I laughed so much at the video. Immediately put it on facebook, I have already some golden comments.

Has he played in any big tournaments? Why haven't I heard of him until now? If he's as good as you say, I would love to see him compete for money and not just for glory or whatever it is he's going on about.

Athene is an actor, he's a good video game and poker player. New accounts aren't that hard to win on especially if you tank your placement games.


I'm hoping he's actually good and plays in a tourny or two for fun.

This is extremely impressive, but yeah I think it's more likely he paid someone.

I mean think of it; that would explain why he wants the others' subscriptions. The more subs, the more money! So it's sort of like a business.

But I wouldn't say it's not possible; ever heard of a genius?

The final battle in the first game was not jaw dropping, it was an archon toilet.

So, i'm not familiar with this player - but does this player have any major tournament wins? Does he have any tournament wins? Did he try to qualify for any tournaments?

It's hard to consider a person the best protoss in the world until they prove themselves in the tournament realm, so enlighten me on his accomplishments please.

If he's good, he'll win something--its as simple as that.

Personally, I think if someone's aspiring to be the best player in the world, they're going to have to go to Korea. You can't lay claim to being the best protoss in the world without having ever faced your closest contenders.

The only way I would believe it's him is if he had actually been playing SC2 for some time now and he bought another account to get more attention. If you look like you dominate the game in less than a week it's much more impressive than simply being in master league after stomping your way through plat and diamond.

I assume it is someone else playing for him, but nevertheless 43-1, 46-1, 49-1... whatever it is... is quite impressive. The only thing is, it will get much harder to keep such a good record in masters.

On a related note, you can hate on him all you want or call BS, but I think this is some good entertainment. He knows how to start interesting controversy and now I want to follow up to hear the story.
