Yeah, team games aren't meant to be taken seriously without a partner. Or maybe they are, but I run into the same situation as you, so I just try to stick to 3v3 or shit that won't piss me off when I lose. | ||

Just kidding! RTing is no way to play RTS games unless you want to break your computer, get/make friends to play with for team games with or stick to 1v1. Hell I still play with my BGH buddies from 10 years ago now in SC2. They are the reason why I actually play the game so much. | ||

I'll agree that matching arranged and random teams together is shit, but whoever goes into random team games thinking that strong organization, teamwork, and quality players are all going to coexist is foolish. If it bothers you this badly, just don't play random teams? D= The point (obviously) is that you will be matched against another random team with the same handicap, and after many games your ability to overcome this will separate you from other random team players, that's part of the fun. Except in SC2 there is no fun in Random Team, it's you and 3 people that range from bronze league to top diamond vs an arranged team that usually has a 90% winrate and is going to kill you off in a manner where your skill means nothing, and telling your allies what to do or what your opponent is doing is not enough. | ||

I always play with friends in team games. The only minor exception to this would maybe be my 4v4 Randoms, Which I usually end up partying with a friend, so I'm in with him and 2 pubby allies... Makes it much more bearable. | ||

Rewind a month ago and if you went into 4v4 random your allies would generally be around your level and its nice because you get to meet people to play with that are decent. I made a few friends playing 4v4 random because we'd see each other every game because there's only a few people in our skill range. With the matchmaking "fix" its turned to utter shit but hey, you get to play a shitty game much faster now. | ||

I've assembled a pro tip guide using your logic for SC2 No Chat Channels Pro Tip: Use IRC No LAN Pro Tip: Get reliable internet or don't go to LAN parties Terran possibly Overpowered? Pro Tip: Pick Terran My custom game can't be seen or played, it's not on popular list Pro Tip: Don't make maps Bnet is Down? Pro Tip: Don't play Starcraft 2 I want to play fairly matched Random Team games when friends aren't on or I don't feel like playing with my friends: Pro Tip: Don't play Random Team games | ||

Anyway random usually sucks. If my friend and I play 3v3 with a random, the 3rd guy always sucks badly. 2v2 with randoms is usually terrible since they're half the team. But other than that, points are pretty meaningless. You're just being sucked into Blizz's mind-controlling methods. | ||

I think that it is 10x harder to get in diamond 4v4 with a random team than to get in diamond in 1v1. Most of my games i'm like 1v3 or 2v4. Quite good to practise your macro and your trashtalk :p | ||
