    It could be that we’re now so used to multiplayer build orders after playing the online beta so extensively (many of the singleplayer units are not available in online competitive play) that we bypass them by default, or don’t understand their real advantage.

    Bang for buck? Check. Killer gameplay? Check. Loads of options? Check. Story, sound, presentation? All awesome. It even has a "casual" difficulty level. What's not to like?

    Ultimately these concerns are peripheral, the ranking system works and SEA Battle.net is stable and available with only the first night presenting any stability problems. What will keep you plugging away deep into the night is the engaging and at times frustrating experience of pitting your will against other players online. Read more
