Hello TL, it has been a really long time since my last blog, My life has completely changed as of recent and drastically changed since my last blog, I am actually doing very well now, have a lot of money, a beautiful girlfriend, a brand new gaming PC computer that i'm finally able to pay off, and I just paid the comcast bill that was unpaid for about 3-4 years ( Yes I have been attempting to stream and game regardless for years, just by using other peoples internet through wifi >_< , so desperate ) , new glasses , and the XSplit license, now I am finally able to get back on track with my gaming, streaming, and enjoying the game.

My Stream - I have been streaming basically since the SC2 : Wings Of Liberty Beta, on twitch.tv. I have 217+ followers and growing and now finally have the means to stream properly without the internet cutting out every couple of minutes, or the lag being unplayable, which made for some extremely frustrating nights. Now that I have nice internet again ( it's pretty random but most of the time 20+ mbps DL , 10+ mbps upload. ) So it is perfect for what I am trying to accomplish on my stream, which is give free coaching, commentary, in depth analysis, and high definition stream quality.

Right now I am able to stream in HD at 1280x720 and I will be changing to medium settings I think, if it is not to distracting for me. (Lowest settings seem to have the least amount of distraction for me). I am working on now getting a new overlay made for the stream and figure out some nice addons for the viewers, like the virtual keyboard, which I have not yet figured out.

StarCraft 1 / 2 - StarCraft 1 will always keep a close spot in my heart , but I have once again become extremely motivated to reach my goals and dreams of becoming a pro gamer in SC2, and I feel that my ability and chances are a lot higher in HOTS than they were in WOL. I feel like I have improved so much just because of the different mechanics of HOTS. I love BroodWar and I wish the best for the foreign BW community and I hope that it still continues to grow with young players wanting to experience what StarCraft was and used to be at one point in time. I actually think it is a great experience for any SC2 player, to go back and play BW for a few weeks or months even to get a feel for how StarCraft began.


You never really realize how much lag effects your play untill you are lagging like crazy, and have the feeling that you lost the game just because of the terrible lag spikes and game delays at important parts in the game. And also playing SC2 with lag makes it much less enjoyable, once I was able to sit down and play SC2 with no lag, it felt almost like LAN, and I was overjoyed.

I am a top masters Zerg in HOTS right now but I do dabble around with Protoss and Terran at masters level, as well since beta, I was GM in the beta and was becoming a pretty popular not featured stream during the beta, I hope that my stream can once again gain some viewership and people can get enjoyment from my play and stream. I have a kind of unorthodox and "My own style " of Zerg, I have always played this way, I rarely watch others play, but I do admit I will read strategy section on TL as often as I can. I really love to give analytic talks about StarCraft and I love to "Theory Craft" , I feel that I have a very in depth understanding of the game.

Life..... - Life has been crazy as hell...I have been grinding hard in order to get back all of necessities out of life that I used to have, I went 4+ years with a bad prescription on my eyes and won't do that again, really caused my vision to get worse and also makes it a lot harder to game when you can't see properly, got new glasses in yesterday and can finally see again which is a beautiful thing.

I had an outstanding ComCast bill of 365 dollars I had to pay to get everything turned back on, and all the past bills paid to get it turned back on, but now my father has TV to watch again and I have internet to enjoy.

Before I took a short hiatus I had one of my stream viewers finance me a brand new computer for which I was hoping to use to go pro in HOTS, it is a CyberPower PC, the same brand that they used at MLG Colombus Ohio last year, except just a newer model of CyberPower PC.

I have been dating my girlfriend now for almost a year and she is my goddess, I am deeply in love with this girl and feel like she was really an angel sent to me by god. It sounds crazy but when you meet that perfect person for you, i'm sure you would feel the same way. I've never met such a good, caring, loving, sweet , honest and amazing person as this, and she really helped me open my eyes and change me as a person, make me a better person, and start taking better care of myself.

Depression is a real bitch, if you have ever felt depressed or suffer from it I am sure that you understand, I don't think I suffer from depression but I was just going through a depressive state in my life that lasted about 5 years, and I have just come out of it and I feel amazing now.....Sometimes you just have to realize that it's not everyone elses fault, but its your own fault for where you are in your own life, if you want a change get out there and grind hard untill you have what you want / need out of life......thats what I did and now I feel like a completely different person...

The Dream.... - Ever since I got serious into BroodWar, when I began watching BW Proleague, I had the dream of becoming a pro gamer, but it didn't start there. I have been gaming since I was 2 years old, started on the regular nintendo, then SNES, then N64, and then PC. On the PC I started with WarCraft, WarCraft 2, Starcraft, WarCraft 3 , Back to BW, then SC2. I have never really fully committed myself 110% to SC2, but I am ready now to do this.

I have never really done commentary and analytic talk on stream with WebCam and Mic 100% of the time, but now it is time because this is what I have always wanted to do, on top of helping others for free I will be able to help myself as well because speaking what im doing in game actually helps me keep on track of what I am doing while I play.

I haven't been streaming as much as I should have been as of late because girl keeps me busy, but my girlfriend now understands that I want to take SC2 more seriously and shes fine with it, she will even chill and watch while I stream and doesn't care if nerds see her on the webcam, but she just hates trying to watch StarCraft because she says it makes her feel stupid, because she doesn't understand it at all. lol.

From now on I will be fully devoted to SC2, you will hear about or from me again. I have a reputation which was scarred from BW, but this reputation will no longer be tarnished anymore, for a storm is on the horizon, and you will all see my true colors in the near future, you will truly understand.....Terrans and Protoss's will fear me, for I am GGzerG.

Thanks for taking the time to read if you did!

I agree with the above poster. Since you titled this thread "Got my life back on track"

I hope you continue to find success and don't let starcraft overtake you if it does not work out. It's possible that starcraft could cause u financial problems along with girlfriend problems.

Cheers tho!

Oh no I don't mean it's like my goal in life to be a pro gamer , just my life is back on track and so I can focus on other goals I have, I don't expect even if I achieved becoming a pro gamer to be able to financially support myself only through gaming, it's just one of my dreams i've always wanted to accomplish. Thanks for comments

There are a lot of people who don't think you can do it, and who will try to tear you down. I'm not one of them. I think you can do this, and I hope a gaming house picks you up soon.

Happy for you man. Depression is a bitch that brings you up and down and at the end leaves a bad taste. Just drop any non-constructive stresses, enjoy life as it is and go for it bro~

Do you poop in front of her?
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.
