this is my final season playing

and that is not as retarded as it sounds, but i dont want to explain it

if someone had told me that starcraft was a game centered around bullshit then I quite simply wouldnt have ever started it in the first place

which is why whenever i end up talking about starcraft irl, I tell people not to even give it a shot due to it sucking massive amounts of genitals.

1.  The game is more macro focused than the micro focus of WC3, but the multi-tasking ability you have from WC3 and the RTS mindset will put you in a good position.

2.  There is a match-making system that will place you with people of the same skill, and occasionally slightly above or below your skill level.

3.  Balance is very well done, at the moment Terran is slightly stronger than the other races but you can quite easily win with any of the three.

4.  Learning curve is pretty high.  Since you have prior RTS experience it won't be impossible but it will probably take some time.

5.  Community is a mixed bag.  If you post replays here you'll find good feedback; if you ask for training partners we have several players who are willing to help you out.  There are also a lot of hard-asses.

6.  This game is amazing.  You're short-changing yourself if you don't play it.

to compare it to wc3, zerg and terran can only make footmen and ghouls and archers

for Protoss, the gateway makes the death knight, lich, and crypt lord; the stargate makes far seers, mountain kings, and arch mages; and the robotics facility makes blademasters, blood mages, and demon hunters
