Me neither - for the same reason I have no interest in this game. Learning curve too steep, not enough patience to get good, so no point in playing.
Funny how I grew up in the Atari and NES eras when games were generally so much harder, and I loved them, and yet now I have no patience for hard games.

I've got Company of Heroes, that one does it for me in the RTS genre. Besides, someone mentioned to me the following.
It is probably the game with the best animations ever, it looks like the guys on the field are alive. Facial expressions (attacking,looking for cover/dieing), idle animations (looking around/checking weapon/scratching themselves XD) It is all there and much more, making the game feel more lively...[/quote]
Not to mention the funny idle remarks like for example insulting each other, the other friendly/enemy teams and the commander (player), for instance. Most games lack these things, although HL2 does a good job at facial animation... Only thing that might be annoying is the shooting at each other naked gun style <img src="http://members.home.nl/m.borgman/ns-forum/smileys/rolleyes.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" />, but it does have it's charm...

I've heard SC2 might be worth it just for the campaign.
Dunno. I'm so behind on my games I might as well wait until I HAVE to get it for a LAN party or it drops in price and finally reaches the top of my queue. I barely just made it to Landsmeet in Dragon Age. And I need to play ME2. And other stuff.
Really though games are starting to fall out of my life as a major past time. They are secondary to being social vehicles now. Although I guess that was the real reason I got into games originally, to have stuff to talk and play with others.
It's all for naught, Valve is making a DotA game! <a href="http://kotaku.com/5608762/rumor-valve-releasing-warcraft-iii-mod-as-full-game" target="_blank">http://kotaku.com/5608762/rumor-valve-rele...od-as-full-game</a>

I'm currently playing Udyr, on a non level 30 account, which is hard.
Since udyr is a jungler and you can only really start to jungle if you're about level 25 with a couple of runes in, I can't really do too much right now. Maybe I switch to singed in the meantime.

Does a 9 day gap also make you twitchy? ;)

I wasn't really attached to the old style, and the new style seems close enough, but it still just doesn't quite hit me the right way. I'm displeased with it but can't say why.

I got pwned by you? :p
Unlikely! but I gots you added, I think. Haven't been able to play lately though...

As I said, I can't seem to add you!
Try adding me. SN is obvious.
I've been having fun w/ Amumu recently. Especially if you have someone else with an AoE ult for ult stacking.
"Natural Selection 2" ( both caped and lower case letters - as written )
