Your Opinion on Game Mechanics

I’m interested in determining what the forum thinks about certain game mechanics relative to their playing ability. I understand everyone’s opinion is equal, and I despise how some use stats as an argument, but I aminterested in some trends. So please rate yourself 1-10, 1 being a player who just picked up the game, 10 being someone who can compete with MLG pros, and fill out the following questionairre. I’d appreciate if you were honest about your ability.

Everyone feel free to share your opinion and comment on others’ opinions. If you notice a trend, feel free to comment on that as well. Please remain respectful, and with that in mind I’ll start up the thread.
