Day[9] JUST did a newbie tuesday on the subject. I HIGHLY recommend it: Day[9] Daily #269 - How to get into SC2! A (very loose) summary of his advice above is: * Get friend(s) who play, and talk about how awesome SC2 is. Watch pro matches over skype. Send each other replays and laugh about mistakes. Play vs. each other. Etc. * Get a favorite pro who inspires you. Fan boy the shit out of him. Watch his replays. Talk about him w/ aforementioned friends. * Play 1 (only one!) ladder game a day. You can do it. 10-20 mins and it's over. Give yourself two days off each week. * One day, do something crazy * One day, do some build and perfect it. You'll do this same build again every week and compare. * One day, rip off a sweet build you saw a pro do. * Give yourself a goal for every two weeks. It could just be "PLAY 10 games." It could be "Get 50 food by the 7 minute mark." Anything. As long as it's under your control (ie. NOT "get into gold") If you want to chat about stuff a la #1 above, PM me on here, I'd be happy to have more SC2 friends dealing with the same things! | ||

They only play because it's so much easier to make a living off of sc2 in comparison. On March 24 2011 13:18 staringispolite wrote: I suffer from the same problem. I love SC2, but I can't get into laddering, even though I want to. It's a strange duality to feel. Day[9] JUST did a newbie tuesday on the subject.

I'm all for excitement over games and loving sc2 but this seem ridiculous. Why would you try so hard to attempt to enjoy something you don't enjoy. Just go play something else | ||
