there are some balance issues again, because CL got way overbuffed and NE vs ORC seems to be quite broken

I regularly play team games (normal melee, not talking custom games), and I have to disagree with this suggestion for several reasons:
-Yes, playing solo can be daunting, you will lose multiple times until the matchmaking system figures out against which opponents to match you. In team games, this is somewhat mitigated by the fact that your teammatest could balance this out. But the reality is that most of the time as a new player, you will nevertheless still be the cause of your team losing. It just won't be that obvious as it is in 1v1. And while in 1v1 you only lose for yourself, in teamgames you are probably making your
teammates losr too, potentially leading to an unenjoyable for at worst up to 7 other people.
-Quite often, teammates in teamgames can be quite "demanding", so if it seems that you might not really know what you are doing, prepare to be yelled at or even insulted frequently.
-Also if you are plaing team games, I found that there is a lot of greater variety in strategies than in 1v1, so while this means that a lot of different stuff can work, it also means that it's harder to get a grasp of the subtle, but nevertheless, essential details to many of the strategies.
-Yes there are many hardcore players around, but imho there is still a steady influx of new players. I mean, once you are in the correct matchmaking bracket, it doesnt really matter you how many good players there are, as you wont play them anyway. It just might take some more games to get to this point, if there are relatively few new players. I think that (both on battle net and the user-created w3champions ladder), you will probably find opponents at your skill level after maybe 10 initial games it takes to calibrate your rating. Just force yourself past those games, and imho it should become a great fun game to play at any skill leve.

I agree. I think its far easier to learn playing 1v1 with people at your level (which 10 games is more than enough to get to usually), than to try 2v2.

I always found 3v3s relaxing while 1v1 stressful

especially when you have at least one teammate that you know

Does anyone do a lot of Liquipedia editing that can quickly message me to help with some Liquipedia standards or if I'm missing something? Feel free to message me. The only build order that I can see on Liquipedia is this Undead Fiend BO. I would like to copy this and add the most common build orders for all races, and a landing page that links them all together to help new players. If not, I'll just copy this as the template and move things around.

A great idea, hopefully you can get the go-ahead there

I started with Human since that's the race I know best. I'll be adding some other race build orders later this week. Let me know if you have any feedback!

You can also check Grubby's channel since he has in-depth guides and build orders for each faction. He did a series of "beginner" build orders that could really be considered just your standard way of playing each race. Great stuff for beginners to learn.

Just search for "bloody beginner" on his YT channel:
