I want to play this, but I'm afraid by the time I get into it, everyone will be lightyears ahead of me in talent.
Actually it's the sort of game that even totally skillless noobs can have fun and be good at, and none of us are that great.
It's more tactics than combat finesse that wins matches, and there's no 'be-all-end-all' tactic for each map because the game's balanced enough that pretty much anything can be countered (except Jester + Sarevok combo, hohoho)
besides psyburn is terrible if you learn the 'shoot' button you're instantly better than him
