Some roughly translated comments
+ Show Spoiler +


- " E-sports is on the verge of breaktrough in Sweden" as usually Aftonbladet is 10 years behind the reality....

-Aftonbladet is so big in Sweden that claiming it being behind in the News feed is ridiculous

- I agree! When E-sports is getting mentioned in the biggest tabloid and showed on TV its a breaktrough in my eyes. Furthermore when gaming gets approved by the Society as a profession we will have another breaktrough

-Just because you have a world champion in something does not mean that the sport is having a breaktrough. I feel that what Aftonbladet is trying to say is that E-sports is starting to become more mainstream

-E-sports? Thats so geeky. Wonder If "jinro" have had many injuries during pre-season? He migth get Carpal tunnel which is nothing to joke about. The physical aspect is neither something to joke about, so lets hope he prepares well , with good excersice and alot of Jolt before the big match

- I dont follow you. Why talk about the physical performance in e-sports? Nobody has ever suggested E-sports being a physical sport.( yeah sports,cause that is the umbrella term for activities with competition). I would rather place it in the same category as chess,poker etc.

- You have probably never played any game on a professional level . They train really hard. Must be tough for you that he earns more money in nine hours than you do in half a year .
Congratulations jinro, put Sweden on the map in E-sports! "

-Starcraft 2 is entertaining to watch at,so give it a chance before giving negative comments
