Still bronze, but I'm playing against silver players. The two cannon rush where from silver leaguers.

Sad but true! If you're terran, you avoid all cheese... and if you can't avoid it as terran, it's so easy to deny it's not even funny :lolHugoboss21 said:

I only play masters, lol... Protoss cheeses' the most out of the tree races but it's not even nearly as much as bronze-league cheese.Q8D3vil said:

Really, now.... I was hyped up from all the amazing Zerg gameplay.
Envisioned epic Muta/Ling vs Archon/all the Protoss battles.
Intense micro-heavy fights against blobs of marines, and Terran BUNKER RUSHES.
Then what do I get? Fucking ZVZ.
With either 6 pool OR 13/13 bling rush EVERY SINGLE TIME.
And when they fail, they wont even leave. Nooo. They rush to Infestors. That is when it becomes sad.

Zerg macro is the only one I think I'm semi decent at. It got me to gold league play, and I was 2 seasons ago sitting at #1 on my ladder right on the edge of getting int platinum, but I honestly wasn't having fun playing Zerg that much. Before that I was Protoss and I hated PvP, switched to Z only to find ZvZ is just as bad.
When I bought SC2 I just wanted to be Terran, but I simply cannot keep up with their macro. Terran may be the easiest race to WIN with, but as someone new to RTS' I find they are the hardest to play. I hope that makes sense.
I would be fine with going back to P, but so much has changed in that time with their openings for me. T still feels relatively the same as does Z, but I think I'll wait till HotS till I redive in serious style. My 100% laid out goal is when HotS hits to pick one race, stick with it, and reach masters. I'll swear off all other games when it happens and zero in on SC2.
Until then, a stream monsters life for me.

No offence to any Protoss players but I feel like Protoss is the easiest race to win as when you are new to SC2 or RTS in general. Whole mechanics of the race kinda lets to get into them really quickly.
Terran macro can be hard and you have to macro well and with Zerg you need to know timings pretty well and be good at harassing/controlling units and the drone/unit ratio etc.
I'm NOT saying Protoss is ezpz, but just that it's easier to get into. Same was in BW

ESWC is gonna get the IEM treatment last weekend from me, will check it out if there's nothing going on at Blizzcon.
YES!!
I just won an epic 50 minute TvT match. Holy shit. It was fucking nuts. I still can't believe I won it. This guy built up a massive ground army and expanded to 3 or 4 different bases. Mine was pretty big too but I pushed like 30 guys twice. I got destroyed. I realized then I should go air. I started building up invisible planes. All of my bases though, were spread out all around the top of the map. At the very top I had 4 starports building me invisible planes. Every few minutes when I had about 8 or so, I sent them in through the back of his base. I ran across his expansions first, went invisible and just started destroying his supply depots. Wrecking them hard. Then I went for his SCV's. Then he would wise up and send his army after me with the radar finding my invisible planes. When he killed them, I had some more waiting to be built. I kept doing the same thing, destroying supply depots and SCVs. I eventually sent a ground force of basically just marines with upgraded guns across the middle. He did the same thing and we met in the middle. He killed all of my guys and pushed up the front of my main base. I had bunkers and Siege mode tanks setup and I guess I held his shit off. I think he ran away. Anywho, he had Thors, tanks and marines and I had marines and marauders and just a few tanks here and there.
He starts pushing his Thors and marines to my top base and is having a pretty easy time wrecking my expansion. I have about 8 planes built and I go invisible and manage to take down his Thors. His medivac marines take down my planes and start wrecking my starports. At this point, his army is probably 15 guys large. I think because I wrecked his supply depots and SCVs, he had a hard time creating backup. I sent my marines to his, wrecked them easily and then pushed right into this base which was basically defenseless. He calls GG and I fucking won.
So awesome.

Lol the funny part about this post is that i got into diamond as zerg without knowing any of the stuff you mentioned (i've since learnt it but that's a different matter).
If you're talking about newcomers no race really shines at the lowest levels (going by SC2 ranks) so the idea that protoss are easiest for newbies doesn't seem to hold up at all.
Suffice to say i disagree and it kinda annoys me how many people want to say how easy protoss is without actually putting their money where their mouth is and trying it out.
