Even though I may not think he is very entertaining he has many followers and he has contributed to so many charity events that he can do no wrong in my eyes. So if this just increases the eyes on Starcraft, I'm all for this! Maybe he'll produce some pretty good continent. I also think he's great, but I doubt he would be able to produce a new continent. | ||

Not gonna do shit for em in SC2 but will definatly get veiwers would be weird unless he ended up serving some sort of a specific role in the team if the news are true. it's quite likely athene would either get visibly involved in either sc2 or dota2 (which root seems to be gathering a squad for according to http://root-gaming.com/squads.php), having an internet celebrity in a professional gaming team just for the sake of his status as a "jack of all trades" sort of gamer sounds a bit too random to be a premeditated business decision. which i'd expect athene's booking to be, i can't imagine he's exactly cheap to hire. | ||

How about working yourself instead of "if i got given x i could y" nonsense? I didn't say he didn't earn it. Literally the simplest form of my opinion/argument is this,and if you don't understand it - god have mercy on your soul. He earned this by gaming yes? We all game, which means we all have exactly the same starting stepping stone. You with me so far. He decided to make videos. I didn't, I just played the game. IF it was me that made the videos (assume I made the same content as Athene for arguments sake), it was me that did everything he did, and me that got the sponsorship he has, id have learnt it as well. A lot of people make videos that are entertaining to watch. He just happened to be "the one." I personally find other people's videos more entertaining. We all had the potential, which is what he says otherwise. His character says he is the best, he is the only one capable making the videos and being a gaming celebrity. I don't like his character, and trying to disprove his character. I don't care what he is like in real life, I don't know him. But pretending he's better than everyone else in his videos? Whether its character or not, I don't like that sort of attitude. | ||

Well if you don't think they deserve a decent respond. Then just don't respond at all? You realize that you might get temp banned for that post? Read the rules before posting something like that if you want to stay here on this site. | ||

And so easy to pick up, for the smart users at least.. since we have so many of those here. edit: not sure if this is a troll video or not so not sure how to respond yet. If it was just to get some people talking, them mission succesful I guess. | ||

Maybe a game like LoL would be a bit reasonable, but ROOT doesn't even do other games that I know of. | ||
