I found Team Liquid when I was looking for a forum to learn about Starcraft II. I found Starcraft II watching youtube VODs of Halo 3 - seeing as this was 2010, during beta, and H3 was still alive, this whole RTS thing was new to me. I remember watching a game where tanks were sieging the top gold of metalopolis from the watch tower, with vikings in the sky (Beta TvT lol) and going, "woah, this is NOT halo."

Since then, I actually bought the game a few weeks on launch, messed around, learned how to play a little bit, on and off. I picked Protoss, I remember, because it was the only race to not have to sacrifice a worker's mining time to make buildings. During what was left of 2010, when H3 was dying and Reach came out, and blackops was launched, I played very sparingly. I was in my junior year of high school and I wasn't used to the workload, so I blew off homework and played xbox like always. When I realized my grades weren't good enough, I made a choice to quit xbox for the first half of 2011 and focus on studies. Naturally I found video games to replace that - LoL and SC2. Since then I haven't really played shooters a lot.

Hell, I remember I enjoyed watching SC2 so much I shifted my sleep schedule around watching GSL for an entire semester. After that I started losing my passion and went back to a more normal teenage schedule (as in, what sleep schedule lol), but I still try to watch what I can.

I made a good friend, OmniEulogy on TL, by making a blog, learned how to play protoss, got into diamond from bronze in about a month and a half, and stopped because AP testing for my junior year was coming up. I said i'd play in the summer. Senior year came and I was still floating around in diamond, playing games here and there. One day I said "fuck this shit" and smurfed, played terran and got to diamond as a terran. Then i said ok fuck this I'll random on my main account. I got demoted and I still haven't been playing, really.
