Ballsy move, props.

At the worst it will make your Terran better since you will understand Zerg better. Potentially this could be great for the game because imo it will put you in a position to give Blizzard some great feedback on Zerg and Terran.

This is really cool, and it shows you have the will of a top player, but i'm afraid this will reduce your training as terran and cost you in the long run.

1 terran less, thats good. but ZvZ sucks so hard, if i see more and more ppl playing Zerg, then i will switch to Protoss, because im happy that so few ppl play Zerg, then there is a very low chance to play ZvZ at all, and thats good. Because ZvZ is the worst matchup in the game by far... Imagine every 2-3 Games you have to do ZvZ :o oh my...

But grats on choosing the right way, and a Zerg Buff is coming soon, we all know it.

Well I feel ZvZ is what u make it.

If u train enough and get the right maps u can really get pretty crazy games out.

@Morrow
Go. Show us some Zergplay worth watching

Just watched a couple of your longer games from the day 3 replay pack and I absolutely love your sense of creep spreading!

Still looks like there's a long way to go but I'm rooting for you to get there!

Won't comment on the things you need to improve, I'm pretty sure you're way much better at figuring that out than I am ^.^

Don't even give up! If I had just a decent APM (and control thereof) I'd go Zerg but at the moment I'm sticking with terran/toss.

SWARM FIGHTING!

Given the number of threads we've seen where people admit they're scared to ladder, it takes a lot of guts for someone who is well known to be willing to so publicly lose so many games as a learning experience.

why would he care about his ladder ranking? he can always switch back to terran and get back to the same point anyways. he has nothing to lose. Hes so well known that when people see his losses as zerg they will know hes learning zerg, not OMG morrow just went from pro to shit in 3 weeks!

how can you be so misguided? ;\

I'm saying that there are people who are basically anonymous saying "Oh I don't like to ladder, because I'm scared of losing" when nobody is ever going to care whether they win or lose a game. Obviously that's not MorroW's situation, the fact that hundreds of people have posted in this and the other thread attests to the fact people do care.

Obviously he can go back to Terran and regain the rank, that's not the point, the point is that losing is something a lot of people find hard to do, and losing in public is something that most of us find a heck of a lot harder still, so props to him for being willing to do it.

A lot of new sc2 players doesn't see the ladder the same as us and our sc1 bnet ladder and the likes.
We all know that laddering is a very good way to improve our style but most of the new players may be afraid to play cauz they care a lot about their stats.
Afterall there's no way to smurf anymore, so yeah...

curse you for taking the short form of my name XD

and yeah agrees cuz I'm pretty scarred to ladder myself alot fo the times.
sometime si'll have momentum and win like 5 straight and then it will be followed by a losing streak fo 5 and i just never move anywhere and im always afraid my losing will outdo my winning and i really want to maintain at least a 50% win rate in diamond to be happy with myself.

It's impossible to NOT have a huge amount of respect for a top player switching to the (perceived) weakest race and posting all his replay packs as he plummets in the ladder trying to figure it out. In the end, if he sticks with it, he'll probably become a much better player, and we'll all learn alot more about balance.

Just want to emphasize, I actually love watching a whole bunch of games from the same player to learn how the decisions branch based on the strategies. I'll be watching the replay packs with quite a bit of interest.
