I play Zerg because I simply suck at playing Terran and Protoss, and Zerg is the only race I am compatible with.
Random: 1) you have a little advantage, because your oponent doesnt know your race on the beggining. And especialy 2) its a lot more fun, there are 9 match possibilities instead of 3, cool! =)

Terran is the micro race and Protoss is the midrange, maybe macro race though...Terran because I got like 9 ways to harrass. Not to mention the many cheesy openings you can do.
I also play protoss since I hate macroing and I prefer microing a lot more.
I'm not saying Terran is or is not a macro race based on mechanics, but based on the fact that they lose every macro game against the other two races.toss are easiest to macro and require macro. zerg are hardest to macro and with no macro will fail terribly. terran have mules

Protoss and Zerg can get away with <24 on minerals (since they pull less to build) but Terran need around there. Regardless, you should have extra for maynarding.you need 24 on minerals and 6 on gas for one base max. which is 30 workers. i usually do not have more then one expo in 1v1 and end the game with 60-65 workers. and usually the game ends when i start getting my third.
EDIT: its good to have more workers on one base for a while, so when your expo is done you can send half the workers there.

First, you gain an even bigger DISadvantage because you cant strategize your build and practice your race beforehand. and your second reason is just ???
Playing random doesn't have any effect on your win/loss ratio, unless you happen to be a progamer, which none of us are.Winning is way more fun then loosing.
You practice all 3 races overall, leading to a better understanding of gameplay mechanics and how each race works. Yeah, you could be better playing a single race, but most people who play random prefer the variety, and it is less fun to stick with a single race each game.First, you gain an even bigger DISadvantage because you cant strategize your build and practice your race beforehand. and your second reason is just ???
Hey, what i just have to do is practice 3 races insted of 1 and i really dont have problem with that, Im actualy rank 12 diamond right now. For the other one: what is the other reason for playing besides having fun? =)
If you are going to play to win games rather than to have fun, what's the point of playing at all? (given its not your job, obviously)
I'm zerg now, fuking imba terran.
Not sure how marauders were giving you much trouble if you were zealot heavy.
Ya, realizing that now. random is fun.
Zerg definetly there's nothing better then charging an enemy base with 400 banelings or 400 zerglings. To not mention using Broodlords to corrupt the enemys super units and turning their own wepons against them.
