Yeah, just jumping onto BNET without learning the races/heroes is a bit overwhelming, try to play through the RoC campaigns, they will help you learn which units/buildings do what, as well as hero/unit control. I remember my 1st 1v1 was quite humerous, i had no clue what i was doing and got seriously pwned. But it will come in time, just dont get frustrated with people on BNET, a good 75% of them will flame u for being new. So, do campaigns, read up on the tech trees on www.battle.net/war3/ and then try a 4v4 game on bnet to learn how ppl play. Good luck, if u want some help u can msg me sometime, i play on USEASE, acct name is "JennaJameson." <--with the period. Good luck
