I know it would be impossible for me to go pro, yet even I picked up this game very quickly (possibly just from rts experience and watching and playing a little BW). I haven't played since beta but when I did, I won my placement matches etc etc. I honestly think that if you can't even get yourself up into the top league (diamond I believe it is? not Masters since that requires other criteria) just by playing casually then there is no hope in hell for you. And even if you could, there's still no hope in hell for you. Don't do something you'll later regret. | ||

GM League is only open 1 week per season, and is the top league overall. | ||

Please. Don't do it. I think you fail to understand how much this will mess up your life. I'll be blunt. You're not going to be a pro-gamer. GO TO SCHOOL! | ||

Still though, people should follow Tyler's advice about going pro. The gist of it is: Find out whether you're good enough while maintaining your current life. If you are, and you're in the financial position where you're okay to try out pro-gaming for a trial period. Then give it a go. | ||

I got to master's league season 3 while primarily focusing on school and playing max 3 hours a day. Granted, I was demoted at the end of it, but at one point I had improved enough to make it into that league while not sacrificing literally anything. It's not a smart decision. You'll probably disagree with me, but you seriously need to rethink this. | ||

TL;DR Give it your best try, but don't make it your be-all end all. | ||

I checked out his youtube channel and it does exist with him casting his own games. And he is probably in college unless he is born in December or he missed/flunked a year of school. I support you all the way as long as you understand what your getting into and what path you are taking. You are potentially screwing up your future. | ||

In all likely, OP will quit after getting sick of SC2 or getting stuck in Plat/Dia and whine about imba all day and find out he can't get any good jobs. "TL gives good advice 99% of the time, but no one listens." -Plexa according to a sig I saw the other day. | ||
