Blizzard was nice enough to give us 18 beta keys to give away at the end of the week! Here's how to win one.
Create a cheerful for one (or more!) of the players listed below. On Friday, September 14th @ 1pm ET we will select 1 entry per player and award the winners each with a Heart Of The Swarm beta key! Submit your entries in this thread! (use the [ img] tags)
That second one is absolutely brilliant. I think it is more gramatically correct to say "It's SortOf boring being at the top" rather than "It's SortOf boring to be at the top". As you stay in the gerund (boring) tense that way rather than using the gerund (boring) and then the infinitive (to be). I could be wrong though. In any case I fucking love the idea behind it.

English isn't my first language, so I just hoped it'd be correct. Generally I'd have said "Being at the top is SortOf boring" but that wouldn't really have worked with the image. (My first idea was "It's SortOf lonely at the top", but it, too, didn't work that well with the image. I searched for a different image initally ^^) And "It's SortOf boring being at the top" sounded a bit more wrong to me, so I used the infinitive. I did a quick search on google though and it did find a few entries with "It's boring to be...", so I hope it doesn't sound that weird. Unfortunately I forgot to save the picture before adding the text, so I can't change it anymore. (And I don't want to remake the picture all over again)
Since they will pick a winner per player "cheerful'ed", you better make cheerfuls for the less famous ones to increase your chances for those HotS beta keys.
saw my mate, the other day, said he'd seen the white nestea, i asked my mate, who is he, he goes by the name of lowely, lo-ohwe-ly lo ohwe-ly, he goes by the name of lowely

Actually my brain did read "Sheth" somewhere, I really don't know why... so I did one for Sheth and gonna post it anyways. Sheth always reminds me of a hero from my childhood...
GO GRUBBY! <3 You are my inspiration to becomming a pro starcraft 2 gamer! Love for you and Love for Protoss! Goodluck in the WCS Europe, I will be cheering for you.
I've worked all afternoon on this, so that Orly gets one cool poster! He's by far Belgium's best representation. Can't really find many good pictures of him on the Internet, but this is definitely my best shot... Go Orly! We really look forward to seeing you play again! I loved to see your play back in the days, and I hope this poster will cheer enough for you! :-) I might even bring it to some events. GLHF!

HAHA! This one is my favourite one so far :-D i really hope u get one of the keys, this one is so well made and so fckin funny :-D really nice work, well done! ^^
5xAny... ...is not a fucking player. Way to write this in literally the most confusing way ever, Kennigit. Srsly, who the fuck puts "5xAny" one word as part of a list of players?
Thinking about it now, I feel pretty stupid. Hopefully someone at least got some good laughs from my stupidity.

best!
+1
Hope you guys like mine too :-) Grubby Fighting! Really need HoTs and put a lot of effort in making Grubbys Face fit in the drawn Style of the Picture.
This approach is an approach to racial. It is very sad to see
How is this racial (u mean racist?)? Please explain! It makes fun of Osama Bin Laden.... Dude, get over it and dont't take everything so seriously! You can make fun of Jesus, white people, etc. I don't care... i laugh if it's funny. BTW... it's really funny
This approach is an approach to racial. It is very sad to see
Eh.. That you even think this is racial is more sad. Some people really can't handle jokes.
Yeah this is sad indeed, probably media fed people who see racism everywhere everytime they see a ben laden picture or something related to the 9/11.
Jokes? Yeah. 9/11 was a JOKE where thousands of people died.
Bin Laden was a JOKE who killed thousands of people.
Iraqi 'liberation' was a JOKE that costed thousands of lives of American soldiers and HUNDREDS of thousands of Iraqi CIVILIANS. (and almost bankrupted USA)
Because of jokes like this 95% (it's an exaggeration) of non-muslims see ALL the muslims as terrorists and have prejudice against them.
If the said picture wasn't Bin Laden or 9/11 but something that mocks obesity in USA or handegg-not-football, (or iNcontroL's buffness getting mixed with health problems etc.) picture, we'd see who can't handle jokes.
When making the jokes: 'cmon dude it's just a joke'
When you're joked about: 'holy shit lets invade their country'
Get some standard.
TL;DR: Racism might be the wrong word to choose there, but these are sensitive matters and shouldn't be joked about.

haha, nice. However, you should make a cheerful out of this, if you want to win a key. + Show Spoiler +
Here goes another one, this time for Ziktomini, since hes british and all, so a quoting from Harry Potter , edited of course comes handy" xD coudn't resist
dude, 5xAny is no player. (^_^) It means a cheerful of any player can win one of the five keys.
5 to any who is participating in the tournament i would assume. There are a lot of players at WCS that are not on that list. Why would you make a cheerful to support a player at a tournament when he doesn't participate in it? That's like going to a Dortmund - München soccer match with a Glasgow tricot. I mean sure you can but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. :D

dude, you are right. For some reason, I thought they meant any player at all. But, it wouldn't really make sense. Why am I so stupid?

Haha, i always wondered who's behind Death's Mask in Darksiders :D now i finally know it was Stephano the whole time :D :D :D Protoss should run away when they see him at WCS
I don't have the photoshop skills to pull it off, but I really think there is untapped potential in Photoshopping Nightend's face onto Bane from the new batman movie. They both have sweet voices and pictures like this have so much potential if you replace the top frame with something clever (maybe involving his first opponent Thorzain) and have Nightend's face shopped onto bane in the bottom frame.

I actually can enjoy jokes about nazis were even more died. Also, I'm not American, and I do find Incontrols buffnes (wich has been in a cheerful in this thread already) funny. Even if I didn't find it funny, I wouldn't get upset about it.
And no, most people don't want to invade countries after a joke. However, some people can't handle a joke and burn down embassies and kill innocent people because of it, You are right, racism is not the right word to use, and if you can't handle a joke about a sensitive matter, that is your problem.
Making all these for my favourite players Goodluck for Europe WCS!
I made all these all by scratch including render all the pictures from scratch, creating the background image, etc. It was really hard afterall I've stop using photoshop for years! And for this beta key, I would hit myself if I didn't go for a try.
Its terrible I know, but its the best i could come up with on Paint with only a few hours before i go to sleep haha, and i would kick myself if i didn't try for a key .
