I am confident that there are very few people who could play better when paralyzed than when off-racing. You may be watching one of them.

Nice game, you are quite inspiring.

first, your video is very inspiring. I love when people don't let things like this stay in their way. You have to show a lot of inner strength to over come these barriers though, so props to you.

now, whats the definition for quadriplegic? I thought it meant you couldn't move any of your limbs.

Props to you. Goes to show that the brain is the ultimate muscle and if you are smart enough you can find a way to own at any game. I have a friend who is missing an arm that rules at halo. He holds the controller upside down in his hand with his index finger and pinky on the triggers ad uses his other arm nub to move the left joystick.

one of my biggest fears is becoming a quad.... bait now knowing that there is still a way to play video games... you are my hero man. this is awesome please keep it up!!!

also have you looked into any of those brain computer interfaces? from what I understand they have some basic ones available for public purchase... I'm not really sure how usefsul they are or if they even work but I did a paper on them in college a couple years back. I know one they had out was called the nia or something.... it might just be some gimmick though...

anyways man one more time, you rock hahaha.

he's not disabled TOO badly but for something like playing SC (or anything that requires finger dexterity) must be really tough.

People never cease to amaze me, and I mean that as a compliment. I know it's cheesy as hell, but way to show everyone that we have yet to discover the limits of human willpower and creativity when it comes to stopping us from doing the things that we love! Keep improving, you're doing so great!

Look at what he's doing. He could do the exact same thing in SC1. You people need to get over the fact this isn't a 5+ year old game (known 'best' strats, no more patching) with a niche hardcore userbase (iccup). Of COURSE SC2 is 'easier' right now than SC1.

On topic, that's a pretty neat video OP.

A bit confused here, the replay says he played against a "Sushi".. I just checked http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/1597876 and InflowMini is 14th; there's no Sushi anywhere in the top 200

He means rank 14 diamond in the "rank 1 diamond" way. ie, Sushi's rank 14 in his division - not in the whole region.

I have and I agree with him, could he get B+/A-? Maybe, but thats on him, as far as his current skill level goes Im pretty sure he could easily get C-/C with mass gaming if he learns the match up for sc1, stop acting like an elitist ass.

How would builds have anything to do with this game being harder for a quadriplegic. It's the UI that would make SCBW WAY harder.

The UI is easier, deal with it.

im not sure if he would "easily be able to get c-/c" while only being able to hit 1 slow hotkey at a time as a quadraplegic. This is not a, which is better blah blah argument or elitism. Iccup requires a lot more button hitting...which for the OP is going to be very demanding. and to consider that someone is able to hit A- on iccup with essentially 1 finger on their left hand is insulting to how competitive and difficult iccup truly is.

oh, and please no more "SC2 is so easy a quad can play it" If he were qualifying for the GSL then maybe you could say that. There's a video of a blind guy playing Brood War, does that mean BW is easy?

to the OP, great job man and continue to not let your condition stop you from doing things you like.

Of course Sc2 is so easy a quad can play it and of course BW is so easy a blind man can play it.

That is a good thing. Now about winning in those games...

Videos like this make be want to kick all the whiners out of this forum, if this man with his limitations can be such a good player, you with your full mobility should just shut up and practice more.

This goes specially to all the bronzies, silvers and golds with a negative attitude....

But also shows how easy to control is sc2 compare to sc1


Look at what he's doing. He could do the exact same thing in SC1. You people need to get over the fact this isn't a 5+ year old game (known 'best' strats, no more patching) with a niche hardcore userbase (iccup). Of COURSE SC2 is 'easier' right now than SC1.

On topic, that's a pretty neat video OP.


loool, 5 bucks you never even played on iccup


I have and I agree with him, could he get B+/A-? Maybe, but thats on him, as far as his current skill level goes Im pretty sure he could easily get C-/C with mass gaming if he learns the match up for sc1, stop acting like an elitist ass.

On Topic, grats mate!

oh, and please no more "SC2 is so easy a quad can play it" If he were qualifying for the GSL then maybe you could say that. There's a video of a blind guy playing Brood War, does that mean BW is easy?

The blind guy was playing a blindfolded boxer. The blind guy lost as boxer simply lifted off his CC after removing his blindfold when lings were in his base.
What the blind guy did was very impressive, but that is not to say that any blind guy can actually play the game.
Op however actually executed a midgame buildorder seemingly quite smoothly. This would simply not be possible in bw.
This is not to take anything away from OP. He obviously practised playing like that a lot and it's awesome to see that he is not just giving up. He is a trooper of life! But it also does a great job putting the whole bw skill vs sc2 skill into perspective.

I've essentially said the same thing twice in this thread, but I just didn't like the boxer vs blind guy argument.

I think he mis-said what he was trying to say - I think he was trying to say something along the lines of "damn how'd you break your neck, that sucks :[? - Well done on the game though good sir!"
Instead, it sounded like, "GOOD JOB BREAKING YOUR NECK"

Anywho, pretty amazing stuff there man, pretty awesome to watch and heartwarming / inspiring.

Congrats on doing so well. You remind me that the only limitations we have, are the ones we accept.

Suddenly I feel kinda childish for getting angry over trivial shit like cheesey openings and what not. Props to this guy for sure, it's one thing to have special olympics or wheelchair basketball or whatever, but this guy is playing with a disability against all the people that are fully functional and doing well. Pretty difficult to do. Respect.

I'd say he was more awesome than that guy because I don't give a shit about skateboarding. The gif could show a skateboarding disembodied head doing a kick flip and I'd still find the OP's video to be more impressive.

You are the epitome of "gamer"! Just awesome man!

Allthough its not the best comparison but this video reminded me a bit of myself when I broke my hand and still tried to fit an n64 controller into it to play Zelda for the first time since Snes. It was such a pain but well worth it!

See you on ladder

I am so glad for players like this that they un-did the hold key fix that they were going to use in patch 1.2. That change would have made the game much more difficult for players like this who would have to be basically hammering their keyboard to build enough drones.

Keep it up man, you're doing great

Holy shit. That was amazing.

I develop a lot of interface technology for people with physical disability, and I'd love to talk to you sometime about how you're mastering starcraft - and seriously, more than any rank, this is a kind of mastery over yourself that I can hardly fathom. Exciting, inspiring, and promising! Do you know of anyone else who has achieved your level in SC despite their paralysis?

This monumentally impressive. Not the idea that you are overcoming an adversity that severely diminishes play performance (in most cases), but that not only are you overcoming it, but you are on an equal playing field than diamond players (and better than many lower-league players).

The idea that a quadriplegic is more superb at Starcraft 2 than a vast majority of players around the world is perhaps more than just anecdotal proof that Starcraft 2 calls for more than just speed or reaction, but more thought and strategy than some are lead to believe.

Congratulations, you sir have perhaps reminded me the essence of Starcraft 2.

And thats how OP terran is. This guy can play it well and its fact that he doesn't have the same degree of control of a normal person, yet he can beat a high level players.

No offence to you ofcorse, well done I playing Sc2 at such a high level even with your disability.

Wow, awesome spectral! Gotta love that new game! You showed you could bring up the macro game

What would you say is the hardest thing for you playing?

Also, ive seen you lift your mouse hand to set control groups. If you somehow set the middle button to act as CTRL, would it help u making them? Or do you have problems pressing each button on the mouse separately?

No offense, it is easy to lose as zerg so I'm not surprised that he can lose once in a while to someone with disablility. there is no shame in it whatsoever.

I never qqed about balance, what are you on about? saying its "easy to lose" has nothing to do with balance (easy to lose = unforgiving). Read before you post, as there is also a replay of him playing a zerg.

Your perspective on competitive gaming could be pretty invaluable as e-sports moves on. From your third person perspective camera angle, it seems like you improvise tools in order to compensate for your disability. Have you ever thought of using your unique experience in competitive gaming to perhaps create keyboards, mouses, or other equipment designed for the impaired gamer? I think that aspect of the competitive community could do well to have some much needed attention and could perhaps be a neat monetary outlet that works well with your passion for gaming. Just throwing ideas out there.

Spectraix.. this is so clearly awesome. It's pretty damn amazing to see this kind of stuff because not only will it inspire you to beat odds in SC2, but also give you confidence in beating the odds in other life challenges.

And to think people piss and moan about headaches and claim they're dying over a the littlest bullshit--you, on the other hand, tell your condition to F off and just be awesome at things anyway.

Great stuff. I'll watch every video you post--I think it's fantastic.

This is one of the most incredible achievements I've accomplished as a gamer. I never thought buying starcraft that i would ever be able to have a positive win ratio, let alone get out of bronze league. Surpassing my goal of having a positive win ratio even if its by one game has been a challenge but i recently was promoted to GOLD LEAGUE! as a quadriplegic!

I put together this montage video showing me putting on all my adaptive equipment and a fraps video of me achieving god league i thought this video was exceptionally different considering its my biggest achievement as a quadriplegic gamer only in contention with achieving 1800 in World of Warcraft arenas

Wow. 1800 is not high, but I would imagine that would be MUCH harder than playing SC2, due to the constant need for proper positioning.

I'm a little confused though, how is this quadriplegia? Not being able to your use fingers is a HUGE disadvantage, but I thought quadriplegia would imply you have no control of your arms either.

Anyway, great job, keep up the good work.

edit:
I'm still kind of wondering how you played WoW, haha. Like, WoW requires far more speed than SC2 to play well, due to the constant need for positioning and targeting.

He wasn't trying to be rude, it's quite a common misconception for people to think it means total loss of function. I thought so too myself until recently enough. It probably gets pretty old over time though. Anyhow, grats

noted ;D but yea, its just like half of my questions are them not asking me, but telling me i am not a quadriplegic,.advertising wrong makes me look like a lyer lol then the debate follows, but no offense but it is ignorent to post on the fourm of a quadriplegic trying to sate hes not one, id think he would have looked it up if he was confused. because i wish i was not one but i am and im pritty sure id know if i was one or not
