I play console only now but who doesn't know starcraft. There was even a shytty Nintendo 64 port.

I owned StarCraft, insurrection, broodwar and the terran campaign of StarCraft 2. Nothing new here.

no they dont

and they play like 10 hours a day


yes they do.. EG. Stefano has made $250,000 from tournament winnings in SC2 and he hasnt even won any tournaments in the past year.

The people in this tournament have won MULTIPLE $25,000- $100,000 tournaments

thats not counting what they get from proleague + streaming

:patrice: they dont really play that much.. they spend most of their time traveling for free around the world and playing tournaments and making $300,000-500,000 a year

Since you know so much about it and its so great, whats all of this "they" you speak of? Wheres YOUR bank statements and some links to show us all how to eat? :blessed::stopitslime:

actually in video games, the people making the most money streaming are hardly the best players :umad:

the top players make their money from tournaments and their side money (still $10,000+ a month :jawalrus) from streaming

:umad:

Ignore the millions playing for free, to pretend making big money is commonplace brehs.:heh:

why you should pay attention:

1. Starcraft has been crowned the new age Chess since 1998

2. While other games might bring in more cash prize pools like League of Legend and DOTA, Starcraft is the most competitive video game in the world

3. You'll see how irrelevant those $500 church tournaments for Halo are watching this tournament.

4. I just linked you to the semi finals, so you are watching the top 4 players in the world playing. One of the players, doesnt even travel to tournaments if its only for $10,000-25,000. He'll only travel for $100,000+ tournaments :jawalrus: (his name is Rain in the tournament, he is playing right now)

5. You'll see the Master PC race in all its glory at this very moment :blessed:


Honestly, this is no diss because I'm curious. But say you meet a female not in to games and doesn't know much about them. And you let her know that you hobbies include sitting at a desk with a M/KB playing shyt like this, DOTA, LOL, etc. How does she react? Thats of course, if you actually meet women.

if you comfortable in ya own skin you can tell a female anythin if she feelin u she gonna deal with it

im not one of those people that play many games when a girl around tho.. I usually only play when the girl knock out or somethin

if she make fun of you for what you spend a few hours on a day and enjoy then you either accept that (I wouldnt) or kick her to the curb :yeshrug:

by the way, im a club host in Frisco :pachaha: I meet women :pachaha:
