normies/normalfag only play competetive.
e-sport, do not see it as a "game", they see it as sports. They play it like a sport, they do not play it for fun.

community = custome games
sc2 custome game community died, thats why

they play there sport on the weekend and then go back to work.

How autistic do you have to be to enjoy this? I never see it mentioned here, worth buying?
>>
>>1749239
Main gameplay itself feels similar to Starsector's combat (fleet not piloting) and customization. You tell your mech to go to a waypoint, fuck shit up, and see if the reactor's overheating or not. The logistic is more dungeon crawler-ish. I've seen it described as classic X-COM, but not really even for the aesthetics.

Honestly if you're frequent /vst/ player, it's hardly autistic.

do you watch grubby? that is how wc3 is played.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohXuabJfF_0

when i was 12 and played this game back in the day. i did not play it at all, just did custome games. i thought the game was cool with heros. when looking bad, hero suck in rts as they are over powered(the only thing that matter) and normal units become support.

creeping is just a race to get max level of hero units

the biggest pro move in wc3 is to suronde your opponent with 4 units. did not know this until i saw grubbys video. like 25% of all tactic is to suronde unite with 4 other units.

wc3 is meant to be "squad game" rts
and sc2 is meant to big ball of unit rts
kind of.

EB port is mediocre. Last I checked the uploader cared way more about making a new campaign on top of EB, and both suffered as a result. It doesn't even incorporate the new stuff made by that one eb submod

The established lore is three different stories. Meaning: there is none. On one had, there is the original (ha ha) plotline that's just adaptation of Jeschke's "Last Day Of Creation". Then there is the plotline of the early development game, distancing itself from the source material. THEN there is late dev plotline, when they've realised they are 3 months behind the schedule and shit has to get cut and condensed. Those are effectively three different plotlines for the game.

This shit is hilarious because I just realized I've been playing against turboshitters abusing an OP race all this time. Not only that but Terranfags are easily the biggest bitching crybabbies in the history of gaming.

You should be a P player
You'll have fun winning whilst having 60 APM at Masters 3, you'll get into semis in tournaments by knowing just one build order, you'll get to experience the ultimate army comp - the deathball.
You''ll still get to whine about not winning IEM or GSL or whatever.

Would this annoy the shit out of you or would you not care? I know that there are some games where they make it a pain in the ass to delete buildings, so maybe that would also be an option. But throughout history, they were more likely to let old buildings rot than to tear them down.

When I get to them (the people I play don't let matches get that far, they are sweaty SC2 players) I usually have two, on hold position at my base. They shell anything that gets too close for comfort and in some maps that can mean my half of the map. I like running around with Chimeras a lot, they really are the workhorse of the army, supported by a lascannon HWT or two.
It works more times than I care to admit, only Necrons give me trouble, everything with morale breaks before it becomes an issue.
The command squad is also important and I've seen players do incredible things with them, especially with psykers, but personally all I can muster is 4 priests and spam their ability that makes the command squad not take losses for a few seconds. My use of psykers is their passive detection and stunning vehicles with Curse, very reduced.
