I am a horrible monster

I am horrible at SC2

I have started watching Huskys replays and some day9 replays

OH GOD

I am on battle.net

I have never played a 1v1 online yet because I can't even beat a single AI on normal yet.

Lawl you suck. What happened to, "No Atlas, I will not buy Starcraft 2 because I don't like RTS'. Now go live a life of loneliness, and eternal Rosslessness." I am paraphrasing.

Get out now before you memorize a build order.

I finished the SCII campaign, but as soon as I tried the multiplayer I got my ass handed to me. Several times. Over and over again.

I can barely scratch by on "Players versus AI" games if the AI is set to hard.  :'(

Unfortunately, you have to learn how to hit hotkeys, and memorize build orders, learn how to micro and macro. It's a whole to do. Get out now if you're okay with being bad/want to continue to produce quality RPG content.

Edit: This is what you have to be able to do in order to be good. You will probably uninstall the game and cry after watching this. I know I almost did.

If you want to see what a casual player can pull off with some practice: A goon casted two of my matches (http://livestre.am/oL5A) in the goon-run tournament (CeleryMan is me). I'm maybe 1/50th of what good korean players are. SC2 is hard, man.

well I know I will never be competitive or anything like that but I find SC2 fascinating from a game design and cultural angle. I want to learn more so I can understand it.

what

i like day 9 but i prefer husky though - shorter commentaries and I hate that day9 switches to his webcam for half of the episodes - i dont want to see nerds talking to a computer screen - i want to see vidya games

day9 comes off as a cool dude to me. I'm not as much a fan of hdstarcraft/husky. I never got the douchebag vibe from day9 him except when he casted this match as a joke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dqYxpxegrk

it's a Bo5 grudge match between two jerks on the teamliquid forums, and day9 just rips on both of them the whole time. it's p. funny. I'm pretty sure he was drunk.
