    No other game does this too me.  I've been out of a game for like 5 minutes, but my heart is still beating super fast.
     
    Also, is anyone down to play some Left 2 Die?  I was playing it with a friend earlier, and it is super fun.

    Yes, I've been feeling it alot lately. I used to get nervous and couldn't ladder after a few games, but lately it's changed into pure adrenaline and motivation to play more/get better.
    I was especially feeling it during the last tournament even when I lost I was still feeling super-good and motivated.

    Ye, its not like other games there is that weird adrenalin feeling after a game and having to take a few minutes to compose yourself to start the next game.  
    But it makes it soo much more fun :P

    This is the only game that I have to build up the will to play.  I'll lose in Halo or Tekken with no problem.  But Starcraft is... draining

    I think it's because in fighters or shooters you just can relax and let your skills and reactions do everything while in Starcraft you have to spend so much energy on thinking really fast the entire game or you gonna lose. That's the reason imo why it is more exhausting than other games.

    I got that too, especially right after I've clicked the "find match" button.

    Haha yeah. Happens to me almost all the time. Right after I click the "cancel" button it instantly changes to a "player found! FUCK YOU!" sign.
     
    Well, maybe without the last part.

    Yeah, it's a testament of the game and the anticipation of either a) you're going to pull-off a badass strategy and win or b) you're going to get cheesed and look like an idiot. At least, B is always my fear. and causes the same adrenaline reaction.

    Exactly what happens to me. I'm starting to get over it, but it's still nerve-waracking.

    I don't allow B to happen.  If I get cheesed without scouting it in time, I quit.  Otherwise I put too much energy into it, get mad if I lose, then play worse the next game.  Even if I do manage to hold it off I still feel behind.  And I hate playing when feeling like that.

    I'm pretty sure I just played my best SC2 match ever, and it was five minutes ago and my leg is still bouncing up and down nonstop.

    It's still one of the few RTS games that are really worth buying.
