yeah we sure can, op, as long as that thing we can agree on is that you and pretty much all of /v/ use the completely inscrutable metric of "skill" as a synonym for "how much I like this" knowing full well that it's all but impossible to quantify the absurdly disparate skillsets each of these games require

AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

>>343173768
It is. So what? Reflexes aren't skill? Aiming isn't skill then either? I played ESL back in the 1.6 days. That required skill, sure. None of that skill is needed for GO. If anything GO is to 1.6 what Unreal Tournament is to Quake. It's toned down for mainstream, kids and russians. It's for people telling themselves they don't play COD because it's AAA shit. But GO is nothing more or less.

>>343173773
Don't tell me that Quake is easy to master on a high level because it isn't and it's not just spamming rockets.

Your placement is practically backwards. I've played all the games, can confirm.

Street Fighter is a more competitive game, for certain.
But GG is much more difficult than SF4/5 in terms of design. Come back when SF has a 2f, 3-button parry mechanic with no hit-stop.
Also, all Street Fighter chars are a joke compared to shit like Eddy, Venom, etc.

randy here.

The mechanics of fighting games take some getting used too, but once you know the combos and positioning it's really just who can our predict who.

Games like SC2, there are so many mechanics to master it becomes less of an predictability game, and the more mechanically honed are going to win.

Melee is only harder because you can't just button mash
