Tac-Tics Profile Joined August 2010 United States 23 Posts #1 "I'm a Terran and I'm fed up with all the racist remarks I've had to hear.



I chose my race the first day after toying around with all three of them for 20 minutes each. I decided to stick with the one I liked because I would get better faster that way. I was a Terran player in Brood War and I remain Terran still and forever.



Yet, I must have chosen the short straw. Everyone hates me. Not for what I have done. Not for what I believe. They hate me for what I am. I can't help what I am. I'm not the one who made Medivacs cost 100/100. I'm not the one who decided to make the MULE so good. (Hell, I forget to send them to minerals after calling them down half the time!) Yet, still, I endure slanderous, hateful speech.



Do I believe my race is superior? I do not know. I do know not to fear the Zerg, because the Zerg already fear themselves. I do not fear Protoss, because the Colossus will eat my marines swiftly with conviction. Do I fear the mirror? The mirror is always scary, for you can only see your own weakness. Yes, I fear Terran. But only because tanks evaporate my army like a thirsty man's only cup of water spilled on a rock in the desert sun (I really ought to watch that minimap better....)



The hate is intense. OP! IMBA! NERF! Though the language is not my native, I feel fully their scorn and ire. Am I really that bad? Was my Battlecruiser rush really that unfair to the opponent? I do not understand.



I shake with uncertainty. What will become of me? I do not know. Even those who persecute me are vague about why they hate me. Some of it may be justified. Maybe my marauders are too robust. Maybe I am too good at camping. My ghosts may be too effective against too much. My medivacs may be too cheap. Too fast. Too easy to use. But those things are also a part of me. Stripped of my marauder. stripped of my ghost, stripped of my flying medivacs, I would be but a shell of a race. Sometimes I think this is all that those who hate me want me to be.



I did not choose to be this way. And what's more lamentable is that some even go as far as to blame my Creator, the One who gave me life. They call Them lazy. They chastise Them for sloth and despondence. I do not know with certainty the will of my Creator, but I know in faith that They will serve me justice in a way only a Creator could see fit.



I know the future will not be easy, but I know if I remain strong, it will bearable. I only pray my children will never have to endure this hateful persecution of my race."

heishe Profile Blog Joined June 2009 Germany 2235 Posts #11 Players who berate other players because of their race are just assholes. But notice: You gotta differentiate, cause there are players who will write "omg fucking terran so ridic imba" and then ragequit and then there are players who write "omg you fucking retard terran u only win because terran is imba". The latter is an asshole, the former is simply a zerg with high blood pressure. If you value your soul, never look into the eye of a horse. Your soul will forever be lost in the void of the horse.

I don't have shit to apologize about. I played terran in BW and I'm playing terran now. Now people who change races because they perceived one race is stronger than the others, that's bullshit. It's just like jerks who pick Rufus in Super 4. You can't possibly like Rufus as a character, so you must be picking him because he's a bullshit high tier character.



What I'm getting at is this: don't get mad at the folks playing terran like they are doing it specifically to fuck with non-terrans. Don't flatter yourselves, it's not all about you.

Reborn8u Profile Blog Joined January 2010 United States 1749 Posts #15 You shouldn't take it personally. I don't blame people for picking Terran, just as you have, I've always played some Terran. I don't even blame people who pick Terran just for the reason that they think it is easier to win with them.



Don't hate the player, hate the game.

I'm just learning to do as good as possible in PvT. If a Terran nerf comes, I won't improve nearly as fast as I am now. The fact is that there are endless amounts of people, of all 3 races, who are better than me at SC2. This means that if I get better at all the fundamentals of the game, I will continue to move up regardless of Imbalances. This holds true for every race. :)

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Mar Sara the sons of former terrans and the sons of former zerg players will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Char, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my favorite players will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the imbalance of their units but by the content of their play. I have a dream today.

This is the internet so you expect a lot of rage/hateful comments words most of the time they shouldn't be taken with any seriousness. no
