I've this game and my playtime with sc2 got lessened because of a  crushing 8 in a row defeat. Not only that, one of the matches I already practically won, then the opponent like complimented me and started asking how I play. Then I stupidly started to chat and share tips, he proceeded to build his army and then crush me.

That was the trigger point. Crushing 8 streak loss and one of them was personally humiliating.

Now I play on and off, but only when my friends invite me for team. Currently absorbed with magicka, with what limited time I have for gaming in the first place.

This is why I dislike SC2, you need to actually put time into learning the game. Not just playing, you need to watch replays, commentaries, read online to the point where playing SC2 is a huge time sink.

It's not worth playing MP that need so much time poured in it. It's not like you can play other games at same time because you need all the time you can get to learn one game.

Is it worth it? Not for me because there are other great games out there to enjoy and SC2 is not the only game out there. 

I probably won't buy HoS as the MP would still be the same time consuming deep MP.

i dont think watching commentaries or readings are essential, replays though are necessary if u wanna know the details inside out. u only need to actually put time into thinking about the game. The pros replays that u watch, some1 have to create the strats in the 1st place 

SEA link to KOREA is the best!

Low Ping and Playable!
