So League of Legends is a decent enough game, but it does bother me that I've spent more time in the last two months playing a free-to-play game than I've spent playing a game that cost sixty real dollars.
LoL is also about as new parent-unfriendly as you can get (World of WarCraft being the only game less conducive to short bursts and drop-in, drop-out play) while SC2 matches tend to be, on average, shorter.
And like I said, I SPENT SIXTY DOLLARS ON THIS GAME. (Well, $40 and a $20 Amazon credit, but it still adds up to $60.)
Still, some of us have taken a vacation from SC2 for various reasons (i.e. Zerg race design feels like an afterthought, Zerg is disproportionately more difficult to play than Terran or Protoss, "IWIN" strategies like bioball, MMM (marines, marauders, medivacs), and mass void rays), but I think it's time we come back to the Swarm--err, StarCraft.
We could play pre-made team games against random people, we could play in-house team games, we could finish up that tournament we started, we could play the official Blizzard mods (Left 2 Die, Starjeweled, Aiur Chef), or we could watch live 1v1 matches.
Whatever we do, I'd like to get back to the game soon, even if I shelf Zerg as my main race and continue to play as Protoss until the expansion pack. (Seriously, Blizzard, it's obvious Terran and Protoss got more <3 during development.)
So who's with me? And when (and what) do you all want to play?
