February 26th a week from today Destiny has agreed to do a bo9 showmatch with the best Icelandic sc2 player


Iceland has 300k inhabitants, in total - kids/elderly included. So, make it the only Icelandic player


There's 180 of us in the icelandic sc2 facebook group, and like 100 people on the icelandic ladder.


What do you mean with "icelandic ladder"? Don't you all play on EU?


He means a page on sc2rankings that has only icelandic players

To be fair Destiny recently beat Choya in a real tournament. It's not like he's complete shit.

GL drezzi, I used to be a Destiny fan but in the last few months I began to dislike him. I also love rooting for the "underdog"

This looks like fun! Although I like Destiny, somehow I always have to root for the underdog, wich would be the icelandic player in this case obviously. So no matter who wins, I´ll be happy!

GLHF!

Do you really believe that icelandic player is underdog? Actualy destiny would be be the underdog, he is nothing but hype, altho he plays full time he havent won anythink since beta ant early days.


I don't normally write in the forums, just a passive reader. But i've seen this kinds of replies many times in different threads where players are "nothing but hype". And I'm not begging for it to stop because, really, I can't do anything about it.

But what happened to thinking rationally?

Destiny has been playing this game since the Beta, and also played SC1. Been in Korea practicing with some of the best players in the scene, and, just recently beat iNcontroL in a bo7 (source).

I'm not trying to bad-mouth drezi in any way, and he is most likely a very good player. But the probability that he would win against a signed player who does this for a living is... not so high. But I (and I believe most others do) hope for great and intense games.

Just saying... rationalize.

People reference that win a lot but I don't think it means anything. The way Choya played was just bizarre. A random Protoss Master on NA would probably play better.

You should never reference any one game. Objectively speaking the simplest and most straight forward way to get a general idea of where a player is at is to look at their TLPD -> (Z)Destiny.

TLPD ELO: 265th

IGN puts him higher at 155. http://www.ign.com/ipl/starcraft-2/stats/players/destiny

Tbh, Iceland has a population of ~320k. For comparison, the Netherlands has a population of ~17million and they have about 2 well known pro-gamers who could beat Destiny (Ret, Grubby, I probably forgot someone)
The guy he's facing doesn't look too impressive. Of course no offense to Drezi.
Etc.

I think people are reading a little bit too much into this, this is supposed to be entertaining, and some people here are kinda buzzkills.

Hey guys, i am going to be casting this event, i really hope you all tune in! It's going to be a blast I'm a newcomer but hopefully i can eventually become a really good addition to the casting scene in SC2, here is a demo if you are curious.
I am an Australian caster if you're wondering about the accent.

this thread pretty much can be summed up with this: whole bunch of people mad that destiny can play other games (like LoL) and still get showmatches for money, while they are forced to sit here on tl and feel bad cause noone knows who they are, and also destiny is doing a show match vs drezi


so many people mad "destiny is no good! i mean... i cant beat him... and noone knows who i am.... but destiny is bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!1111!!! rageeeeeeeeee"
