Fear the ****ing Swarm!!! This is why Jaedong is my spirit animal. I just wish I had the ability to play Zerg properly. That **** is hard.

And this is the best thing SC2 ever did.

People who can master Zerg are fun to watch. That's a tough class to get good at since there's a bit more management involved.

A bit? Managing a Terran or Protoss army in SC1 with the limited number of hotkeys is already intimidating but commanding legions of Zerglings with those hotkeys is a whole 'nother level.

Well I figured you'd already know so the "a bit" part was just extra. I miss bringing my old ass PC over to my friends house and setting up LAN parties for Starcraft. Back when we had to figure out how to carry those large ass monitors around.

I got both with all the expansions but SC2's load times are a bear for my computer. But there's no way you could be worse than me. I am biologically designed to be terrible at StarCraft. I also have WarCraft 3 but tbh I never put that much time into it. The unit engagements seem to take forever since the game wants to be an RPG just a bit too much.

Fair enough. However if it were Warcraft III, I'd probably school your ass. I have so many god damn hours put into that game that I can basically play with my eyes closed.

Great minds think alike it seems. But fair enough. I think Starcraft is the better game when it comes down to 1 v 1 combat. The story for Warcraft is great, but Starcraft really puts a focus on making sure everything works well together. And man, when you have a huge base on your side in Starcraft, it's like you're managing a freakin' city.
