It's cause the terrans don't admit to playing terran for fear of being seen as having no self respect.

EDIT: Zerg in 1's, Zerg/Protoss in 2's and customs

Random all the way baby. No one can accuse me of having no self respect. I love the game so much I'm determined to suck with all 3 races.

75% of games I play are against zergs now. The current poll isn't surprising me.

I played Zerg up until the patch. However, with the most recent balance patch, I disapproved of the changes and thus have since switched to Terran.

Did people switch? Or did more zerg players migrate to Teamliquid, or did people see Fruitdealer's awesome GSL and switch, or did 1.1.2 give zergs such a buff that people moved en-masse to zerg? We may never know.

Also, I wonder if all these new zerg players is the cause of me finally learning ZvZ, or just good timing by me :D

That is some serious underdog mentality. Damn.

I've been playing Zerg since release but I'm thinking of switching to Protoss. I like the macro style of Zerg but it's pretty damm difficult to figure out what exactly I'm doing wrong at times.

Not really surprising, tonnes of people switched after the Zerg buffs. I'm assuming a goodly number of those were Terran players, which would account for the lack of Terran as well as the abundance of Zerg.

I'm getting sick of playing ZvZ on ladder. Most of the time I just go 8pool, then roaches, then quit after 6 minutes. It's not fun when you play 5 straight vZ, man. It's getting boring fast.

Now I dont know how to interprete this poll compared to analytic sites like sc2ranks etc... who state that zerg is played least... I mean of course these sites track all players but i hardly doubt the TL community is so much different from the international trend. seems very strange to me xD. I suspect a lot of people are fascinated by zerg cuz of the way they work, and what a challenge it is to play them (Im playing Zerg myself). But I dont think this poll is very honest

although i really have to admit there are a LOT of zvzs I play and I dont find it funny -.-

but i didnt know NA servers had the same issue as EU

I am currently playing Terran, but I will very likely switch to P or Z after the first ladder reset. And once again after the second to the remaining race. And finally to random... at least that's the long term plan...

I think many players who started out with one race will try another race as their main one sooner or later. Having so many Zergs in the poll makes sense, since Zerg is hyped a lot since Fruitdealer winning the GSL. If I would switch now, I probably would also try Zerg.

Funny thing is that a lot of people play zerg who was T/P before so ZvZ became easier now.
