Ive had this game for awhile and I just started venturing into the online capabilities of it. I was very surprised. Although there are a few ways players could abuse (very few, really) it seems pretty solid for online gameplay. What's cool is if you have someone over at your house they can play too. I think we should have 1v1 and 2v2 ladders and if those get really popular, 4v4 ones also (for those of us blessed with Multi-Taps)
