Hello TL memers,

Im a Diamond zerg player, and lately i've been playing Vs alot of random players. And im like like 90% of those matches, just because they like to all-in that much... I really like to play a heavy macro style, and preffer Hatch-fist in every matchup, though vs Random i go for a 14/14 mostly..
but still, it's so annoying to play vs random, because you never know what you're up against, and besically starting in a situation where you're behind..

Allways when i talk to random people, they are like "we have to learn 2 play 3 races blablabla"..
But they don't... most of the randoms only learn 1 easy all-in build for each race. And why should he start with an advantage? i mean, he chooses to be random.. So why don't show his race on the loading screen? i mean, he got the thrill on playing random, and you'll start even form the start..

Absolutly no hate to the random players, who really try to learn 3 races, i don't even think they would care about the fact, that their race will be shown in the Loading screen, because they just want to play 3 races, learn, and don't want to win, and don't want to start with an unfair advantage..

like i said, they choose to play 3 races, so why should I have to be in a disadvantage?

plz tell me what you guys think, this might sound like a whine post, but i just want to know, if im the only 1 thinking this way...

90% win ratio sounds really imbalanced. Blizz really needs to buff random.

I think either way is cool, sure it can screw up your build order a bit but not that much.
