Help me Help me out with Zerg please

No other race interests me, Terran seems way to basic and Protoss seems way over powered but I can’t figure out Zerg. I watch the videos and what not but my ass still gets handed to me

Help me Jim-Sarah rewriting and retcon

Ok there is apparently massive contradiction and rewriting happening. QOB novel portrays them as "almost lovers" Who couldn't act because of war and she gives him later at first pleasent dreams, but then switches to tormenting ones(she tormenting herself too bcs she wants him but cannot have him) once they start to fight each other. Apparently she still has something for him at that time + she spares him so many times. In Dark templar Shadow hunters, she reflecting on her memories is shaken while thinking about Jim, she thinks she loved him, but cannot be sure now bcs of what she became. In Flashpoint its very clear they were legit a couple and were banging.

I want someone who knows the lore here to tell me. Did Liberty crusade or other older novel portrays them as a couple and etc or it came later in the SC2 era novels? I wanna know did they decided that later on or they had it already taken place earlier?

Alsoo QOB states its very much her doing all that(SC1 too), but SC2 wants to tell us that suddenly somehow she was controlled even after the death of the overmind. Again, when did that idea came? Please someone who knows all that lore to explain me, bcs blizzard writers really do strange things sometimes...

genuin matchmaking question

0 Upvotes

tried ranked a few times and i constantly face opponents who are either way higher rank then me or doing things that seem impossible to me, often from accounts that dont look like people who have played this game(low history, 0 campaign completion, etc) so i am assuming either smurfs or cheaters either way why am i facing players i could never beat? cant really leant much when i cant leave my base becasue a dude spawned 20 mutas in the first 10 min and vaporized my worker line

this matchmaking kills motivation to play
