I have played many, many games professionally (for money) and recreationally. As it is now, this is not a wel made game. This is a VERY expensive game to play competitively and to play it for free is extremely boring. There is very little middle ground. I am able to spend HUGE amounts of time playing this game because I work for myself and I don't have to work very hard and I can safely say that this is not a well balanced game. Yes, most competitive games will have some level of having to buy in to be able to compete at highest level, but there is usually a cap to that level. No game should dictate how well you do in the game depending on how munching you can spend to buy yourself out of a bad situation. I personally can't even comprehend how anyone is willing to pay the $$$ it takes to top 100. It's pretty ludicrous.
