No video coverage by Artosis :O


After many courage videos they've decided that artosis was bad luck


If they got Tastless and Artosis I think he'd do quite well. (NonY's first try)

Hopefully Artosis has bought extra batteries for his camera so we can get the whole day's worth of footage >.<

They didn't get Idra because he is a good player - he is obviously not.

Yeah IdrA sucks at starcraft, and its super obvious to pros such as yourself. Only reason he got to A+ was because he payed off his teammates to get them to play for him *eyeroll*


You know, there are many levels of how "good" a starcraft player can be and to me there is also a certain level of respect i have for players which is not proportional zu their skill.
Here is a graphic to explain it to you:
[image loading]


A:
Just random people playing Sc for fun on ICC. Nothing special.

B:
Those are people who are kinda good on foreigner level but do not really succeed in winning anything of meaning. People like Sawyer or Closer. You may have heard thei names or not, noone cares.

C:
These are the top foreigners, they play in their free time and are still really good. they win money with a computer game they are playing for fun basicly. The best known members of this category are Mondragon and White-Ra.

D:

Those are people who are pros in korea who sacrifice everything in their lives to play a computer game. And compared to others on their level they suck badly. These people should be ashamed of breathing the air away from people who do something in this world. They are wasting their lives in a freakin basement. they dont succeed neither in SC nor in real life.
Examples: Idra and the rest of the trash with a one or even two digit Kespa rank.

E:

This group belongs to pros who are kinda good, to players who maype appear in PL, but do not manage to win or ger somewhat far in the Starleagues.
Examples: Sea, around half of the ACE-team.

F:

Here are the real good pros. People who earn a lot of money just because they are good at something that is irrelevant in life. They really are the elite.
Examples: Stork, JD, the bonjwas etc.


This is where my disrespect for idra comes from. This and his arrogance. He seriously thinks he can make fun of foreigners who are worse than him, which is just ridiculous give the fact that his life just consists a game u can burn on a CD.

I like this graph a lot, but I have an issue.

Doesn't everyone pass through point D on their way to E & F? Some of those Ds who are "wasting their lives" are future Es & Fs.

lol @ the graph

but really, what makes something "relevant" in life? it seems you're just asserting your own opinion about computer games. what makes playing SC any "less relevant" than doing some other job? not everyone can be einstein or mozart :/
