No he doesnt. yes, he does. | ||

Just go to NA GM and pick a player and he will place better than Maximus in any tournament he enters. If NA teams keep doing this (it may be beneficial to them now) there won't be a scene in 1-2 years time. | ||

Maximusblack even invited over desrow for a week to teach him some new build orders n game knowledge. Few weeks later hes back to fourgatin every PvP cuz he doesnt win games otherwise.I even remember max gettin frustrated n mad at desrow for trying to help him while he was playing. You dnt curk out on someone whos trying to help u improve your game bro! I do love maximus as an entertainer though. Hes a funny cool guy, but i just wish he would actually put some effort in gettin better with his gameplay. N a huge pet-peeve.... STOP TELLING PPL YOUR HIGH MASTERS! so disgraceful to other high masters. | ||

STOP TELLING PPL YOUR HIGH MASTERS! so disgraceful to other high masters. well to be fair, almost everyone who is in masters says he is "high masters" because there is no fixed definition for that term :D I find it hilarious and annoying at the same time  rank 1 master on the server is "high masters" despite having top 50 GM mmr and also 800 points masters players are "high masters" according to them hahaso don't shit on Maximus for that I guess when so many people do that.. I am sure you can find something else to critizize him @guy 1 post below me, lol do you really think to stream all day long and 4 gate is harder than to actually play the game at a high level? come on... | ||

A random NA GM player won't invest the time, money and effort MaximusBlack has into the community. Criticize his gameplay if you want, but don't take away the fact that he's literally dedicated his life to this game and it's community. | ||

AND PLSS DONT! Most be awesome oppotunity for MB, and he should go make the very best out of this, but Quantic pff i had expected more pro attitude towards the game than this. | ||

If NA teams keep doing this (it may be beneficial to them now) there won't be a scene in 1-2 years time. I think he's the definition of being good for e-sports. Let me preface this all by saying - most of my exposure from SC2 comes from Maximus Black. I owned SC2 before seeing him for the first time, but didn't actually play it or anything. I'm not a hardcore player. I'm silver league, gold on a good week. And I don't play that often. However, I love the game. I love SC2 like I love Baseball (a lot). I watch GSLs and MLGs frequently. I have favorite players, teams. I know the game and understand the units, mechanics and trumps. I understand how late game flows. Now, I'm not a marketing expert... but I expet that I'm the close to the stereotype of what people who want to push e-sports bigger want to have. People like me make the game have a large fan base. Yes, people that play the game 40 hours a week are great, but if you want to have SC2 on TV, you need a LARGE fan base. Again, all of this came from just chilling out, watching MB play games on a second monitor at home/work. I think he's great for e-sports. | ||
