I have never understood why soooooo many people are afraid to play 1v1. I mean what is the worst that can happen? You lose a game.. BIG FKIN DEAL!!!!
I am not here to brag. Im just a lowly gold player.
Starcraft 2 is a GAME. People play for FUN.... Majority of the people are not going to become pro's and make a living of sc2. So why all the fear of playing 1v1??
I just want a opinion from someone who does not play 1's and their reasoning behind it.
If people only enjoy 2's, 3's, 4's then all power to them. But i know for a fact that there are people who want to play 1's but do not beacause of some sort of fear of being on their own in the game.
Where do you get the idea that everyone plays games for fun? It's probably one of the most wrong and inaccurate statements ever said in the realm of online games. Many people play sports for reasons other than fun, and it's the same with games and SC2 (this doesnt mean you cant have fun while playing, but it's not what i'm going for when I hit find match).Some people have a very competitive mindset when it comes to playing a game against another person, or even with themselves, whether it be in basketball or SC2. Some people who are less comfortable with their own abilities usually have trouble hitting the find-game button. For other players who feel the competition is too steep, they choose to "enjoy" teamgames. Some people dont want to improve, and may choose to play team games or avoid 1v1's. It's all something personal, different strokes for different folks. Personality has everything to do with it.
