Hey there

[yugzilla]

Welcome, where in UK you from? Too bad you don't play SCV, we have tournament coming up.

thanks. Im from London in case you were wondering.

I don't play SCV because i don't have it, Just have not got round to buying it but i still keep up with the tiers and the tourneys etc from time to time so i know how the game/system works so i still can lend a hand or two

You can't really be in the 'know' of a game if you don't play it. Theory and practice are 2 different things, as I always tell me fellow engineers. You can have a perfect blueprint on paper and then when the thing is built it fails for reasons that you didn't anticipate.

That being said, stick with SC2. No game since has been anywhere near as good as that one. SCV is a close second, but still not as good. Why? Because fighting games went down the toilet when arcades died. They tested games for balance by letting people play them, and then releasing a console version with balance changes. It's the reason why SC2 has, and always will have, better balance than any game since.

But hey I just realized that I broke one of the websites 'sacred' rules. I'm not allowed to bash any SC game. Woopsie daisy.

My friend, you are soaking the matches with fire. Don't become the next old bitter man because kiddies that are mods rustle your jimmies. There's nothing wrong with opinions, but everyone has different ones. Remember, what what you think works may not work for everyone. However, let yugzilla breathe. He's still new like you and needs to go through things.

You should get a copy and come along, here are the details: http://8wayrun.com/threads/sep-12-2015-edge-master-series-major-2015-london.19126/
Not too hard to adapt to a new version of the game if you're already good at the previous ones. My 360 has SC2HD on it so we can play that on the next day if you like.
