I've only read the first two pages of the thread so I hope nothing earthshattering has happened in your quest yet. If it's already resolved this is some general advice I can give to people having similar feelings:
Don't bother with it, it's impossible to enlighten ignorant people like that and in the end you'll just end up looking like a moron. Once I tried to tell some uni mates of mine about a weapon in MW2 (which I only bought out of horrible desperation for some entertainment  ). I presented them actual damage charts and such to them, to which they basically responded with "hey man, we're on our second prestige playthrough and you are only level XY, we know better". Which is basically the same as someone telling you he's the bomb at SC2 because he has more portraits unlocked than you. They were also horrible players.
Really, just don't bother. It's not worth it.

Ok really...this thread is 16 pages long and is featured. Surely if there's a thread you should read all the way through before posting, it's a featured blog 16 pages long. Chances are...SOMETHING important happened later on. Blog's don't get to 16 pages by people posting "5/5 cool read."

Yes you can beat them, but is it worth it ? Yes !
I had a similar situation earlier in my life (I was 13) where i beated some guy at starcraft 1 who said he was '' the shit '' at school. I decided to play him, in fact we played 3 games. After winning them all I decided to watch the replays, because I feld something was fishy in his playing. Well guess what, he hacked. So, the day after that I went to school and told everybody how bad i beated that hacker. IMMEDIATLY after that, girls were around me, my penis lenght went past the 7 inch mark and this guy NEVER had any success with girls, in fact, he turned out in a homo right after.
So you SHOULD play them and tell everybody how bad they are after you win, life just get soooo much better and your opponents will turn homo's.

I guess womens doesnt quite concern him if he is homo, right. On the other hand good for you..

Here's what you do man. You challenge them to a 2v1, play terran, wall off and nuke rush. Then you go nuke their bases and offensive gg. It's foolproof!
|
I completly think you should put them in their place. I have friends who thought they were so good at SC:BW and asked what races/league etc they played. And they told me they were #1 on Fastest US East. So i was like wtf? How can you possibly think you are the best at fastest. But anyway it was just pathetic to hear them. Maybe they're good at their custom but the real competition is true 1v1 ladder. They also did lots of 3v3 BGH wich is even more pathetic in my opinion. Challenge them in some bo3 or bo5 because god knows they will cheese to death rofl.

ugh I wanted to make this kind of post first...
anyways GL OP, put them in their place for not playing a video games as much as you and talking to girls and telling jokes! In fact, do it every time someone brags about being good at a video game. There was this 13 year old kid down the street playing hop skotch and I overheard him talking about how good he was at Mario Kart. I didn't have the balls to tell him I would destroy him because I thought it might come off weird since I'm 36.

Shockingly, rather than accepting your advice, they are rude and wonder why you are talking to them. 2. Two people are carrying a basketball, about to play 21. After seeing that they aren't that good, you randomly show up to challenge them to a 2v1. Shockingly, rather than accepting your bold challenge, they don't give a fuck and tell you to fuck off. This isn't how the real world goes. You don't bust into games of 21 and challenge kids for their honour; You ask if you can play too and then show them you're good. Why am I even explaining this it's fucking common sense. pretty much you can look at the posts in this thread and easily figure out who are the normal people that happen to play starcraft, and the people who do nothing but play starcraft
You can look at the posts in this post to see who the elitists who judge people by their posts are!

Edit: Like everything about this situation shows you've already lost. Considering only talking to girls a negative thing. Having a legitimate point against them but being shut down. Not standing up for yourself and your point and favouring avoiding argument.
Just let this one go man, you've already lost. Holy hell you're so negative. @OP just ignore them it's a waste of energy to even try convince them how fat they are. How is that negative? Do you disagree? Edit: If you really want to play with them, the best route is to go in humble and silent, win convincingly, and then stay silent afterward. There's no one more frustrating to lose to than someone like that (for me at least). I think it's negative, you basically just shut down his every motive to even try to convince them lol which is funny. Yes I do agree. I'm making some wild jumps here, but I'm imaging the 2 kids in the story making some stupid comments in passing to the OP and forgetting about it. And then him focusing on "I'll get them!" And what's going to happen? He'll either lose and look like a joke, or he'll win and they won't give a fuck. OP, just do you. That means not making a diabolical plan to get back at 2 guys who play Starcraft 2 casually. That's my advice. Chill obviously doesn't understand how things work in the real world. Here's what you do. It's halloween soon so go the store and get yourself a cape. cover it in elmers glue and sprinkle glitter all over it so it shines like the night sky. Next time you see these two faggots in class talking about some shit stand up on a desk and shout I CHALLENGE YOU TWO NERDS TO A DUEL. The girls will oooh and ahhh about how fucking studly you are, but ignore them, we'll get to the condom talk later (just kidding who wears that rubbery shit). Have the school set up the computers in your local lecture hall. They can project the game on the big screen. It'll be a 1v2 because you're the mothafrackin honka boss here okay? You'll have to play Terran because you can only play with one hand cuz your other will be busy holding each girl's hair up while they blow you and everyone knows you dont need 2 hands to play terran. The game is gonna start and they're going to respectively 6 pool you and proxy 2 gate. Don't make a single scv. Take the 6 you have and make them line up at the front of your command center. Tell them to start spinning their drills in unison as they hold them up to the sky. This will summon the Spiral King, Lord Genome to your base. Once their units get to your location the King will absorb them into his body with his Spiral Power, giving him the power of all 3 races, essentially making him a Xel Naga. Your opponents' workers will stop mining and bow down to you, chanting your name over and over. Try not to get freaked out by this, keep your composure. The two kids you're playing will start to panic and sweat as Lord Genome stares directly into their soul, they'll try to apologize for ever shunning you, but you'll hear none of their bullshit. The Spiral King will plow his fists through the screen into their pathetic chests and rip out their hearts, holding them in their faces so that the last thing they see is their heart, still beating, still beating, breaking out of their body, and flying away. Like a bat outta hell.
thats the hardest ive lol'd at anything on the net in ages

Just thought I'd alert you...this is a Starcraft forum...there's going to be a ton of people that do nothing but play Starcraft or rather play it a lot. What makes them not normal? How do you define normal? If someone likes SC, and posts on teamliquid, does he need to say...play more basketball to qualify as normal?
not acting like a poop socker when you realize someone else plays sc2 at your school is a start

CheAse, if you want a Gold 1v2 practice partner, I can be one of the two. I am thinking if $1000 is on the line, you ought to really find out if you can beat 2 gold players at once. I'll add you on bnet tonight.

You sir, are correct. CheEse (or however you capitalize his name) didn't do anything rude. He simply heard a conversation about Starcraft 2, a topic he knows something about. He attempted to correct his classmates misapprehension (that 3v3 takes more skill) with an informative fact (that the best players in the world consider 1v1 to be the most important test of skill). That's about as friendly and innocuous as it gets. Anyone who is offended by that or thinks he was a jerk is EXTREMELY sensitive.

Neither of those analogies fit. A better analogy would be like volleyball. You are someone who plays on a professional twos team and are in a class with two guys who are preaching about how much harder sixes is. You then try to join the conversation and offer your input that you feel twos is harder and they laugh at you and tell you that you have no idea wtf you are talking about.
But it's cool because you've helped to hype this up to the point where it's going to be hilarious.

I'm thinking he's talking about one of those tool losers that try to be well "cool" and pick up girls, except they are complete losers?
EDIT: I also know friends sort of like that who think that 3v3, 2v2 is the best, but they know that 1v1 is the way harder thing to do. Only reason why I hate 2v2, 3v3 is because they all spam voidrays and crap, and I'm the only one with an actual army. -.-

Not Starcraft.
Ah man that was awesome. I got nerd chills!
hahaha i love this blog so much.
don't listen to these people CheAse, I know what kind of douchebags you're talking about, and I know this is just all fun and games anyway.
