ITT: You guess which guy just won 40 grand in a Starcraft 2 tourny

[Lawlstud]

Go ahead and guess




Brb says he probably averages 12 hours of training a day since the game came out
Brb watching him play, everything moves 10x what I would expect humanly possible
Brb making 300k+ a year from tournaments alone
Brb bangin 10/10 korean bishs (dont they see sc2 players as like national heros?)


Hint: It's exactly who you think it is

[l0v0l]

[Kapetan]

fnatic aLive

[omg_otters]

[knocklesnar]

[Strengthftw]

[StevieMe]

aLive was solid. his TvT is #1 in the world which crucially allowed him past MKP

Slightly less than the average americans yearly income for 15 minutes of playing a videogame.

Alright bro good luck with your looking down on people goals of 2012.

Gameplay:



I watched it live, can't find any english links up yet

[deltsmuch]

asian guy in the middle won

only 19 years old

[nzgs]

Can't get into starcraft at all, it's just a load of muscle memory which is why no-life asians dominate at it. It's tragic that quake live isn't the dominant esport worldwide since it's twice the game starcraft is.

you complain about the game being 'muscle memory' then you cite quake live as the deserved beacon of esports?

Yeah I watched one of the teams official "training" video. Literally 4 hours of opening practicing maximizing crystal/minute in 10 minute increments.

CS 1.6 is still the greatest esport ever

Indeed. When I moved and the only net I could get was wireless. I died a little. brb 1 second delay between every action

[QTBaker]

Terran is OP

[FatGuyPower]

thought I was pretty good at SC2 until I started watching some people on youtube.

mind=blown even at Platinum, I was only up to silver at best. Don't really play anymore.

Yeah I had long experience playing RTS, came in expecting to be diamond right off but only ended up gold, had to abandon a lot of my previous held ideas (I still picked units due to emotional value, ie, thought they were badass) and ended up just going for that strats that work. Brb MMM ball and winning within 16 minutes while protected from any rushs. Got Diamond fairly quick but its a whole different game in diamond league. Seriously stressed me out so much playing, wasnt even playing for fun anymore was just insanely stressed micro-managing every detail. Would have headaches after losing srs lol. So just quit all video games together. But it's what helped me break my warcraft addiction so thank god

vCoD>CS1.6>Quake

spot the fps retard.

btw cs 1.6 was the worst version of cs, but you weren't even a teenager when cs was good so I can't blame you for being clueless. CoD players were awful at cs, cs players were awful at quake.

Last time I checked, mental arithmetic and map control aren't muscle memory. Hand eye coordination isn't muscle memory. Quake is all gaming skillsets put together in one game, starcraft is making the same few commands and movements as quick as possible over and over again, which is why koreans dominate it yet they can't dominate any other type of game. Gamers these days are retards...

You go pick up SC2 and play it. See if you can grank out 40grand in one tournie. Just because he devotes his life to an e-sport doesn't make it any different than someone devoted themselves to bodybuilding or a sport.

same thing happened to me when i got to diamond.

what you need to do is lose some games and just play for fun.

dont stress out lol.

You have GOT to be trolling. Go play SC2 and play against this guy. LOL.
If you don't think hand-eye coordination and being able to micro/macro is some form of a skillset then you are clearly oblivious. And it makes sense you sound like the typical Quake tard who thinks their game was the best and the start of all FPS. WRONG.
