Wassup TL. I'm TedBurtle, former professional DotA player. But in DotA2 i missed the fun of playing the game, so i decided to play some other games..And SC2 got me =) Very nice game, played it before for ~1-2 times when i choosed zerg and tryed to attack with overlord (ofcourse unfortunately) so i got ZERO EXPIREANCE at game..Now i just finished 2 campaigns, and decided to stick with protoss, more pleasured mechanics for me, but still my heart with the SWARM :D So i'm messing a little with choosing zerg.
This blog started for self motivation and im looking forward to get help from the community with my start.

Welcome

Zerg is definitely the best race

But I can understand wanting to play protoss.

Pick Protoss and people will dislike you, Zerg as well but they'll secretly envy your race, Terran is fine but you'll lose. Pick wisely!

Hello! Favorite hero was and still is ShadowFiend . I played in many teams, we started almost same time with today stars like Dendi,Loda,Fear and all other pros. Played in some mix teams with them too. And some members of todays PowerRangers and Disbanded IcCUp was my pupils =) . Most of time playing i was captain/coordinator, so i know about the game too much, but guys in my games cant really do some team work with me, so it's pissing off when you trying to win and some loosers just cry and leave/stay afk and else... and now all guys that i know, stoped playing/got teams , so i did attemt at making team September 2013, I was inactive for ~1-2 years and started to train and upgrade my skills to the curent meta/skilllevel , but in public games you can't get better above some mark. Todays RANKED MM in DotA2 gives you improving chanses but you need to spend too much time to start getting better players. For example, you're good if you can manage positive winrate, but while you wining you start to get worsest guys on a planet, and you wont get higher then 55% win rate. So mine solo WR is ~52. I win 52 of 100, that means i get + 25 x 4 = 100..And by playing 100games i'm improving by 100 Rate. My current Rating is around ~4.5k and pros i think got ~6.5-7k , good amauter teams got 5.5-6k so to get at least to amauter guys pubs i need to play ~1000 games. But everyone playing so i need to play this 1000 faster then they will play 1 , and number becomes 2000. 2000 to get to guys that somehow know how to play and almost without having fun. So i play DotA2 now few times in a month when i got mood to play it =) if someone curious for my dotabuff - http://dotabuff.com/players/112962294

And last question: Hard to ansewer. I'm EDM producer myself, but i love to listen to all music. Favorites will be LinkinPark, Nirvana , SystemOfADown (rock) / BlackSunEmpire , TeddyKillerz , StateOfMind (DrumAndBass) / Distance , Benga , CaptainPanic (Dubstep) . Other genres i don't love particular producers/bands , just listen to what i randomly like.

Wassup! Belarus is between Russia and Ukraine / Poland / Lithuania / Latvia , we got our Belarus language but from USSR times everyone speaking Russian.(that's the reason why my english preety strange). If you mean our special food like , japan-sushi,italy-pizza / pasta , america - burger, then we don't have really specials. Most of our dishes from Potato, my favorite is potato pancakes with meat inside. Our capital will take WorldHockey tournament in May so maybe world will know a little more about this little country =)

Hi TedBurtle!
Welcome to TL. SC2 is super fun to play, especially once you start to understand how everything works. Good luck (and you should totally pick zerg again!)

Edit^ Today i'll even try to run a stream, dunno will it work on my machine or not. I've read that conection is more important than pc components, i got ~12-15Mbps or what the metric so i think i'll be able to run it .
