i believe thats 1/729 chance the whole point of random is anything may happen, its designed to have equal odds but you could have same race for 8 games i suppose(more chance than most lottery :o) | ||

Since I random virtually every single game, if I want to be zerg or protoss, I have to manually select them at the start of every game. Anyone else notice how random is extremely biased towards terran? Yeah, just like coin-flipping is extremely biased towards Heads. Heads comes up 90% of the time! That's not random! | ||

If you get Heads 3 times in a row, the chances of that happening aren't 1/8, they're still 1/2. | ||
