First of all SC2 isn't a sport.

Second of all what's incredibly unique about the SC2 community is the amount of people crying about compeition, laddering and how imbalanced the game is. So no.

I never said it was a sport in my post, (its an esport, lol) and plenty people cry rage for tv shows with bad endings, rage at football games, it certainly applys to most things.

Talk your heart away. But please don't burden me with your SC2 problems... You have to earn your cookies and milk.

Some issues are beyond our power, we can't do anything about children born with HIV. The society is corrupt and what can we do about it? Nothing except escape reality by playing video games.

No offense, but how are you any better more or less complaining about the complainers complaining?

Although the OP has a point it is a bit of a abd place to make it. The Olympics this year is costing billions of pounds to put on. Go troll the organizers of that one, with the amount of good they could have done.

OP, we are all aware of those problems. As is anyone enjoying any hobby, art, music or anything. Doesn't make us any worse human beings if we enjoy ourselves from time to time. Of course, you are aware of this fact, so this leaves only the conclusion that you are a troll. Which makes you an attention- w***e and a dick. Maybe you want to think about that now?
Also, if you sometime want to seriously discuss about a topic that you feel is relevant and should get attention, try the general forum next time.

I came here, expecting a 3 page-long post about how StarCraft is no tru esportz with analysis and graphs, only to result in 50 pages of people flaming each other whether SC2 was shit or not. Instead I get some emo kid complaining about people not caring about other people they don't know and have never seen in their life. I am disappoint.

Edit: When i wrote this, there were only 3 replies to the OP, now people are already flaming each other over whether SC2 is shit or not LOL

What a bunch of garbage ' Why starcraft has never been relevant'. Let me tell you something, life is irrelevant, in the end we are all corpses. So you might as well do whatever the hell you like doing instead of crying about shit you can't change.

You mean to say that football fans don't whine? Yeah right. They start crying and breaking shit when "their" team loses. They condone the spending of millions and millions of dollars for player transfers etc. But no, StarCraft is the only thing in this world hurting humanity. Your arguement applies to every single aspect of life. Considering you are sitting behind a computer trolling on a forum, I can only assume you part of the problem, not the solution. Hypocrite.

Children are born infected with H.I.V. with no hope for a future. Their existence is plagued by pain and disease. What does my playing and/or passion for Starcraft have to do with this? Can you replace this with my grief in multivariable calculus?

While you train 10 hours a day, you have surgeons from Doctors Without Borders whom haven't left the operation room for 20 hours. I'm just going to say very few people get to play SC2 for TEN HOURS a day.

Next time before you ladder, remember the more of the world you see, the less significant your lose/win will be. Don't throw your life away... Agreed!

What are you trying to accomplish with this thread?

Your message is unclear and probably irrelevant to the purpose of this forum.

Most of all it feels like a poorly executed troll attempt.

Not sure if trolling or just stupid. There's always something worse. Wow, talk about big news.
Now that you've realized something that people realize when they're 15 years old and go all emo, please leave. And next, when you'll hit 18 and realize why being emo about it is retarded, please don't make a topic about it.

You notice the irony of talking about this on a forum i hope. Talk about preaching from an high horse.
