I watched your most recent ZvT and really liked it. You have a really nice agressive playstyle. However I feel like you were far ahead when the guy decided to block your hatch with an ebay whereas you went pool first so it didnt matter. If I were you I'd cast games where its more equal or you're slightly behind at the start and still win.

Pro tip: Don't call yourself pro based on ladder, especially if you aren't even top 50.


Pritty sure he's sponsored


There are probably only <40 players who make a decent living off of (playing) SC2. Being sponsored doesn't mean you are a pro. I had sponsorships for downhill skiing when I was 16... Calling yourself a pro when you don't actually make a living off of SC is presumptuous end of story. If the general starcraft audience hasn't heard of you, and you aren't winning top tournaments and making a decent amount of cash (enough to live off of), you aren't pro, you are amateur.


Professional:
"undertaken or engaged in as a means of livelihood or for gain: professional baseball. "


Welcome to the English language.


When JEcho shows that he doesn't have another job/means of support other than starcraft, then he will satisfy that definition. Winning money doesn't make you a pro unless it is a means of livelihood as I said before and as your definition shows.

Obviously you didn't read what I posted, or your bravado is overwhelming yourself.

Edited for your edit:

It clearly states in every definition that it is for a career, or for personal gain. My cities mayor is also an orthodontist, but, he's not a professional mayor, m i rite?

So if I win some bingo games and make some money I'm a pro bingo player? Give me a fucking break, your definition states as a means of livelyhood. Until Jecho lives without monetary support from others and plays starcraft to survive he isn't a pro.

If you arrived with intentions to make money, not enjoy yourself. Yes, you are in fact a pro bingoer.

If he currently earns his livelyhood by being the mayor then he is a professional politician. Has JEcho even won any money? I guess I'm a pro too since I made 150 bucks at a local 2v2 tournament. I better make a presumptuous post in my stream thread about how I'm so pro!

You should include a little bit more information on yourself, how are you pro and what defines you as a pro? Why are you not at an MLG or at least in tournaments? I will check out the channel and subscribe though looks like a great chance to learn somethings and support another fellow starcraft II player!

He's an orthodontist for a reason. One of his professions doesn't pay all of his bills.

Edit: he's a professional ortho, and a professional mayor. That's the moral of the story.

It's clear to me that you're arrogant, and aren't even considering the definition of the word professional. You're simply basing your argument off your own colloquialism of the word. Have a nice day. I hope insulting players who are leagues in front of you gets you somewhere in the TL community.

So what we have here is..a top 100 NA player, and a bunch of low post count trolls flaming him even though he's trying to give advice to lower level players(more than likely the bad trolls).

What the hell is wrong with this picture?

Either way, I support you.

Hello Mr top 200. i have a tip for you. ----> Arrogance usually don't work well in promoting your Youtube chan/streaming.


Don't call yourself a pro unless your living is playing starcraft.

People just need to puff up their chest. You're obviously better than they are, and they're trying to convince themselves of their own worth. Tuned into your stream. :D Thanks for helping the community.

I subbed, I have alot of trouble winning my games now after the reset. I am 10 - 15 and it's kind of depressing if you keep losing because of silly 1 base all-in pushes or screwing up your zvz with a foolish drone round when you really should've made units. I really need someone like this atm.
That's the 2nd time in a week I've seen someone sig a quote from this GD and I have never witnessed a sig quote happen in my TL history ever before. -Najda
