Hi guys,

We have our own reasons why we choose this specific race and trying to master it.
The reason I chose Zerg is because:

1) Every units spawns from the same hatchery hence you just need 1 building to spawn units in all hatch.
2) Can stockpile larvae and spawns multiple units spontaneously.
3) You don't need to control a worker to do a supply depot. Just spawn an overlord.
4) Your supply depot (overlord) can be used as a scout.
5) Infinite numbers of overlord can be spawned.
6) Overlord can be used as transports, hence you don't need to sacrifice your food unlike other races.

Cons:

1) The lack of walling-off makes it easy for other races to do early harass.
2) The lack of larvae on the early game makes it tricky either to use larva for drones or army.
3) The benefits of overlord can backfire you if opponent goes for overlord hunting.

What about you guys?

lol, i tot somebody wanna do racing early in the morning,.... I prefer terran, because it is a good balance btwn speed (zerg rules in speed) and late stage superiority (protoss rules when everything is upgraded)

Toss for me,

why?

the Pros :

1) cool units and portraits
2) FF is very nice for blocking early waves if i going to turtle or blocking the main enemy rams while attacking their expos.
3) Pheonixes are good in harassing and scouting.
4) Probes just warp it in buildings and go continue its own business lol.
5) Multirole stalkers. it can blink ! now u see me, now u dont ! can attk air too.
6) fast reinforcement by using warp.
7) HT and colosai what else against masses especially lings,marine
8) mid game and end game is good.

Cons :...

1) early game kinda vulnerable , but is manageable, but not in 3v3 4v4 and u get gang banged ==!
2) marauders....counter like almost every gateway units
3) ghost's EMP, i hate it when my immortals get EMP-ed
4) unit cost and research
5) zealots are kinda pity when dealing with ranged units especially during early game vs terran

terran,

pro & cons when i was a noob cuz it was the determining factor for me to choose race
pro
f*** yeah, 3 rax counter everyshit in 10 min mark
mules = imba
proxy reaper
2 thor rush
cloak banshee
terran always win

con
nah, b4 patch, terran could do anything and still win the game. TLO can nuke like hell in game to entertain fans yet still use MMM to win the game indirectly ROFL.


well now....
pro
terran is very versatile and can counter attack very fast with the add on feature
enemy doesnt know your strategy all the time as add ons can change the tide.
very defensive and reaction based race if you play it right lol....PF turrents sige tanks to defend and react accordingly.
i like this kind of D and counter attack style of play.

cons,
not really....i like terran, im not QQ-ing

WELL, WHATS MORE FOR TERRAN TO QQ????

I like Terran due to broodwar history....

During broodwar time, Nobody play Terran. Everyone is a Protoss or Zerg bcos it is admitted Terran is the weakest race among three (of course Flash is still studying primary school and nobody in msia got the boxer's micro)...
So I want to be different and play Terran instead. So with bias, I continued my race to sc2

Terran

Buildings lift off can expand to islands and base with destrorock
Buildings are super flexible, lift off n add ons n no power needed
Battlecruisers thick armor own
Banshees are annoying n strong
Ghost can drop a holy nuke
Reapers are damn annoying at early stage
MULEs can be cast non stop if 4 orbitcmd are built
Reactors lower the cost
Initial food is 11
Radar can be a fear factor to enemy
Medivacs help all races
SCVs repair terran n protoss mech units
SCVs repair mothership strat owns

Cons:
Really ?

That's because he is such a crybaby. He rages everything about Terran. For him when he wins it's skill, when he loses it's Terran OP.
