It's been a long time since anyone made a real post about the state of foreign StarCraft, and what the competitive players actually face. So we jumped at the shot to create something that we hope is respectable enough to be proud of, and share with those who don't understand (it's been spread to a couple WarCraft forums already).

It's fairly long so prepare yourself. You can check it out here: Foreign Warriors

We'd really like to make a follow-up to it and explore other aspects of the scene, so if you guys could give your comments here and maybe add input into what you'd like to see next, I'm sure we can get something created.

Is your first language not english? I thought it was written fine.

I think you should talk about rural life... and what it lacks compared to city life.
And uh.. ducks.

It's well written and has some decent content on why people actually play sc.... I guess my excuse is I'm too lazy to go buy another game. Well not really, it's because I'm a true man, as the article says.

That was nice. You guys need to recruit some Zerg players, though!

“It’s like your favorite book or your favorite shirt. You just can’t give it up”

Damn thats so true.

This is a great read and should be a featured thread.

Awesome article.

Stuff will be getting better for the foreign scene, just hang in there and everyone will eventually get their shot to be in an event for big money, other than WCG.

Everything on our site is player-created (GeNthO is a famous War3 player from back when it first was released, but he's well aware of the SC scene [he's who wrote that]).

This is actually the best article from players view. I was kinda sick of articles from non-gamers who didn't really understand the game
