Why Starcraft 2 [LR Threads] Rock

Hello, my name is KingofdaHipHop, feel free to call me King. I've amassed a whopping ten thousand posts on this website and keeping within some semblance of tradition (if it really counts as a tradition) I am making this post to commemorate this milestone. I've deliberated about how the hell this post will look for a while, so I guess I'll ramble about stuff before I decide that it's enough.

It's really weird to think that I really started posting a lot back in April with Lone Star Clash 3 with horrible amazing games like Petraeus vs Stephano. I'd owned SC2 for like year at that point and have been watching professional tournaments for almost as long. I was enamored by the first thing that I watched, MLG Dallas 2013, and it just gave me a source of constant joy and excitement in watching the pros battle out on the big stage. What I didn't expect to come from that is finding myself on the LR threads and getting to the point of saying shit like:

Prediction: Life will easily make his way to the finals without dropping a map. Rest of the bracket will play out relatively normally, but San turns on his god mode and slaughters JD, Taeja, ForGG, MMA, Polt, and makes it the finals. When he goes on the main stage he takes off his suit and mask to reveal that it was Leenock all along. Life 10 pools 3 times in a row but when he goes for the fourth there's a power outage and a regame happens. Leenock easily defends the 4th ten pool and wins games 4, 5, and 6 with the most amazing ZvZ ever. On game 7 he burrows his roaches on the octopus in Catallena and when he unburrows when Life's army comes he brings the Leenocktopus to life (literally) and slaughters everything that Life owns. He then cartwheel's out of the booth and picks up his Dreamhack Winter trophy as the camera goes to Robert Ohlen giving Naniwa a hug outside of the venue, both of them sighing.


Point I'm making I guess is I found something special in the threads. Lots of really nice and fun people watching and enjoying the same exciting and fascinating shit as me, being snarky little shits in their post and joking and stuff, and having a blast while doing it all. I eventually decided that I wanted to contribute back to the community and began starting to run the WCS AM threads and other NA tournament threads and I had a lot of fun helping out in such ways. (After I went on vacation a lot more people started doing NA threads too so I like to think I restored NA passion when I know in reality I didn't do anything as such). But it was a nice way where I could be helpful and give back to the community of which I've come to love.

Go KingofDaHipHop!!!!!!!!!

RIP Darkhorse and The_Templar NA has a new hero!
Exhibit A: my ego being boosted.

So yeah basically LR Threads are super duper fun and I'm glad I've found them. I'm the kind of person that when I get really into something I look for a place where I can really share that excitement with other (describing that makes it sound like something everybody does haha) and Starcraft 2 is a constant that I always look forward to no matter what's going on in my life. It's my anchor to happiness and, in theme of thanksgiving, I'm thankful for such a nice community and website where I can share this excitement and fun with likeminded, snarky guys and girls!

Obligatory shoutouts I guess. s/o to Lorning for being an actual god amongst men and doing so much shit and making all the threads and like you go man! s/o to lichter and all of his writing team for making good quality shit constantly and making me excited for starcraft. s/o to The_Templar for being an LR bro and somehow doing all those live reports on a macbook and to SGTK for also being a bro and sticking with sc2 despite other things and also we make a good team (+Scarlett too). s/o to stuchiu for being not only a fantastic writer but for somehow being like the most clever and absolute funniest person I've seen in threads like ever like holy shit your comments always make me laugh and smile. s/o to all the staff who make this awesome community and to everybody who contributes to any aspect of this website. you work very hard and I really appreciate it! s/o to literally everybody in the LR threads (I won't try to name you all because I'll forget people and be angry at myself). I love you all and please cheer for Scarlett and Rain at IEM.

It's not very hard when you prepare everything + experiment a lot with the layout.

yes. Icons depend on registered time and post count. I think shellbot has figured it out, but it's not public so newer users aren't encouraged shitposting.
Countdown to victory: 1 200!
