So instead of just looking something up you make a stupid thread instead. Or were you just looking for a cheap discussion?

not really. i bought the game two weeks ago and i've just been playing matches with the computer or doodoling with the editor program. i get owned in multiplayer and i dont feel like spending all the hours to practice and finding out little tricks in the game

Starcraft is a classic but avoid Starcraft 2 at all cost.

I knew this Korean kid and high school and I asked him about it and he said it's all totally true.

This is all the kid who beat the some kids from the soccer team in a 8 vs 1 match. He said he wasn't that good compared to people who take it more seriously but it was fucking unreal watching him play that fast.

More dumbed down is better to describe it.

From what I hear, it kind of is. People told me to play it, but I've never even touched an RTS so yeah.

It kind of is. They have TV shows of Starcraft, not to mention the huge amount of people that show up to the tournaments.

I did similar things in SC, Q3 and many other games in high school too. That's why I'm on /jp/ now.
It's not really that hard.
