    I am just getting bored with Brotoss, and since I have been watchin a lot of psy starcraft lately, I have been tempted to try out zerg.
     
    I have been doing descent, only losing half the games I play at silver.
     Being able to recreate your army so fast, sure is fun! :D
     
    Edit: I am having a little bit trouble with not using all the money all the time, but I reckon you have to save up econ sometimes.
    I am also having a hard time microing the monsters :)
    Infestors are indeed OP, haha ^^

    The wierd part about playing Zerg is that the only way to increase your production is to build more hatcheries.  Oftentimes this means building extra hatches in your main or natural just to get more larva.  Also being very very methodical about using your queens to spread creep and inject larvae.  Otherwise I'm glad you're enjoying it.  Remember you don't need to micro if you just overwhelm them with units =)

    the fact that changing now would lead to a freefall on the ladder for me, i just can't do it.
     
    separate ladder ranks for separate races!!

    I'm tempted to switch to Terran on my main account.  I'm sick of everyone all-ining me because my race is "OP".  Terrans seem to Marine/SCV all-in and Zergs either win by forcing you to play safe or pu
     
    Also, Zerg is hell of fun but insanely frustrating at times (As I have experienced on my second account numerous times). There will be games where you feel like you outplayed your opponent by a mile and still lost. I have lost as Zerg with double the worker count and bases, and better upgrades.
     
    And yes, infestors do feel broken both when you play as Zerg or against Zerg.

    I have temporarily changed race from toss to zerg a few times now.
    After playing a ton of matches as toss I want something different, play about 10-15 matches as zerg then go back to playing toss.
    I think if you grind out one race non stop you get kind of bored, thats why so many pro players are seen offracing every once in a while.

    @StepwiseDuchess: I reckon the stream? How do you know when he streams, does he have a facebook fan page/twitter or something?
    Also, is always him casting, because his voice changed like when he changed headset :p

    THis is my 13th (maybe 14th) match as a Zerg, I would say I outplayed this fellow or? :P

    The mistakes are obvious, did not scout behind the shrubbery, did two bad rallies, and got supply blocked.
    Yet, I felt I did so much right :)

    I've played zerg throughout both seasons and I love it, even though there was a moment when i had lost a couple straight due to my race that I wanted to switch to toss. The thing I love about zerg though is once you get close to maxed it's actually a good thing to start storing money up and that the army is expendable since you can get another in a couple clicks. The only downside is the bad early game and having so many mechanics to have to keep track of throughout the game, but that also makes zerg more interesting to play.

    @amir90: I spent plenty of times playing other races in Brood War, so I know what's what.  maybe if i spend a week messing around with AI i'll get my hotkeys in order, then possibly take the ladder by storm.
     
     terran's ok, but the prospect of a warp prism dt drop is amazing.  or maybe i'll make a hundred banelings.  so many possibilities!

    I did the exact same thing a while back. I lost thirteen games in a row, but I eventually found my stride and now have a lot of fun as Zerg. Good Luck!
