Example: At extremely low level play people find terran the easiest because they can make mass bunkers and siege tanks and an equal opponent can't penetrate that defense. At a slightly higher level where the players have just gotten an understanding of the importance of building workers constantly and making many units and learning about rushes most players would probably find protoss the easiest because their units are relatively easy to control against people who also has bad control. Basically attackmoved protoss units wins vs attackmoved units of another race. At about D ICCup level one could argue that zerg can be easy to win with since at that level you can han bang your way through most opponents and thus you don't have to learn the art of lategame or harassment builds. Sure I could 10/15 my way up to C- in PvT on medusa easily but I also managed to do that with all in zerg builds last season and earlier this season I could farm TvZ wins with mech builds on Destination because 90% or D+ players don't even know the vulture rush is coming. All that matters balance wise is what level you are currently on and what level your opponent is on and the scope is so wide that saying there is a universally easiest race is just about the stupidest thing you could say. | ||

If the question was "Which race is harder to play at D level ICCup" or "Which race is the hardest to play on public LT games on Bnet" it might have had an answer.

I agree! Unless you imply that Protoss is not the easiest race. :/ | ||

The units are relatively strong and mobile so you arent punished as bad for being out of position or caught off guard because you can run away. Toss can harass OR play passively pretty easily. The micro is very simple. Zerg is fragile and theres always the drone management. Terran is hard to use effectively, the multi task and annoying pathing with slowish units can cause some stupid errors, not to mention if caught out of position the terran army is REALLY shitty. Toss also has really good build orders nowadays. You can get big leads that are very difficult to overcome for lower tiered terran and zergs. i disagree. terran has the largest room for error because even if they fuck up and lose, for example, a group of mm to lurkers, they still always have the 'han bahng' (one hit), ie. they can hold up and amass one last blob to push out and either end it or lose. and at lower lvls, toss is proly easier but at higher lvls toss requires quite a bit of micro if you wanna be really good. if you look at the 6 dragons they all have really good micro with the exception of best who makes up for it with insane macro ;o but at lower lvls also, pvz is still ridiculously hard so it kinda makes up for it >> | ||

There is no easy race. Some may be slightly easier than others are different levels but this entire game is VERY hard to play well. | ||
