I follow the Tao of Noob.

I fear no player. I lose every time, what's to fear?

My troops have mysterious ninja abilities. They may suddenly disappear during combat.

He who sits quietly by the river, eventually see the bodies of all his enemies floating by. So if you were wondering why I have so many stationary units, now you know. They are meditating.





How To Discover Game Imbalances


1. If someone is playing a race other than yours and beating you, his race is imba.

2. If someone beat you twice on the same map, it's imba.

3. If someone used a tactic your race can't use, it's HUGELY imba.

4. If you reinvented a strategy that was tried and discarded by the pros five years ago, and got whupped it is certainly because the game is imba.

5. On the other hand, if your five year old obsolete strategy caught someone napping, that's not imba, that's skill.

6. If in doubt, and the above rules don't seem to apply, it's all imba.

7. If you got whupped, then rematched, swapped races with your opponent and got whupped again, the map is imba. Or your opponent is a hacker.

8. Close observers of the game will notice that sometimes opponents make use of units your race can't make. This is not only imba, it's lousy sportsmanship too and the player should be blacklisted.

9. It's four minutes and thirty-six seconds into the game and you are dead already. No way that can happen in a balanced game. Therefore it has to be imba.

10. You lost and asked for help in the forums, posting a replay. One hundred and thirty-two players replied, and every last one of them, including two pros and most of the GG staff, (and incidentally also Melissa Fenkins, a blonde six-year-old girl from backwoods Tennessee) mentioned that perhaps building your main in the center of the Python map is a poor choice. They're obviously too stupid to notice the game is imba, and need to be corrected loudly and strongly.

11. You're the best player since Boxer. You have unparalleled skills and blazing speed, and your depth of strategy would make Erwin Rommel tremble. Yet inexplicably, every D- player you have ever played dropped your shorts, painted your willy fluorescent pink, then tied you up like a Christmas turkey and left your sorry ass out in the sun for the ants, then ran away laughing maniacally. There can be no clearer demonstration of massive game imbalance than this.

sweet :D work on micro tactics by being more aggressive and active with your army, an aggressive style will beat any computer in a timely fashion. (also works wonders with real people when you are more aggressive and active :D)
