thats sc2 overrated and its rediclious what peple get sponsored..there so many better players than him. it seems like they push the game so much, coz they know soon it will be over...

User was warned for this post
I watch e-sports to see the best pro`s in a game do things that "common" pro`s could never do, and almost humiliate them. That skill-range just isn`t present in SC2. Again, I fully agree with having SC2 as a game.

You were only telling the truth DKIM I don't care WHAT Team liquid thinks. We all knew you love TLO and wouldn't mean anything harmful by it. But you don't see TLO winning as much as Jinro or Idra now do you? Who ever took you serious about the hustling bit is retarded and also believes that violent video games make a bigger impression on children than parental discipline. -.-?


Getting a little communist there TL.

TSquared doesn't win that many events any more. I haven't watched any Reach but his teams sucked last year at Halo 3 (by pro standards). But he's an icon in Halo 3, mainly on account of his personality.

Hwaseung Oz are no KT or T1 right now but the players are still on T.V. advertising backpacks.

That's not what it's about. It's because TLO is probably the most exciting player to watch in competitive Starcraft 2, probably only second to on-form Boxer.

I remember Heosat saying somewhere (on Reddit, I think) that TLAF's sponsorship of Team Liquid initially came out of a proposal to sponsor TLO alone. Say what you will about his polish and his tournament results, but in terms of being a respectable big-name entertainer who brings in the sponsorships, comparisons to Boxer are not unjustified.

That's pretty awesome. Grats to Dario, hope this gives him the confidence/peace of mind/whatever he needs to smash some MLGs!

I like SE's involvement in SC2 and e-sports in general btw. Is this new or was I just not aware pre-GSL?
Change to MY nostalgia? UNACCEPTABLE! Monkey paaaw!

Cool but TLO is still on liquid isnt he? I dunno seems weird to be representing your teams sponsors as well as your own.

This. If you guys think getting sponsorship has anything to do with skill and amount of practice you are naive

That, alot of the Halo crowd have Personal sponsors. T2, Enable, Walshy but still retain their team sponsors. They pretty much just have to put extra stuff on their jerseys do events for the companies that sponsor them and get free stuff. Like Walshy gets free Crates of Red Bull.

This isn't meant to knock IdrA in any way but SE might not want to be associated with a player commonly known for his BM; while TLO is a very likable personally and always a fan favourite.

IdrA is also fully sponsored as a member of Team EG, and Sony is a competitor with at least one of EG's sponsors in MSi so it wouldn't make any sense ;p Congrats TLO!
