    on second viewing it wasnt as awesome of a game as I thought...but it was a convincing win and the emotion of the time for getting some payback was enough

    and as a bonus a recent zerg mirror that went very well

    edit:

    to add to jonny7 what I do with zerg sccouting is I build 9 drones...scout with 9 get an overlord and then 10th drone. When both overlord and drone finish at roughly the same time you'll have enough for 2 more drones keeping the economy ticking over, gas on 12 and depending on what I see from the scout then its spawning pool or expansion on 13/14. in 1v1 I more often go pool because at silver I get alot of zealot rushes/cheese and I need to be moving up the tech tree quicker.

    This is why I switch from Zerg every once in awhile. I see my opponent is Zerg and I hate that matchup, so I go Protoss. The only hotkey I know is "e" for probe basically, but I quickly pump zealots, hit him when I have 4 or 5, make him paranoid and ground defence, while I wall off and tech straight to voidray. Great thing about playing Zerg is you know all their bloody weaknesses.

    Basically they are a bluff race, paper tigers until mid-game

    Zerg. I don't have to queue up units and hotkey different buildings. The only thing is to build the necessary building the the units you want and they all spawn at the same time.

    Protos really don't have air superiority and they are expansive. The only problem is when they wall off. Ground units are very hard to kill with zerg since they have so many HP plus if they have the psi storm. When they do actually wall off, the only thing I can do is to get mutalisk fast, since they can kill void rays easily. When they do wall off completely you know they are going for air or there is a pylon somewhere in the map.

    You can surpass terran in economy very fast since they wall themselves off most of the time. The only thing I can predict is whether banshee or tank. Hydralisk and Mutalisk is always the key although they are quite expansive in the early game. Expand expand against terran.

    Terran because I'm a n00b and I have just discovered the joy of the cloaked Banshee rush :P
