to cheese in how hard it is to get back if it fails. that is complete and utter crap. just saying. | ||

One may consider the most potential to be "easy" whereas others just wants strong units overall or less mechanically demanding... One may like more detectors in their race while some don't consider it necessary... | ||

Tactics are what are 'easy or hard', but it's more like 'simple or advanced'. Terran, I think, has the most effective 'simple' strategies i.e. mass marine or the abundance of one-base timings that require the least developed management mechanics to execute. | ||

I agree with the each race has its own difficulties. | ||

Protoss could be the easiest since the most effective strategies in the lower leagues are either 4-gating or some sort of turtling to form a deathball wich needs little to no micro. At higher level it's a bit different, mainly due to blink stalker micro and high templars. On a side note, I miss the old void ray and the very need to charge it... seemed so much more interesting. | ||

Late game Terran is very hard to macro with, the only reason I don't say Zerg is the hardest is because of the late game. Macroing with one hotkey for all your production is really easy, and injecting is more of a routine thing. It's not too hard to pull off after some practice and you don't even have to be very fast to keep your income at a reasonable level. The hardest part about Zerg is knowing when to drone and after some experience, you can overcome that, mechanically it's not very difficult at all. Maybe it's just because I've played Zerg for too long but that's just what I feel. | ||

That's the reason I play toss, because their mechanics and macro style was easier for me. I never could get the hang of zerg mechanics (or terran to a lesser degree) and so I started out with toss. Since then I've improved so much with them that I don't want to switch to either of the other races. I do like zerg a lot, and if I had the skill to play them I might consider switching, but since I'm too much of a noob I'll be sticking with my brotoss. | ||

This is a pointless thread as it is only really relevant for like mid-diamond~ and below, where: Protoss is the easiest, then Terran, and then Zerg. But of course even that relies on the fact that all players are playing a standard game, as all races have some quite potent all-ins. The Issue with this thread is that; most of the terrans and zergs are gonna say; protoss>terran>zerg while most of the protoss, not wanting to think they play the "easier" race, (even though this is only true at a marginal level, at lower levels) are gonna say, terran>protoss>zerg. As for why anyone would think that Zerg is the easiest race I cannot fathom... | ||
