I've been playing this game for about 6 years and I've never rose above C level but i've always loved the game. I'm not sure about the TL.net rules, because i've mostly been lurking, and what kind of threads are admissable and which aren't, but i just played this most incredible game and i urge you to watch it if you love Starcraft, seriously. I bet it doesn't feel nearly as good watching this as playing it.

Also, post some of your games that were really intense (and not necessarily good by normal standards) and made you go "god damn this is the best game in the world" even if you lost

Well, if i'm out of line here feel free to close this thread but i really felt like sharing this.

SCII just doesn't feel as rewarding to win... none of my wins in Wings of Liberty felt nearly as amazing as my first in iCCup.

I'll agree that none of my wins in SC2 felt as rewarding as wins on ICCUP.
Maybe ill feel differently in a few years(a decade).
I used to save so many replays and send them to my one good friend being like.
"OMG i recalled in this game for the win, it was amazing! I hallucinated so many arbiters!"
So i know how you feel posting this here :D
I don't really have those feelings in sc2 yet but I think the key word is yet.
I mean when it came out people insisted that you never had to micro.
BW pros training sc2 is like kiss making a dub step album.

Wow~really nostalgic thread
Epic bump by X)Benny.
From what I observe in sc2 games, harass doesnt deal much damage to econ. Some kind of design flaw there. Each worker only brings in 5 minerals, losing 5-6 is nothing as opposed in BW, 5-6 lost, quite significant.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Actually this makes really good sense. SC2 players favor to destroy buildings instead of workers.
Also consider that you have much more workers in SC2 but lot less income =
More gas workers and 5/8 of the income from BW, less 200/200 power army.
