The way I play an ancient videogame is far superior to the way you play an ancient videogame.

boring
overused
too little minerals
too slow
cliffs are imbalanced

etc etc.


I really fail to see your point. They like fastest, and they don't like aspects of low money. If you played fastest only, I'm sure you wouldn't like waiting to make a pylon at 8 and a gate at 10 rather than at like 6 and 9 or whatever the fuck it is on FPM.

Let noobs have their fun. It's a game. Also, why the fuck would you find it surprising to get people asking you to 1v1 on FPM if by your own admission you play FPM "excessively?" Did you use the wrong word?

the funny thing about the fastest players calling regular maps "slow" is that if you were to put the majority of them in a 2-3 base game on a normal map they have an almost impossible time simply keeping up with resources much less countering any harass or aggressive army movements on the map


Well I can tell from your previous post about how "FPM players are retarded" you are probably one of those fools who has this elite superiority complex regarding the fact that you don't play money maps, but what you've posted here is really stupid and shows your complete misunderstanding of what makes low money and FPM different. The situation you've just listed is almost no different from FPM. It's just macroing. It's getting to the point of having 2-3 bases that's the difficult part, not being plopped into a game with 3 mining bases and 8 gateways already.

my point is, 1v1 on fastest is fucking boring/futile. the minerals and whatever are infinite so if you just build 8648545 cannons, and just mass, how BORING is that? hmm?

OP, when people are playing smash brothers, do you go into the room and tell them that they should be playing 1v1s? Oh, and they should only play on two or three of the maps with all items off, and while you're at it, get out the gamecube (the gamecube smash brothers is a much better game)?

No, at least I hope not. You've got like four or five people in college who are trying to have fun in starcraft, casually. They're going to have different skill levels. It's not about 'this is a skillless newbfest', it's about having fun and how Matt is going to get raped in minutes and just not want to play if he 1v1s Joe. Yeah, feel the waters for if they want to do something else... but to go in being elitist and making one of your main argument points "I know more about starcraft than you do"? I don't get that.

Team and FFA play can make games way more compatible when people have very different skill levels.

If you're actually better than them then you should be able to beat them on their own ground. It shouldn't take too long to get a gist of some adaptations you'll have to do when playing on fastest maps/BGH.

BGH imo is so freaking fun, it's not even as newb as fastest and i dont get easily frustrated like i do with 1v1's and yes i follow the pro scene too.
Ya well, at least I don't fuck a fleshlight with a condom on and cry at the same time.

Strangly enough, your "pro" bo might be the fact you lost in Fastest. Cuz the pro BO doesn't work on fastest.

This statement is contradictory if it is verbatim
I quote: Ben you are a fucking retard. You don't know anything about starcraft. You play the slow way, I play the fast way. The fast way is better, no race is better than the other, and a 200supply protoss army is worse than a 200zerg army.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

One race having a stronger army at x supply doesn't mean that races are necessarily unbalanced.
