EPT1.First off, I plan on providing more content for the community.
This includes streaming consistently, participating in tournaments, and maybe even writing some more strategy guides. I feel like a problem with esports in general is that there is not many interesting story lines to follow, so by doing these things I might be able to get more people interested in starcraft overall by giving them something to be interested in.
2. Qualifying for WCS
Ok, lets be honest. WCS clearly is not in a very interesting place right now, especially in the Americas region. When you turn on the WCS AM stream, you will hardly ever see a player from the Americas playing and those from the Americas that do play in WCS do not always have much story line to follow which lowers viewer counts and lowers interest in starcraft overall. As one of the few foreign terran players that stream with commentary and a webcam, I feel like I could definitely build a solid story line to follow if I could qualify for some bigger tournaments, the most convenient being WCS AM.
3.Having "fun"
You do not necessarily have fun while trying to play competitively, but it is made enjoyable because of the fans and people that watch, talk, and live starcraft. I know for sure that I would not be playing starcraft if it were not for all the people that I have affected by playing, streaming, and doing whatever else starcraft related. Even to this day, I still smile every time I beat IdrA and have people message me saying things like "oh you are bad" or "nice job beating him lol". No matter what people tell me, it makes me happy to see that people still care about what happens, even if its on something as minor as ladder. But this is why streaming is important, it can make things as petty as ladder more interesting than even the best faceless koreans playing in tournaments. I remember back when there was the Minigun/IdrA rivalry on ladder, and I remember watching CombatEX and Deezer trolling/teasing top players on ladder. Things like this made starcraft fun, unique personalities interacting while thousands of sc2 fans watch on stream was just amazing. I remember all the times I have linked my stream against pro players who stream even though I may get destroyed and people will come to my stream chat just to call me bad, but at the end of the day, those people will come back to watch them and other starcraft players because they will want to see their favorite pros wreck arrogant kids like me instead of watching them play against faceless ladder warriors. If more high MMR ladder players streamed with a mic and webcam, it would create more storylines, which interests more people, and helps starcraft.
4.How you can help
Assuming you are not trying to play competitively like me, all you have to do is enjoy the show. Watch your favorite players stream, and maybe even check through some of the non-featured streamers on Team Liquid and Twitch. Even though players, personalities, and tournaments make the scene interesting, in the end its the viewers and fans that make the scene great.
