I was never actually taught how to type, somehow I just never had a class for it in school. I only learned how when I got to high school and started playing WoW - I would play far later than I should and had my lights off so my parents wouldn't know (they knew), and so I had to actually learn where all the letters were. So I wouldn't be surprised if I have some weird typing habits.

Golden State Warriors, aka the best team in the NBA right now, and far and beyond the hottest bandwagon team in the League this year.

Sung's insinuation is that his friend is a giant douche about supporting sports teams.

I had the same initial reservations about the shift key too soniv, but it really is a non issue now. It didn't take long to get used to it.

Is there any online PvP 1v1 game that is great to play? I'm thinking about stuff like FIFA and SC.

Uh do you mean it has a well developed and competitive metagame and community, and doesn't requie subscription costs or micotransactions to play?

In which case perhaps I could interest you in Pokemon Showdown. There should be a link to it on the OP of this thead. It's a free to play 1v1 competitive Pokemon battle simulator with its own large community, ladder system and more.

Has it been ages since you've played Pokemon and you don't know what a Minccino is? No problem! You can choose to play older formats like ADV which only use the Pokemon, moves, and battle mechanics from the GBA games like Fire Red/Leaf Green or Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald.

Prefer more 'casual' styles of play and wish there was an ARAM mode in Pokemon? Why not try out Random Battles! It's a format where you and your opponent are given a team of 6 random Pokemon who all have weird moves and stuff and you need to figure out how you're supposed to win with this lvl 100 Magicarp that the server decided to RNG for you again.

Want something less RNG but still fun and niche where it's not all about Fully Evolved Pokemon? How about Little Cup? It's a format where you can only use lvl 5 baby or lowest evolved form Pokemon. It's got a surprisingly deep meta despite what sounds like a massive restriction. It's also the only meta where those cute base evolution Pokemon can actually be super competitively viable and truly terrifying!

Don't like Pokemon? Um. Can't help you here I guess.

Swoon! as your Shaymin proves it's in the top percentage of Shaymin.

Rage! as you lose games due to bs hax critd cause your opponent is a no skill lucker dog.

Laugh! as you hax someone and flinch them to death with no skill bs like Haxkiss (aka TogeFlinch aka Flying Egg of Doom aka I can't believe I got to 1600 elo with this terrible strategy)

Have I mentioned it's free? Yes? Ok just checking.
