SC2 seemed good from the little bit of the beta I played. Never bought the retail copy although I've been considering it.

I'm sure i'll get shitstomped online tho..

the ladder system is pretty good. unless you're the best or worst player in the world, the matchmaking will place you against people of your skill level so you win about half your games.

haha I feel it. Play against Very Hard AI until you are crushing it then go ladder. You can save game and reload at any point. So if some attack is coming you can save the game and re-load it and try different things. Custom 1v1's against friends is also really good to get you comfortable playing. Just remember that you don't really learn much from winning whereas losing teaches you a valuable lesson every time.

lol yup, when I was like 13 me and a friend had the sweetest island base in WC2. We started building on the same island to grab resources to supplement our gigantic fleets, and we had two cool bases and eventually our farms got really close. So we called a truce and started building together, orcs and humans making a better tomorrow. Until we ran out of wood and gold.

It was way funnier when we were 13.

They got rid of losses if you're anything under master league, so that helps a bit. Also, I tried to get more comfortable by playing 3v3 and such, it's much less stressful than 1v1, and I actually got kinda decent just by playing 3v3 ladder, then moved on to 1v1
