I played enough terran so that my MMR is way lower then my main (zerg), and now I can see improvement as well (got a few leagues higher with terran now).
It placed me with protoss in the same league as my main, but I won more than half of the games, so I guess it had no choice.
The question is were my opponents offracing as well, or were these wins just the same as my Zerg and Terran wins,

I like the new MMR per race system, I can improve each race. I was using the unranked MMR to offrace with protoss , but it didn't allow me offracing with terran, so now I can do that as well. And what considers the MMR, then its just about playing enough games (no matter if it starts from scratch or as my main one).
The system doesn't really know which race is my main one, so starting from scratch for offrace means starting from scratch for my main race as well.

I am pleased

Where did you get placed with your main and where did you get placed with terran? ...and where are you now with terran?

I have the same headache I suppose. My terran is terrible, surely bronze, and I fear I will have to play placement matches vs plats, since that is what I just did with my zerg...

With my main I'm Diamond 2, I was placed first as Diamond 3 but now I'm back to Diamond 2.

With Terran it put me on Plat 2 even though I lost all 5 placement matches (I expected to get worse opponents with my 4th and 5th placement matches), I continued losing completing an 8 lose streak, and then things got even (have gold MMR meanwhile, after reaching Silver 1). I tried some weird stuff as well and re-adjusting to the gold league mind set took a few games, but pure macro wins hard there. I guess I'll get Plat MMR by the end of the season, as I quite already adjusted to the terran macro, so it isn't that hard anymore.
