3) someone people already invested time in a game that, since day 1, is about building your base to max.
3) even an engineered base takes time. SC doesn't give a manual out when you start saying "hey here's a strategy called engineering wanna try it?" Some people don't have that time and this game takes YEARS to play.
4) engineering gives a technical advantage over someone and not a skill advantage. It's like playing Starcraft against someone but you get no upgrades out of the armory or engineering lab.
5) if you want to play an engineered clan against and engineered that should be okay, that's skill against skill.
this statement ignores the time it takes to build a base, the way other people want to play, and how the current matchmaking system creates matchups which are not about matching skill to skill.
