All the stats towards the end sold me, thats what I was hoping for. I am going to grab the paperback book so I can leave it out when people come to visit.

Thanks a bunch, Rastaban. A review on here (and Amazon) would be greatly appreciated so other people can get a feel for it. Also, ftr, I think that for a book like this, paperback is the better way to read it. But you all obviously go for whatever format you prefer. | ||

I wish something like this was made for BW, can you imagine the history retained? Builds and strategies were SO different back then, I would love to have something like this for every year since Starcraft started being played professionally haha. Good luck with sales, looks pretty good! :D | ||

Along with it being a good read now (IMO, of course  , I really wanted us to have something that we could look back on years from now and say, "Lol what were we thinking?" etc. | ||

Personnally I followed the sc2 scene since the beginning almost, but for all those who saw their interest for starcraft 2 growing late, there was no way for them to catch back on history and get access to the same global memories that all the community shares... And of course it'll also be a great esport guide that people will be able to show to their friends family etc to try to get them involved. Thanks for the initiative! | ||
