To disguise who they really are. So they can practice without name recognition.

In 2008 there was a widespread cult in South Korea that encouraged parents to name their children lllllllllllllllllll or some variation thereof.

The "alpha male" of the cult was arrested a few months ago for drug trafficking but the parents are sympathetic to him and aren't changing their children's names, sadly. It's a shame such a tragedy is now being spread to the SC2 ladder, Blizzard should really be more proactive about avoiding politicization of B.net.

It's not like you put a barcode as your nickname because you want to look like a pro. If you are in bronze-mid master league you aren't a pro, so it would be really stupid to be frightened by a barcode. Most of the people do it because they don't bother to choose a nickname for a 2nd account (or another server) or they don't want to be recognized. I started playing NA some weeks ago when global play came out and put a barcode, it's incredible how many people are bashing you during games just because you don't have a "real nickname".

Lol right, it's probably way easier to type a barcode name than type whatever word comes into your mind when you create your smurf.
Nobody's buying that, admit it, you just want to look cool.
And that's fine.
