the 12 unit cap is to prevent rushing in large numbers and you need skills to manage a large army. and then you got wc3, which isn't really that bad of a game, but they jumbled all the abilities, like undead got the zerg trait of weak large armies and the protoss trait of buildings building themselves.

Person: What are you doing with your overlord?
Me: Scouting.
Person: Oh. You should keep it at your base so it doesn't die.
Me: -_-

At least your friends play Dota, which is a variation of War3 which is an RTS game.

My friends only play Football Manager and PES. (I play those too but obviously not exclusively)

my laptop's wallpaper is a collage of progamers' photos, so when an officemate sees it:

officemate: who are those?
me: sc programers from korea
officemate: ?!? ... no reaction

then i tell my officemates how the proscene works in korea. i don't get much reaction from them until i mention how much are the salaries of these teen progamers.

I really like the graphics for Starcraft... I like them better than a lot of the games being released currently.


Same here, not too plain, not too flashy.

I still think it's funny that Marines and Ghosts explode into a bloody target sign though

Most of my friends used to play it. And the others have seens me noobstomp one of our friends so they think it's just normal and cool.
I linked some random vods to a girl who wanted to know what it was and in the ones I linked some of the pro's were crossdressing for unknown reasons. I should have watched them beforehand.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

Even though I never played sc before, I'd say, through watching some C+ players' VODs, I can be C+ in 2 weeks. That's my opinion as I watch others play sc.

one of my friends in IRL plays/follows sc, he plays less then i do and only really watchs GOM, but everyonce and a while at a party we'll be talking and it comes up, everyone around tends to go quite at a lose for words untill we change the topic.

asside from him ive had people who call them selves gamers trash the game syaing "crappy graphics" "kekeke zerg rush" and the usual stuff.

other times it kinda goes
"so you follow pro sc, whats the point its jsut a game
"yea, you follow pro hockey, its just a game...."
he and i have reached a mutual understanding of eachother now

Person: So what do you usually do?
Me: Game
Person: Oh what games?!
Me: Just Starcraft
Person: oh... that's so old man! When does Starcraft 2 come out?!

And after that I usually don't explain the whole pro scene unless they're really close friends. I'm usually able to change my close friends' mind about it from

"Oh what a waste of their life"
to
"That's true... at least they're doing what they love and making money out of it... what a lot of passion!"
