Unless I have this all wrong and people are shelling out all this money just to beat up their friends or whatever, that is fine too and I am sure these types of things work great for that. Have there been any pro gamers that came out of something like this? I can't think of any in any game really. Again not trying to bring this down, just opening up a little discussion. | ||

But there's probably better ways to go about it. A round trip ticket to Arizona + lodging seems overpriced. Have you guys thought about liability in the case an accident occurs to a minor? edit: Maybe using video conferences would be a better idea? | ||

For 1 the mechanics in starcraft 2 are easy, 2 the strategy is relatively simple, 3 none of these guys are even that good (as in they never actually win anything...). Its just a giant nerdfest that incontrol is putting together to try and scam people out of their money. Yeah, SC2 is such a simple game. I remember when SCBW was big, back in the day, but I knew better. I finally convinced everyone how little strategy was involved, and it died off pretty soon. Good thing Command & Conquer took Korea by storm, and that it has such a lasting impact. | ||

It's a huge difference between playing and teaching. The experience is more important. Furthermore i highly doubt that idra is capable of teaching someone. | ||

You dont have to be the best player to be a good coach. take example in soccer , you have sometimes good coaches wich never played in their live competetive soccer but still very good coaches. i think it's the right step in the pro direction, i think it's unfair to critizize people wich are trying to bring a more proffesional approach to the game. You also learn faster from other people who are committed like these guys are. i dont understand the hostility from some people here . Who are they and they never won a tournament. Do you think in the Korean team houses the coaches are better players then the players they coach? If the coach would be better then the player , he wouldn't be coaching but playing. A copper league player could coach a platinum player if he knows the game and has the grasp to analyze the mistakes a player does, points them out and makes the other player practice them. | ||
