Hello there TL!

I was wondering today if I will change my multiplayer race when HOTS comes out. It's a new game so it will be a new opportunity to start with another race and now that the game is developed, we know better the play style of each race.

So there the poll! Thank You! Discuss in this thread about your decision!

For me, I am considering switching from Protoss to Zerg because i want to learn my macro better and i don't really like the warp mechanic for macroing...!

I'll continue as Random, just because an unstable metagame is all that more fun to try out builds in. Random gets the best openings out of all four choices, just because when HOTS opens, no-one will have any clue as to what is still good, and Random just profits off of that.

First time I've ever sincerely thought of dropping protoss since I was little playing starcraft before broodwar... I have faith in blizzard that they will make it all work out. It just seems to me that the protoss are losing such cool units (despite not being used often) and gaining such lackluster ones. Zerg was pretty interesting to me in the first place and their new units seem pretty sweet. Terran I can't ever play because they hurt my feelings too bad at the start of wings of liberty =)

I love Zerg, I stay Zerg. Would also be kinda weird to switch race when we get the race Expansion.

Need an option for those that will quit SC2.

I will wait untill the beta. With the unit ideas they presented for protoss I will change from protoss to Zerg/Terran for sure.

Flying buildings, transforming mechs. Big cannons, and flamethrowers. Now they showed me a shredder and promist "Big F-ing Mech" come on. Terran FTW! (I will be probably denoted after all T nerfs, I'm in too hight league for my skill anyway ;-) )

Vote that you won't buy HOTS cause this thread is not about WoL anyway.

Staying Protoss, thats what I have been since BW.
Stop whining about imbalance. You're just bad (likely) at the game and I am probably worse. Just have some fun
