FTA and 2(3) actions on first turn

[Dawizerd]

I always make a scout first thing on glitch to see what the first player has done. If he had done what you suggested, simply heal your heavy before he takes the wit space. Is he a little more developed? Yeah, but you have a 5hp heavy he's not going to tangle with for a while. I mean, in just about any turn-based game, the person going first is going to have some type of advantage. In chess, it's called the initiative, the ability to act, instead of reacting. That's why you switch sides in tournaments. But, with knowledge of opening theory and skillful play, a player playing black can often take the initiative away from white, that's most of the fun for me of playing black, looking for the gap in the opponents opening or piece placement to grab the flow in my favor.

TL: DR - I think a small degree of FTA comes with the territory, and it's part of the fun.
