Youd be suprised. uuuh, it's not 2 weeks, more like 2 years at least. xD Basically once you get to a level that you understand what each thing your enemy does/doesn't do (like makes a singe unit or moves something somewhere) means for the whole situation of the game, and you learn how to best take advantage of each of those tiny facts, only then you'll be able to say you have a pretty good understanding of the game. But to get the hang of the basics, a few months is needed.  | ||

Youd be suprised. sorry, i couldn't disagree more There are soooo many noobs on Sc2. And im not surprised but as for iccup, the majority of people are stuck at D rank and those people are still actually pretty damn good. Not to mention nowadays the amount of smurfs on iccup is absolutely ridiculous. 2 weeks to understand the entire game of BW? you need to make it more obvious when your trolling buddy | ||

Youd be suprised. lol. getting icc c+ is way harder then getting upper masters in sc2. evry 50 apm allin hero can get masters in sc2,in broodwar youll just get stomped. granted i dont know how hard icc is these days. but i know how many TERRIBLE players ive m et in upper masters. and when i compare my old wgt/pgt/icc expirience to todays masterleague all i can do is facepalm and remember the days when a rank actually showed you the other persons skill. | ||

For me, it is JUST right. Of course, beating other human opponents in 2011 is a different issue. But i must emphasize, the game itself is not too easy or too hard | ||

But i must emphasize, the game itself is not too easy or too hard well what you say i right. but compared to sc2 its worlds harder. its stupidly easy to get into the top xK worldwide just by copying a build or cheesing evry game. sc2 is just that random/easy. try that in broodwar and evry random D- scrub will laugh at you cause your mechanics suck so hard and your builds timings will be terrible. lets be real, bw is a game for competive men . sc2 is a game where evry random dude can do well if he just knows whats the fotm style is(and gets lucky). | ||

But to get the hang of the basics, a few months is needed. I was meaning getting the hang of the basics, clearly not understanding the whole game. I meant that after like 2 weeks of dedicated playing you can basically understand the overall strategies of each matchup for one race. And if you title your games "1v1 d-", you will get some pretty bad players. Players who just make cannons and such. | ||
