I'm done with Starcraft 2.

I know how you feel. Last week I played one day and won 4 games in a row with a new build that I'd spent hours practising. Then a few days later I played again and lost 4 games in a row.

I haven't played any league games since then, I'm "taking a break" from league altogether until I get some confidence back. Right now I'm having an absolute blast playing custom maps with friends, alternating between Nexus Wars and Income Wars. Go check them out, if you haven't already. It's so easy just to join a game and jump in and they fill up fast, although there's a bit of a problem with Nexus Wars in that I've had quite a number of games where one person leaves early, you can't really win if a teammate does that, ALTHOUGH WE DID TODAY. Some EPIC contests.

And don't give up on SC2 league. Just go back to the drawing board, take a break, and then return to the fray.

Yeah, you're right. I actually laughed this morning thinking back of how extremely angry I was last night, geez I felt like I could wrestle a lion, haha! This game is very, very frustrating. I just hope that it's rewarding when you start getting a bit better because right now it's really just a huge ball ache.

But thanks dude, will go check those custom games out. I've played a few survival RPG custom games and it was really fun!

Lol dude, I did. Was raging like a bul for about 15 minutes but then I forgot about it. Woke up this morning lus to play again. This game is evil, I'm telling you.

I am also just finishing the iGame comp this month for SC2 and then giving this away to a friend (enemy)......

Must say, for me this is the worst game i have ever bought (ok 2nd worst after BC2) mostly due to the fact that i cant play this game.

Completely agree with the OP and a lot of other posters. The super nigelness of this game just doesnt grab me. What if I dont want to rush or be rushed? Oh right I shouldnt be playing SC2, I get it.

SC2 is all about rushes of some kind, thats all there is too it. What can I surprise the player with and end the game in 5 minutes? Sorry, not worth the R500 I paid.

Which is why I will buy it much later and for completely different reasons.

[Nemesis]

Played 7 1v1 league games last night, and got cheesed in all 7. Managed to win 3, but damn, don't these guys know any other way to play??? Zergling rushes I'm always expecting, but damn photon canons in my own base makes me want to kick my dog.

All I can say is I'm very glad it's not just me that feels that way. I kinda expected people to start tuning me "HAHAA you noob!" or something, but I'm not alone

If tonight goes like last night (8 consecutive losses) .. Omg I think I'll rage something terrible. I'm actually too scared to go play this game now because I know the hulk is gunna come out. It's really hard to keep your composure after 8 consecutive losses. After about game #5 I start becoming quiet and when the people say "HI! Gl hf )" I just don't respond because of epic bleakness.

Maybe I'll start a SCII rage thread later tonight.
