Of course they can do what they want but I’m tired of being subbed to these SC legends with their glory days plastered all over their YouTube channels just for the content to be clickbaiting with girl streamers JD been training like a beast lately especially after he knocked out from ro36 last ASL. Sea quit BW, Britney is just entartainer but he did a fuck ton for BW scene with his leagues. Calm is playing on and off, ppl watch him because he is funny. | ||

I guess it's good that the streaming platform allows for generation continuation of StarCraft despite being far different in nature to the "good old days". | ||

Some BW pros are worried about what that means for their future financially The silver lining for fans of high-level play is that multiple nightly Proleagues are on the comeback, with as many as 3 concurrent competitions happening. In the peak of the university craze, weeks would go by without any Proleagues being run. | ||

That's what getting to ro16 ASL does to you, you rose to fame! ggaemo was already a relatively popular and well-known streamer before his ASL 14 run. He has a funny dialect and way of speaking and also is known for putting in a ton of streaming hours in various games (Kartrider, PUBG, LOL, that new SC mod based on Maplestory). He was also in Britney's university, which was one of the most popular SC universities before it shut down Generally, no one is going to get discovered or famous for making Ro16 in ASL (and also how good you are as a player doesn't mean you get more views or money sadly) | ||

The 0-7 only means he was having a bad day. On the other hand, he's been one level below the top Zergs (Queen, Larva, Soma...) even before military. He's expected to lose against the top 5 Terran and top 5 Protoss these days. | ||

Plays LoL all day and wants to still join major proleague. JD needs to step the fuck down and practice for once or just go to k league where effort/ggaemo play. JD is washed up. Even scan can probably 3-0 him easily at this point. | ||

The Koreans keep track of it: http://eloboard.com/men/bbs/board.php?bo_table=pro_league You don't really need to know Korean to understand the tables, but you may want to remember the names of players as they write Kim Taekyong instead of Bisu and etc. (obviously). You can see for major Proleague each player usually get 1 million won for their team's win. | ||

Even scan can probably 3-0 him easily at this point. These Proleagues are put together informally and crowdfunded, participants are usually invited based on who's streaming and willing to play on a given night (in large stretches of 2022 no one wanted to play due to SC university content) JD is always likely to be invited to major proleague because he can bring in his viewers and funding which is usually significantly more than other players. In this way he is sort of like Shuttle, who is not as good as most of the major proleague players but gets invited a lot because he is so popular. Similar dynamic happens in the K League where they will occasionally invite popular streamers who aren't really good/active players anymore to help with views and funding (e.g. Calm, Sea) | ||
