Whats up TL ? Future pro Starcraft 2 Terran here. Well future Tournament player.

I have time to play 8-10 hours a day and more some days and frankly I need to spend that time doing something I enjoy instead of going out and getting in trouble. 20 years old and I have been in more trouble than I can remember. Somehow I was never arrested maybe some day I will blog about my past its actually fairly interesting although many things are embarrassing. I'm not planning to make money off of Starcraft. What I really want to do is compete. I played console games for years like Socom 2 online with clan wars and loved the competition. Loved training/preparing for a Madden Tournament then competing and winning.

Unfortunately I never had enough for a gaming PC and it makes me really sad I never got to play Brood War. I know everyone is going to tell me I have no shot at succeeding but frankly thats welcome as well. The more motivation I have the better. I'm gold right now but competing well with diamonds in TvT and PvT ... my ZvT is what needs work. I plan on getting lessons from every pro I can ... lord knows I could use some of their SC wisdom.

First things first ... is ShooToutS a horrible name for a RTS even a Terran ? I'm guessing yes. (doesn't refer to FPS actually shootouts in football/madden) I need a new name.



eventually I am going to stream but in the meantime I will be posting some first person VoDs and replays so if anyone wants to tell me how horrible my mechanics are in the VoDs and what I need to improve upon appreciated

Thanks for reading


edit: also thanks for all the pros for the great games I get to watch, Day 9 for the daily, Artosis for his SC2 cast of Idra vs Boxer on youtube getting me into SC2, and Temp0 for the When I'm Grandmaster song always good motivation.

heres the link to Temp0s song

I have series of frightfully clever and unique name suggestions that I have always wanted to use, but on account of my already having a name, I was not able to.

I also very much like Temp0s song, which you quoted! Pro-tip, if you just put the URL without the &feature=player... nonsense, the video will auto-embed on TL!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.

I have WC3 and BW installed ... just need to take some time to play them. For some reason I can only get BW to work on ICCUp and you can't play single player through that. Though I'm afraid when I play Brood War I may never want to play SC2 again.
