... keeps raving how WCIII is so good and all. He use to play sc as well, but got brainwashed by the WC3 community.
Sometimes i would tell him "Dude wc3 blows, get back on SC." But then he would say "WarcraftIII has more strategy than Starcraft. They've got spells, heroes, more units, more races, etc..." And all that.
How do i make a counter argument against that?
Sure Wc3 is your more fancy, possably more strategic, and newer. But think of how pwng SC was before it came out.
WarcraftIII to me is just like LOTR made into 3D starcraft/Warcraft.
Say its more challenging to complete tasks that can be easilly done in the WC3 editor in StarEdit, but its twice as rewarding. And its that challenge that makes the exceptionally good map makers better than the regular map makers.
Of course what I said makes no sense, but it sounded good.
When all else fails...
Tell him/her to

him/herself.
Wow, this cold-medicine makes me say odd things...
But I don't have a cold. O_O
Just say "Ѕс Іѕ тзн рωиżояѕإإ ئ٥ рłάч ׀т‼"
Umm, nm don't say it like that. the symbols (least for me) reaaranged themselved... I press the right key and the cursor moves left

'Ya know what?
Know.
I mean no.
Haha.

Rexy... your scaring me... 2nd post that is messed up like that...

Hmmm... i've seen maybe only two possible counter arguments, but both which could be easily countered back again or would be void.
Any others?
Yeah, abruptly change the subject and hope they wont notice.

lol You could say like how the Starcraft graphics is more refined! and not like cartoony!
But then again...we all know thats not true.
They even got funnier phrases when you click on the units over and over.
My favorite one is the priests.
"Remember Magic is not for everyone. It is only suitable for a select few. Side effects are (I forget them)."
At least in StarCraft, you don't have to worry about TEH UBER HERO!!1111 ahnillating an entire army.
And SCs story line is 10x better.
It really depends what he likes more; the World Editor pwns Staredit.exe so if he likes UMS you can be sure he stays in WC3, but if he likes melee... usually I'd say Starcraft is better but with all the money maps and that sh!t today... eh... start playing WC3 with him and get dedicated to it as well, that's the only option.
If you can't beat the enemy, join it.
If you can't beat the enemy, start nasty rumors about them and influence public opinion... tell him WC3 causes acne or something.
WC3 uses more HDD space. pwnt.
WC3 has higher sys reqs. pwnt.
StarCraft is more realistic.
StarCraft has TANKS!
On this computer, Wc3 has worse graphics than SC. I have like barely the minimun req. so I have to have everything low as possable...

EXACTLY!
SC has better hacks.
SC has a larger organized mapmaking community.
WC3 uses more CPU and ram.
WC3's World Editor uses more CPU and ram.
Okay, dont worry. What he'll do is one day he'll randomly leave battle.net for 10 months. He'll come back on, on StarCraft. Then he'll hate(well.. dislike) Warcraft III. The End.
How do I know this? Im just like your friend.
I rondomly left Battle.net for 11 months. A. because I got sick of it. and B. because 1.11 screwed my interent up.
Yes, he probably will crawl back to StarCraft.
