Is there a FTA?

Is there a FTA?
I've checked my records and I've been first player 18/55 games, so basically only 1/3 of my games am I first player. I assume this is because I tend to start games 1 or 2 at a time, and thus I can't take advantage of the queue stacking that some people can do when they start lots of games at once.

Do people feel there is a FTA? I haven't really felt very disadvantaged on most maps as second player.

In fact, I feel that sometimes second player has the overall advantage, because for instance, if you keep playing the same people, you might recognize a strategy they deploy as first player. But since they don't know who they are going to play, they just have to pick a strategy, not knowing who they are playing against.

I know on single spawn maps, first player has a 1 unit advantage, but with the 8 wit second player start, the second player can usually bring out a special earlier if they want to, or if they don't want to, they often can attack first. Even at a 1 unit disadvantage, attacking first often wins

"Love is patient, love is kind....It does not dishonor others, is not self-seeking, is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 1st Corinthians 13:4
