time to get rekt ? Or non-"rookie" games are actually more balanced ?
I kind of liked to play alien, the rare victories were that much sweeter.

Just tried non-rookie server...♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥...everyone is on speed.

Welcome to the real game, bud! You are now on the SPEED TRAIN to the wonderful town of GIT GUD

Everything I "learned" in rookie games are false now. Holy crap. And I started to enjoy being a commander for both sides, now I feel like I would doom the teams as I start from 0 yet again.

4 spawners and sentry guns guarding the spawners is 100% ejection-worth now (just kidding, i mostly did phase gates + armories everywhere, but even that seems like bad plan now).

Alien COM might actually have it easy, as he does not impact the game that much, just play sim city and cast hallucinations here and there. The ultra drugged pro aliens just reck the ♥♥♥♥ and might just leave [BOT] to command, and jump in only to nuke at lvl10 biomass (so much fun abusive in rookie games).

Rookie only servers are never really a good representation of actual gameplay, strategies and 'the meta' form over time but rookie only servers keeps them at the earliest levels because even if a rookie learns currently accepted strategies, their influence on those servers is temporary and the next wave of rookies is back at the same level as before.

Nah, im uninstalling, ♥♥♥♥ this stacker game.

Its like playing dota, but enemy team consists of last years international winners and you have rookies from League of Legends.

You're gonna win some, and lose some. Once you cool down and come back, try out the "vote shuffle" option as it does a pretty good job at leveling out the stacks.

Talk with the veterans and it will help a lot, good communication is key to learning!

Is this community too inmature for you or something? Or are they just toxic or something?

I heard that if a young kid comes on the microphone, people will tell them what they don't want to hear and get them all upset. Some people also are ♥♥♥♥ boys (for lack of a better term) and start talking about really disgusting things whenever a girl uses their microphone.

The people who play this game really need to smarten up or they are going to have nobody left to play with. All this stacking and imaturely makes this game really unpleasant.

youre playing against people who know the maps like their nose hairs, the people that perfectly time and have the best evasive techniques for attack and defense, that know how to utilise teamwork and when to sacrifce for even a small push that will unbalance another team to distract and disrupt progression...if you only just come up from rookie and cant handle it and want to CTRL F4, then they should make rookie times alot lot longer imo...

Try to stay on servers with an average of around 1.2k hive score instead of going straight to the 2k matches. There's also a training mode that lets you train as a fade or lerk. Oh, and if you can't kill, then hit back res and structures.

The half of his post that you cut out clearly shows that he was talking about the skill of some of the remaining players being too high. #FAKENEWS
