A lil SC1 in '99, a lot of WC3 in 02-04, a bit less than lot SC1 in '08-10. Pretty balanced between SC1 and WC3.

Second post on TL:

First RTS, I've played others slightly but not for any great length.
I got the beta of sc2 and have been playing seriously every week trying to get better.
I come from a competitive Counterstrike background, I use every possible action to get an advantage.
It's so fun!

RTS competitive: War3, BW, DOTA

Casual: DoW, DoW2, COH, CC3

FPS: CSS, CS1.6, COD4, TF2... pretty much it.
Dont look at the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory.

NS? I can only think of Natural Selection, but that's not really an RTS.

NETSTORM!? I sure hope the person who made the poll meant NetStorm. They'd be my hero. (See my blog if you don't know what it is)

I voted mostly BW.

I will stand out, since my rts experience comes from a game called earth2150 & The moon Project, wich is the sequel.
Although its like 10 years ago i played it, i was pretty high ranked on the official servers.

The game is properly mostly known by germans, since it was very populated by them and a few americans.

And ofc the old school stuff like C&C series including red alert, warcraft 1-3, total war series, and totalt annihialation or however its spelled

Anyways, my 2 cents

SC for a year, CS for 2, then back to SC for 4+ years and shared time with CS... Some console games (Madden, Fight night, NBA Live, Halo) nothing too serious, was semi-pro in Madden. Now SC2, which I have not started playing full time, still play BW too.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

SC:BW was the only RTS I've played before SC2, but I've only played FPS games competitively. Trying to get into RTS with SC2 but it's frustrating and a huge mental challenge not being good (when you have played FPS since 97, beginning with the hardest one (QuakeWorld), it's fairly easy to be good at any new one that comes along).

I second this.

I expected around 50% for SC/BW only and like 5% for SC2 is my first RTS.

I played a TON of SC and then SC:BW back as a kid/early teen, then I switched over to wc3 when it came out, basically played that through TFT while still occasionally hopping on SC:BW. I still remember back in the day playing on korean servers like Brain and watching early VODs of the BW proscene. One in particular that I remember vividly because I watched it so much. It was an early FPVOD of Boxer playing some zerg on LT. He was at 12 and makes a sick sick come back. Being a terran player, mostly due to him, that vid always inspired me in getting better back then.



I think was vs [DF]Zergboy..!! or something

I remember, the zerg slow ovie lurker drops him, boxer ends up countering with m&m drop at natural, boxer ends up getting knocked down, lifts WHOLE base to 9, stops the attack with tank on cliff, and overpowers :D


was such a great game
