Amazing blog, was a really nice read. I will have to admit though, I don't know many of the members of Dignatas, aside from Sjow and SelecT, but I will have to look up some of your games since they really seem interesting!

ahh reading this makes me feel glad i was cheering for you!

also
MLG Anaheim.. blew my mind. Not only is MLGs Open bracket system probably the hardest damn bracket to ever qualify from to date, but the crowd and the fans are so fucking awesome.


Fuck yeah!
OKAY FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE I SEE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

Very awesome blog.
I really enjoyed reading this.

Thanks for the insight in a life of a progamer, it helped me to understand certain things.
I hope you will do well in 2012 =)

Great read. I actually read through the whole thing, and I usually have a short attention span when it comes to walls of text...

highly recommend to people who just like to skim through things and read comments (like me)

Dude.. i NEVER read, almost never.. this was amazing. I wanted to read it, and it actually started a reading sparkle in me too. Im gonna go pick up and book or something now...

Nice writeup. GL in 2012! And thanks to Dignitas for supporting their players and giving them chanses.
People like you are what makes Sweden such a great SC2 (and esports) country! If you keep trying, I'll keep supporting you.

Gott Nytt År!

You told it as it is, being a progamer is about hard work, and even then it might not be reciprocated.You gotta truly love it to do it

TL:DR

Just kidding, awesome blog post. It's nice to read about lesser profiled players on top teams and how they have progressed.

Owh, so you're the dude who made some FPVOD guides on BW back then
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?
