I joined teamliquid in september or october 2010 as u can see from the timing it means Starcraft 2 happened. 2011 was the best year for me and probably many other people . ( was a terran player xD) . Terran stayed pretty strong in wings of liberty just not in the very end days. My favorite player was IMMvp . I can say i am lucky . Since he turned out to be the Terran King. I loved the tastosis casting the GSLs , watched the MLGs , IEMS , dreamhacks . i became fan of TSLPolt (then) now CMStormPolt . He has been my favorite since 2012 or smth . I played Terran mostly and as high as diamond . Made to Masters League once ( some protoss cheese and some terran 1/1/1) but other than that managed to stay at rank 1-8 with the golden star . My little brother would play at high masters level. He played against some popular streamers or players . Lost mostly but won sometimes too . He was zerg. My interest started to go down just in the end days of wol when the zergs like Stephano and ST Life if u remember totally dominated . Then I played World of Warcraft for a year . Then when heart of the storm came out , i didn't feel like it and so i played like 2-3 games per 4 months something like that . Forgot about it sc2 pretty much in 2013 i can say . Used to watch all premiere tournamnets even during exams before. I remember when the MLG where SlayerSMMA defeated Losira in the finals . The one where Idra raged out in the series earlier against MMA in which he had chance. Anyway that day i was watching the tournamnet and in the morning i had a very important physics exam , The annual one. The exam went well but it were those times i couldn't let go of it .
In 2014 i got the summer holidays . I actually spent all of the 3-4 months on hearthstone . To keep pace with the streamers and pros i had to spend the $$ on battlenet ( i cant believe i did it) I had to get the naxxaramus expansion . 40 packs + 40 packs + 20 packs and stuff like that . I never felt satisfied . My cousin was a bit annoyed since i used his MasterCard and he would be busy in other things . Then my university started again and going currently . I just do the quests now and then in hearthstone.
But i don't know how it has happened. Maybe that Legacy of the Void is announced at BlizzCon or something else . I have been playing hots at like 7-10 games per week and having a lot of fun . Just got to platinum league today and i am fine with it . It doesn't seem easy though after a long time.
I just watched the ForGG series vs Life in finals recently and i am super happy for him . Also i find Polt doing pretty good every year . He thinks he's not doing enough but its more than enough for his fans.
Doing the usual banshee opening for TvTs , reactor hellion opening for zerg and expo into stim medivac for protoss. ( still dont know the deal with the zealot stalker and mothership core , it gets me everytime it comes).
But having a lot of fun again . I don't regret missing out on starcraft 2 for a year and a half but it's cool to be back . Also following the hearthstone scene at the same time and doing well in university .
So that's it for my first blog ever. It had to be for starcraft 2 !
Also i would like to ask how many of you excited for Legacy of the Void?

yeah i think he looked into my profile and when he checked the history and that i used to be in a higher league , he thinks this is not my main account . because these days i am on gold - platinum level..

there was a message that i wanted to post here but i couldn't find the screenshot ... i kept a zerg player on 2 bases for a while after the hellion harass worked a bit and i moved on to 3 bases . he tried to make overseers and break my siege outside but he couldn't establish the 3rd base . he raged out of the game and outside he sent me a message : " That is the full definition of Terran "" smth like that . Sometimes people let it out . Yesterday a protoss guy was raging over a zerg . i told him chill im terran , He said had to let it out .

My passion also came back a few months ago. I lost my passion due to a huge interest in Dota 2, a game I ended up playing hours on end. But all that matters is that I returned to my favourite game of all time!

I also lost interest in Starcraft and didnt watch it for a few months, and it was mostly because of the negativity in the community.

Then I tuned in a tournament when I saw that there was one on, and I instantly fell back in love, and now I dont pay any attention at all to the negative stuff in the community, and I love Starcraft more than I ever have before, I can truly enjoy watching tournaments now.

So yeah, awesome that you feel the passion again, we need as many people as we can get that love the game!

Cheers, GL & HF! :D
