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:

I agree with you but SC2 and BW arent equal

BW is the Goat 10/10

SC2 is a 7 or 8/10

Dota is probably a better game than sc2 but nothing is touching BW

If I was a virgin, had no wife, no kids, no job (or no need for one), no car, no associates, no 360/ps3 controller connected to my PC, and no life...then this may be the best game ever

The people at the pinnacle of any profession make a lot of money. You are also VERY unlikely to make it to the pinnacle of your profesion no matter what it is. I've made a good living and had time to play games that were actually fun over the last five years. I'm good breh:win:

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:
