Haven't seen this on TL so I tought I might post it. It's an article about SlayerS`Cella. Normally Eurogamer doesn't make articles related to the progaming scene.
It shows you the path Cella has taken during the last year.
Cella's first tournament as head coach was the same month: SlayerS once again triumphed, with another heavy-hitting run through the contenders before an epic final series against team MVP. And once again, Cella scooped best coach. He shrugs his shoulders. "We won the GSL. I thought that proved me as a coach. Then we won the GSL again." He looks pretty convincing.
Blazing onto the scene as head coach of SlayerS is one thing, but Cella's also long been known within the StarCraft II community for being one of the best and funniest streamers around. "I love streaming," he says, "maybe too much." Thousands of Starcraft II players, from pros to those trying to climb out of Bronze league, broadcast their practice and ladder games.
Cella's livestreams are like a show. All of the elements are there. There are catchphrases ('Holy Check!'), special guests, commercial breaks, singalongs, and if you only watch one Cella clip then please make it this 46 seconds of fried chicken appreciation. The enthusiastic English ("I want birthday sec!") and constant K-pop are just the icing on the cake.
Here is the full article.

I think the guy means that you should only have an excerpt in your spoiler - not the whole article!
Anyhow, good read :D much <3 to Cella~
That fried chicken video link was funny lol

Great article for a resounding and great figure in the scene.
SlayerS really does everything right.

Sure, if you want you can also excerpt some part as a teaser

Nice to see eurogamer doing articles like this :}
|
Good read ^^
Cella is such a cool dude
Salutations to Cella, SlayerS and Eurogamer o>

holy check, great article
|
I could (and have) watch this guy eat chicken and drink cola, Cella is hella cool dood.
|
Thanks for the link. I seem to recall though that it was mentioned somewhere that Ga Yeon was also integral in setting up Cella and BoxeR, though it doesn't seem to be mentioned in the article. Hmm... can't remember the source of that either.
It was a good read though. Nice to see Cella has some influence in players as well, MioWerra (aka Jys or Slayers_Dragon is in the clan) and I noticed that SengCun(Werra) is now listed in the SlayerS team roster for this season's GSTL.

Great read, Watched Cella since before the werra incident. When that happened he was so down, drinking and losing hope every day. Now im not a great writer but Cella's story is pretty darn inspirational i am so happy for him HOLY CHECK!
|
Nice article,it's kinda weird that you dont actually see pro-gaming news in regular gaming publications(atleast the major sites that I goto never actually had anything on bw/sc2..well sc2 has some coverage now).
Cella is awesome! I remember watching his stream when the werra scandal broke out, it was really sad, but glad that things are looking up now... and his stream is a lot of fun.

Very very good article. I never caught up to the whole Cella thing, but now I am a fan of the man. I love people who are passionate enough to sacrifice certain things in life when the going gets tough.

You guys should all watch Cella his stream when he plays, not only will you see magnificent Zerg play but you will also see(if you are lucky, he doesn't do it always):
Cella Singing
Cella dancing(sort of)
Cella with sunglasses
Cella 2v2ing and drone rushing
twice
Ow and he let MMA play once, but that was more of a one time thing.
/shameless avertising of Cella.
He is just that awesome, thanks for the interview.
