EPTI do find it interesting that there are more match-up participants than there are people answering what race they play. =P

I'm just wondering why not more Toss players chose Terran, seeing as early stim timings and MMM pushes hit really hard. | ||

They don't hit that hard, if you have a few sentries and a couple upgrades or a collosus or two out even without range you can hold them pretty well. | ||

It's quite rare that both players execute they're plan to the letter and one barely comes out on top. | ||

I did like how the Terran/Protoss both generally feel that Zerg are the hardest race to play. I'm a random player, and I generally agree that I find Zerg the hardest to face, across the board. Then again, statistically my worse match-up is a mirror match-up. Guess that comes with the territory because I try to play all 3 races as opposed to understanding a single race fully. | ||

Guess that comes with the territory because I try to play all 3 races as opposed to understanding a single race fully. I've seen this logic before regarding randoms. Having played 2k games as random, one of my best MUs is PvP, I'm pretty good at ZvZ, and decent at TvT. Why do people claim that mirror MUs should be more difficult for random players? Regarding the polls, I play to get better and I sometimes stress about it. But I only have so much time to play as work, gf, etc. are important to me. I didn't feel that that question covered my approach to the game. | ||

Why do people claim that mirror MUs should be more difficult for random players? I'm random as well. I don't have any problems with mirror matchups - they're usually my strongest (except TvT). However, I have huge problems with playing against Terrans. I find their capabilities to hold positions (siege tanks, turrets, marines) ridiculous. The fact that all Terran units are incredibly cost effective doesn't help my frustration against Terrans. It might be a mental thing, I don't know. | ||

At least against 'Toss and Zerg I feel like I can tell when I'm ahead or behind and can tell exactly why I lost a certain game, etc. Against Terran it's just an uphill battle fighting against a superior economy, superior defense, and hyper effective units. If you voted ZvP or ZvZ as your worst MU, what about ZvT makes you feel more comfortable than either of those two? | ||

Worst Matchup: P v Z League: Diamond APM: Usually 150-200, if I'm spamming lots and concentrating it'll be in 200-250 SC:BW? Yes, but not online (apart from FMP) Hours per Week: Usually 4-8, in the holidays a lot more. Improving: I try but don't stress too much Best Way to Win: Any way is good, but I rage when I get cheesed : ( Ladder of Custom? Custom Goals? I'd like to reach GM but Masters would do. | ||

Poll: What's your main race? 1048 total votes Zerg (361) Protoss (348) Terran (260) Random (79) Poll: For Zergs: What's your hardest match-up? 531 total votes Poll: For Protoss: What's your hardest match-up? 435 total votes Poll: For Terrans: What's your hardest match-up? 359 total votes hmmm. + Show Spoiler + It's OK that you can have an off-race, but I think that voting on other's polls seems kinda wrong, lol. | ||
