Oh....
Hey TL, today I played a really interesting and different Random vs Random that I thought I'd share with you.

and then the game got paused and so i can't screenshot the replay of it, but here's the reconstructed version of chat:
*game paused*
NDDseer: sure
MetalCard: 3
MetalCard: 2
MetalCard: 1
MetalCard: Rock scissors rock
NDDseer: Paper
MetalCard: I said three at once!
NDDseer: Ooops soz imma noob
MetalCard: 3
MetalCard: 2
MetalCard: 1
NDDseer: Paper paper rock
MetalCard: Scissors paper rock
NDDseer: !!
MetalCard: Okay first to 2, you’re up 1
MetalCard: 3
MetalCard: 2
MetalCard: 1
NDDseer: scissors
MetalCard: scissors
MetalCard: Okay again
MetalCard: 3
MetalCard: 2

If MetalCard ever reads this, thanks for an amazing game, and for having the honour to leave after losing instead of trying to play it out. If anyone else is sick of PvP and wants to move onto other things but doesn't want to just leave games, this is a bit of a fun and different way to approach it, so long as you trust the other person if they agree to be a part of it.
If anyone meets me PvP on ladder (i play on NA and SEA, NDDseer), feel free to challenge me =P

Didn't choyafOu do this and then he got widely criticized for doing that? i remember there was an incident where he just kept playing rock paper scissors with pro players on the ladder and he got ridiculously high on the ladder...

Edit: Damnit dude above beat me to it

Who's Choya? If this has been done before, I didn't know about it but cool that someone else has had the same idea.

Just play phoenix openings if you hate the match-up that much; way more fun than RPS.

Im not sure what Blizzards take on it is but there was a similar happening in Korea (by pros) where someone got in quite a bit trouble I believe.

If PvP is a coinflip or just as good as rock paper scissors how do MC and Inca have 80 percent win rates? Really lucky?

if blizzard sees this you're in trouble :D

Even rock papper scissors has pros...

Why did you go from three at once to one?
|
I did this when I got into a stalemate before the stalemate detection. I won.

I'd say on maps with normal size ramp the better player usually wins, but there are still free wins (phoenix vs. robo, robo vs. dt, blink vs. pheonix) On maps without that, it is 100% a complete RPS.

Every time you quote a long post to add a single line of text God kills a kitten.

I feel like you lost 2-1 on the opening round and then manipulated the rules to go more rounds until you won. It should have just been best of 3, and if you were saying 3 at once then you lost 2-1.
Also, who calls it Scissors Paper Rock? It's rock, paper, scissors...

Probably because they tied twice, making it 1-0, and they still wanted to make it a Bo3. I guess they wanted to find the second result, and then they would have done a tiebreaker if necessary.
I also think that PvP isn't a complete coinflip and that skill is still somewhat important -.-' If you're just doing rock-paper-scissors because you both hate the match-up and don't want to play, I understand that. But it's not because it can't be won properly.
