You should come to realize that SC is not a repetitive game like guitar hero. You will need to outsmart and outplay your opponent. So after you master all the buildings and units in the game you should read about strategies and the art of war. This is basically chess x100 I know you're a very competitive person after reading about you and knowing u're in the show so I really do hope you prove us all wrong and be pro at it. We will need female progamers when SC2 comes out because it was really give esports a big boost. GL HF and I'll be ur first fan. GOGO | ||

I know what you're saying... but so often I see people say that it would take years to get to D+ level and that's simply not true. I was talking about knowing standard build orders, having 100+ apm, you know, C range. Most people at D/D+ level have HUGE holes in their game. It might take quite a bit longer to get to B and higher ranks, but D+ is relatively easy to master if you have any natural aptitude and some dedication. | ||

There are other vods and FPvods on nevake's channel as well if you're interested. Make sure you play like this. ![[image loading]](http://www.blogcadre.com/files/images/designer.preview.jpg) I wish you luck in getting better at the game and the most important thing is to have fun, even if you are 0-50 when you first start :p. | ||

It is our of her hands though. She relies on them for travel/gear/sponsorship etc. I gathered all of this from indirect methods so if any of this is inaccurate or untrue I will get ciji to clarify. Hopefully at least for SC2 we can have Ciji amongst us  I might be able to get her over here! | ||

Yes but she wanted it to run WELL. Have you tried playing starcraft on 56k and about a 7x10 inch moniter? I have. It is not fun. | ||

what progaming team has Rockband? no offense to starslayer but "pro rockband" is like saying "pro connect 4" I remember pandemic and eMg had a few players but you'd hardly be pro, considering you can't possibly make a living off of your winnings. I doubt there's any spectator value either, if I wanna see a good guitar player rocking it, I'll buy myself a ticket to a show ... tbh I don't see much potential for e-sports outside of the shooter/rts genres, everything else you're much better off with the real thing (ie: fighting games vs watching real mma/K1/Pride, sports games vs the actual sport, same for racing, music, etc etc). On the other hand, you can't really pit people with real guns against each other (although speedball, pro paintball, is pretty close) and RTS is impossible to re-create irl. It has something unique about it that might just make it a good spectator product. | ||

TL members for initial training and help can be found in Op IRC If no one happens to be on, harassing people on the irc channel can sometimes work as well. Good luck on the endeavors, and I expect you to surpass Inc quickly. hahahaha | ||
