I see no flaws with this plan.

i dunno about a starleague but i would be 'better' (able to win more) than i am now as terran

So what you're saying is that before each game you sit there and think "yeah, I'll handicap myself, winning games is for losers" and then pick Terran? And then you blame Protoss players for not doing the same? How does that work?
Surely then, by picking Terran you're getting it wrong and by the same token they're getting it right with Protoss. Complaining to people that they keep outsmarting you on the race selection option is almost as silly as maintaining that you were too good to beat an awful build. It's hardly their fault.

If you're after a handicap couldn't you just play Protoss and kill one of your starting probes or not use dragoons or something?

what im saying is if id had almost a year of practice in a pro team with protoss thatd be the case, obviously my terran is currently better than my protoss. they wouldnt allow a race switch. before i came to korea i did indeed switch over to pvt a month or 2 before wcg usa. was 1 game from getting out of an all terran group in wcg usa on 2 months of practice. definitely a tough race to play.

Care to explain why Terrans have historically always done far better than Protoss players? Are all Terran's just naturally gifted far beyond the abilities of any Protoss player? If so, do the more gifted individuals somehow all choose Terran in order to give the appearance of balance or does the act of choosing Terran somehow make them superhuman?

obviously its because certain players happened to choose terran

protoss raped everything for like 2 seasons after bisu showed all the other retards that the 3 best harass units in the game and the fastest transport in the game make a pretty fuckin good combo.

terran has not historically done well. nada oov and boxer have historically done well.

You are aware that nada, oov and boxer are terran players, right? That their success is a terran success.
Equally I could say that zerg have always been the weakest race, excluding JD, sAviOr and July. Or Protoss excluding Bisu, Stork, rA and Reach.

Not sure it works like that. You can't pick and choose which successes count and which don't.

With that said, Terran did run into fewer strong challenges in the past (Boxer, Nada, oov, theMarine, Xellos just to name a few in top of my head) (Pre-savior era), hence the Terran domination in respect to history, That's why Protoss players (Kingdom, NalRa, Reach, etc.) became heroes, because amidst of such top-calibur terran players, they took OSL golds.

well that was my point. its the players who made the success, not the race. how did zerg and protoss overcome the terrans? with brilliant players like savior and bisu showing everyone else how play properly. how did terran get started out in the first place? with oov boxer and nada showing everyone how to play.

but either way its invalid to use terran's past success to judge current game balance. either individual players were responsible for the success or it was the fact that the game itself was not very well understood.

and what changed the way the game is played?..... the revolutionary players. the games were played the way they were because of boxer and nada and oov, and because their z/p equivalents lagged behind. terran has changed, sure, but flash is doing stuff oov was doing years ago, just a bit better and more refined. protoss, and especially zerg, on the other hand, have undergone massive overhauls
(mechanic tvz aside, although that was mostly oov's doing)

sorry to burst your bubble, but 5'10, 5'11 is too short to be a male model, whoever is telling you that you can be a model is playing you for a fool rofl.

unless you consider working for no-names and not having any exposure as modeling, in which case you are just lying to yourself.
