Recently I started playing ladder.
Yeah, although I got SC2 shortly after it came out I only just started playing for real.
I mean I did play hundreds of games vs the computer, and the single player campaign. I watched a lot of games and joined in "the community", but I had the ladder fear. Whenever I played it seemed so intense and if I lost I felt frustrated and if I won I almost felt just as bad. Anyway it's a familiar story on TL.
I just want to say I have got over it and realised that SC2 is really a fun game. I''m playing on a laptop now which is less than ideal, but I'm no great player anyway. The funny thing is that I really don't feel that bad if I lose.
I want to say that if you are still stressed out by the ladder, get over that shit and just play games. Win or lose it doesn't matter, and you're really missing out if you are just watching streams rather than playing yourself.
PS: anybody on China server want to add me as a friend?

Yeah, I got a lot of motivation to play when I just treated it as a game.

I came in an expected a sarcastic title with a ton of sc2 hate.
I am pleasantly suprised

SC2 is really much fun, especially if you play it with friends/someone else or join a team!

SC2 and RTS games are great fun.
I like RA3, CoH1, and SC1 also.
i mainly bought RA3 because of Gina Carano, and then, it turned out to be a great game.

I've started playing protoss to switch it up a bit (started with protoss in WoL, then to zerg, terran and then a bit of all), and I'm really enjoying ladder at the moment. First I was just cheesing the fuck out of people, but now I prefer going macro games.
I'm actually enjoying protoss. But don't tell Olli that

Amen brother. Playing as different races helps as well. Keeps it fresh, and you always have the "it's not my main race" excuse.

Sc2 is the only game that kept me playing for years

Hm, interesting deduction.

Never understood ladder anxiety. Just play the game, and have fun. When you stop having fun go do something else.

I want to rate this response a 5 too.

I didn't say it was just a game, I said I treated it at just a game when I played ;_;

Not sure if there is an exact equivalent, but in German we say that you should treat others exactly the way you want to be treated. So don't treat her like a game.
And yes, SC2 is a Lady.

The German version is better. It rhymes.

I don't fully understand it either. I have played online games for years. I think it is something to do with it being basically a 1v1 game rather than team. I also think the fact a lot of ppl in the SC community like to shit on low league players and have insanely high standards, doesn't help.
