the correlation between sc2 and your personality is how you approach the game, not which race you choose. and by approaching the game I dont just mean the way you play (cheese, macro oriented, micro oriented etc), but also how fast you learn and adapt, how do you take loses, how do you handle stress, etc.

You hate Terrans, you live by the phylosophy of "Hitting something with a stick hundreds of times will kill a guy anyway so why use bullets", You like to be beat and slapped in the early game only to throw a ragefit and throw all your hatred at the 'civilized' societies that attacked you first in the first place. You watch the worldcup and hear the annoying buzz of the swarmlike horns and think to yourself "Serves you right OP terrans >=(". Then you play Zerg.

You hate Protoss because they can warp in their units close to the battle. You're the kind of guy that loves big guns and fields of death caused by your explosive ridden attacks. If you play rock,paper,scizzors you wish you could pick explosion to just get it over with and win the game. You're firmly convinced that even if you have 10 marauders and easily deal with fully upgraded ultralisks, you're not overpowered in any way whatsoever. Then you play Terran.

You're kinda ok with everyone. You take it easy and keep a heads up for everything that happens around you. Though you're the kinda guy that would go to a toddlers playground and beat down 5 of them just so you can prove that 1-attack zealots are far superior to the masses of zerglings. You suffer the same curse as Flash, without pylon power or shields, you're no big deal to play against. You can't give feedback to your colleagues because in some way or another, you will offend or even hurt them. You don't like your Mother and even if you were lying on your deathbed you wouldn't summon her with your Nexus One phone. Then you play Protoss.

I play zerg, guess which race I like or hate.

Don't listen to these people. Don't think about which race to play is "the most fun" but instead think about "which mirror match is the least daunting" for you to play.

ZvZ is just baneling/speedling spam into mutas.
PvP is warpgate galore into robo (lol, like there is an alternative xD)
TVT is viking>banshee>tank>marine>viking or just straight up viking/tank.

Think carefully which one of these matchups doesn't drive you crazy. I chose zerg because PvP is a snoozefest and TvT makes me think about committing suicide everytime I play it.

I was thinking about this the other day and wound up just getting sad. The races don't have a lot of personality to them.

Zerg kind of has a build a lot of weak crap and hope you can surprise them with burrow if they're competent. Go them if you don't like having very many options and you want to have to force the issue to win.

Terran has a I can harass, macro, micro, spellcast, defend, and be aggressive better than the other races feel. Go them if you plan on playing competitively.

Protoss has the most personality of the three. Play them if you like being creative and using a little bit of everything.

[B]Protoss macro was easier in SC1 but that's not true in SC2, since you actually have to go to the pylon and click for each unit you warp in, while terran and zerg can produce from hotkeyed buildings while controlling their units


errr.. protoss have a specific key JUST for warp gates. You dont even have to remember to hotkey them yourself ... lol

I laughed..!

In all seriousness, i do believe the personality and race-theory.

I used to play zerg, and I'm the person who is hoping the humans (terrans!) in Avatar would kill the shit out of those hippie-blue-people.

I have this weird want to "root for the home team" and play Terran but I've become pretty comfortable with Zerg so I'm kinda split. Toss are cool, but my strat with them is currently LOL VR RUSH so I can't really claim any competence with that race.

The only way to discover your 'true race' is to embark on a journey of spiritual discovery.

The first step is to take a 40 ft ethernet cable. Cut off the ends and remove the plastic shielding so you can pull out the copper wires inside. You will see 8 different wires, some twisted together, others not. Pull the wires out and untangle them so you have 8 long pieces of wire and braid them together into one, stronger, more spiritual piece of 'spirit rope'. Use this rope to bind together your keyboard and mouse into a 'spirit bundle' and take this 'spirit bundle' with you out into the wilderness.

Selecting the location of your spiritual journey is an important step. You need at least a square km of open space to bask in, preferably a meadow but a sunny park will do, and this open space should be near a wooded grove where you can meditate. I suggest using google maps to discover a suitable location near your house so you can get a ride there and get picked up later without a big hassle. Once you have a location you can start your fast.

You should fast for 2 or 3 days, depending on how naturally spiritual you are (you can use online quizzes like this one: http://tinyurl.com/p963jq) to find out, if you score particularly well you can get away with only 2 days but if not I'd recommend 3 otherwise it might be a waste of time. You will know if you only need two! You're going to want to detoxify your body so that you can absorb your spiritual journey so something like a juice fast will work well (see this guide: http://tinyurl.com/33cz4sx for an example).

On the day of your journey, walk out into the meadow and hold your spirit bundle to the sky. It might be helpful if you wear some ceremonial robes to help your mindset. You probably already have this, which will do: http://tinyurl.com/4aqsmv. Hold your bundle to the sky until you feel... a presence. You will know when it is time to proceed to the wooded grove and meditate.

Go into the grove and find a nice place to sit down. Place your spirit bundle in front of you, and unwrap the spirit rope and place the keyboard to your left and the mouse to your right. Drape the spirit rope so it touches the keyboard, passes across your lap, and touches the mouse, then lay your hands on your knees (over the rope) and close your eyes. If you have been doing the fast correctly, you should already be pretty dizzy so you shouldn't have much trouble slipping into a deep trance. Since you are in a safe place and deep in a spiritual trance, you will be able to connect with the 3 races in their purest form. You must remain in this trance long enough until your race 'chooses' you. Eventually, you will be visited by the presence you felt in the field. They will reveal themselves to you in some strange way, perhaps a falling leaf or a rustling wind, but you will receive a spiritual message from either the Protoss, Terran or Zerg letting you know the true path of your destiny.

Once your race has chosen you, you can pack up and head home, text your mom to come pick you up, etc. Hope this helps!

anyone noticed how all the responses are:

Other race: OP
Other Race: For idiots
My race: Totally Fucking Awesome dude!

I would say:
Protoss: Slightly elitist, "my units are more powerful therefore i'm better", also easily impressed by shiny objects.

Zerg: Slightly megalomaniac, "all your map are belong to me", also probably turned on by tentacle anime

Terran:Slightly Pyromaniac, "Duuh i has a boomstick", also probably thinks the other races are for elitist idiots or anime tentacle lovers.
