no this is not a clone of the "which race do you use more" but which race do you find most using a real strategy with and not just sending vast amounts of units in like most zerg players do
I'd have to say protoss because theyre more expensive so I find myself using strategy to keep them alive, for one like having mutliple sheild batteries especially if I have archons protecting a base
Carriers are another good one for strategy they really arent that good attacking alone, they much more like support units, but more useful than a BC because they fire to slowly a head to head fight without yamato carrier wins
with teran I find myself doing less strategy except if im going against protoss then.. i'l send in a couple of science vessle do a couple of EMP shockwave and half their health is already gone
like I said before zerg I have no strategy with except to throw vast amounts of units at, zerglings fully upgraded can take out buildings in no time, 12 zerglings can take out a building faster that any other 12 units
If you take away Yamato you have to bring carriers down to 4 interceptors, or it is not a fair fight. Of course the unit with more upgrades wins

. I would say terran first because you have to pick units that assist your plan, because terran doesnt have a well rounded unit while zerg have a hydralisk, and protoss have the dragoon. With terran you have to seige at the right times, and build turrets in the right places.
Terran, no question about it.
Terran has cloaking, nukes, they can lift off, they have siege tanks, yamato, science vessels, medics, spidermines etc.
All races have the most potential for strategy. Whether you choose to look for it and apply it is up to you.
Yes but zerg do require less skill and strategy to win with them. Just getting 4 or so hatcherys and massing up hydras... zerglings... whatever is easy and you can have a huge army in no time at all... but there is some strategy with them like for defence and lurker placement, of course i dont really consider it a strategy.. more of an annoyance... but getting like 100 scourge and flying over all enemy bases half way through the game... typically they will have air units and if the player is zerg there overlords are gone. Give you a prime chance to attack then.

Hes right you know. When you see the pro players (namely, koreans) at work, they think up the craziest strategies possible, and they work.
I do think that the zerg are the least of all the strategy races but it is true that they all take at least a little bit of strategy.
I think we all think Zerg have the least strategy because we dont know any Really good devestating strategys other then constantly sending massive amounts of units to the enemy base.
If you do have any Real good ones... lets hear them.
I don't have any good ones but the really good players probably do.
I really suck on multiplayer
Sure, you can mass tons of Zerg units and hurl them at someone and win, without strategy. But, if your opponent has strategy and you don't, your armies are going to fall with ease. That is, if he's even stupid enough to just sit around and allow you to mass an army in the first place.
I would have to say that zerg is the best at drops, then terran, and in the last Protoss.
Indeed lurker drops are devestating... but id place protoss before terran... reaver drops are brutal.
I saw a devastating zerg strategy today. My ally got a spawning pool fast, researched burrowing, and built about 12 lings then went into the enemys base. Instead of attacking him, he burrowed. This guy didn't build very fast, he was terran. He forgot to make turrets or any type of detector (retard). So.. finally after the guy makes MASS bcs and sends em off to fight, my ally unburrows his lings and kill everything. It actually was quite funny seeing the other persons reaction.
You also forget that zerg have nydus canals, and also defilers.

Ay, there's the rub...
12 lings lvled a terran base before a few bcs could come back?
If he's going mass BCs just kill him off with the 12 Lings before he even gets a Starport. If he has troops to stop you, then they're going to be there once he sends out the BCs anyway, so don't give me that either.

Just kill him before he's able to get anything to stop you and you'll be good to go.
Sry Mini moose that was kinda like what you said.
Agh agh Rayne ur right. I was playing Shrimpy's new map, maximum destruction its called, and a shuttle dropped reavers into my base. I sent 12 hydras to defend it, and my hero that must survive was a hydra, i thought he was a regular 1, and he got killed and i lost.
Reavers are hateful...
zerg. thats all i can say. im a master with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ya
Zerg does require a massive amount of strategy, for example, Using Macro skills would preserve most of your fighting force, also Zerg depend on one structure to build everything and require constant upgrades to even combat the enemy races... Terran is the middle of the road race to me.. and Protoss... I can't say too much about it, I just goon rush..

i resent that! that was very mean of you. lol jk.
zerg need stargety due to there weakness! i myself mass out on hydra's and fully upgrade them! and if the other person is zerg bring a overlord of there base so you can see there creep and my a nuydus cannel (cant spell it

)
I wouldnt say the zerg are a weakness... or have a really strong weakness besides the fact that there buildings need to be close together in order to build. I mean hell Hydralisk even not upgraded will still pwn most anything with enough of them... and since zerg are known for massing... it shouldnt be to big of a problem.
predieanalien the spelling is Nydus
lol
I like Zerg.
The End.
PS Except Ghosts.
Now The End.
I'd say terran.
I find when I'm zerg I either go mass hydras or ling/muta. (when I'm playing to win).
I find when I'm toss I go mass goons, or MAYBE a reaver drop or dt rush.
But when I'm terran there is a whole host of strategies I tend to use:
M&M
M&M + a little metal
metal
vulture drop rush
wraith rush (vs zerg) to metal
i find myself dropping in weird places to attack my opponents from a distance. ie tank drop on ledge at 12 to hit vespene at 3.
SCV rush..... jk
