To me, the series reflected alot about progamers and their lives. Seeing Nal_Ra struggle to just be on par with the other gamers gave me this realisation that progaming is actually a really tough life. You may praticing for 10 hours a day and everything goes good for you in practice. But when you fail so perform during your live because you can't hold your nerves, everything that you've practiced for becomes irrelevant.
I've played SC myself for quite a while now and even as its not my livelihood, it can become really frustrating. The reality of it all seems like its a really lonely road.
The series (I'm assuming) had an ending on the 11th episode that Nal_Ra was going to be enlisted into the army just a few days after his qualifiers. I could really relate to him about his feelings on going into the military and yet having left so much to accomplish. When I entered into the military, it felt as if I had left so much behind. The much more free and less strenous life that I had lead before made it all the more hard. Much more for Nal_Ra himself where he owes so much not just to himself but his fans and family that have followed his actions faithfully through all these years.
I've only got 4 more months to go before I'm release from my liability of service in the military and indeed time flies. I have come a long way. Yet in my heart, I remember Nal_Ra who is now in the military and my sincere prayers and hopes for him that his dream will not be over. Two years is a long time but not long enough to destroy our dreams and goals.
Nal_Ra fighting!
