That game is so complex... as you play and play any given map, there's always something new to learn about the correct strategy in any given situation. For example, I play on the map Bridge Crossing exclusively, and I'm always learning new tricks of how to use the map to my advantage. Give it a try. It's got a fairly steep learning curve, though. You understate its learning curve...it's suuuuch a complex game in general...): | ||

http://etf2l.org/ Europe has the best leagues for TF2, so it might be worth giving a shot at least once. | ||

Warcraft 3 - obvious choice here, like sc but warcraft. Dawn of war - more nooby version of warcraft, which is a nooby version of starcraft. But actually quite competetive since there are alot of noobs out there. Also i think its imbalanced???  Cs 1.6 - the most competetive shooter. Is quite similar to sc in some ways, such as the bm/crappy mods/hax you will encounter. I'd assume this is quite hard at top levels since it's been around for as long as starcraft. Guitar Hero- Quite possibly the only micro based game where you dont use a keyboard. Fun game too. 200 apm guitars zomg! Dota- mod for warcraft 3! I guess this is quite competetive but ive never played it so i can't tell. You could also try out other competetive Korean games such as lineage, lineage 2 and kartrider. Lineage 2 has more subscribers than WoW apparently, which is quite a feat. | ||

Here's a pretty fun video: The guy's tag is Gosu. You can't go wrong. Honestly I never went serious with this game since sc > all, but when you start reading about high level movement skills it becomes as technical as a good fighter. The graphics aren't spectacular but that's hardly relevant. No hate, but if your problem with sc is playing lazily, just pick it up =P Fast-paced games can invigorate where slow-paced ones make you tired. | ||

There used to be 5v5 (5x 1v1, sort of) tournaments in Korea but I think they stopped because there's very little technique in 1v1, and Koreans are carebears when it comes to PvP. | ||

I had a friend who used to be part of one of the top 3 teams in the world in GunZ and he said it became flooded with hackers so he quit. Love this game! Not sure how competitive it is, though. | ||

Also, from what I've read, Space Marines are an entirely unusable race in that game...as in...they just can't be used competitively. | ||

The imba is actually greatly exaggerated in DC. Aside from Necrons, the other races weren't too bad. | ||

I remember playing USA beta and it was fun; then I remember it going down and the chinese version is just annoying because there's no1 to play with and no clans to join. | ||

I don't know how active the user-base is nowadays but I know back when i played they intertwined solo-play with multiplayer, and it was pretty ownage. Check it out if you want. Storyline was pretty beast too NWN is only for people interested in the genre, and fantasy of course. I used to play this game for several years as well, online that is.  Great fun! | ||

There is 4v4 svs league is ongoing, 6v6 smallpub league is finishing is in semifinals already, hockey league just finished, trench wars leagues (3 of them: 8v8 basing, 5v5 wb, and 5v5 jav), and others that I can't think of off the top of my head. The diversity in gameplay is pretty big. | ||
