Is that still true? Do most players, say 1550 and up still hate AQ?
I never understood the hatred toward AQ. I still felt that the better AOM player was going to win, AQ or no AQ. I also felt that:
If you micro units against their counters better than I do, you can say you're a better AOM player than me.
Substitute:
redistribute villies onto different resources
build units in response to what oppt is making
scout
raid
control areas of the map
what did I forget?
Anyways, you get the picture. I feel that someone who does the above 6 things better than the other is the better AOM or AOMTT player, not the player who has himself better trained to hit H, V every 15 seconds or click around all his barracks or migdols better.
In my opinion, AQ took away the difference between being a better AOM player vs. being a better robot.
Thoughts?
