His macro in BW was so scary!! I felt like Artosis watching his games and just enjoying the supply rise and rise with the money always so low.
I hope he gets more attention in SCII, though. People need to realize how good he really is, even without much tournament results to back it up

I wonder how Tyler himself feels about these kinds "articles".

I can imagine he's already under huge stress to make an impact, and stuff like this... I doubt it makes the situation any easier. I know it was written with best intentions, but maybe Tyler needs to fall out of the spotlight for a while and re-invent his game.

Honestly he gets a lot more attention then his results would justify, just because he is Tyler. Would be cool if he became really good in SC2 but I doubt his heart is really in it.

My take on Tyler's situation is this: The man obviously has a deep passion for Starcraft, or he wouldn't be playing it professionally and engaging in the community. And he's made clear that something IRL is getting between him and the kind of practice regimen that would allow him to shine. Because he's so obviously passionate about his craft, and because TL's leadership presumably knows what's going on and has continued to be supportive of him, we can only deduce that whatever is going on behind the scenes must be a pretty huge deal.

Given that I respect Tyler's decision to keep his private life private and have no reason to doubt the judgement of TL leadership, I'm content to remain in the dark and just have faith that (1) whatever is going on will not last forever and (2) when Tyler is able to return to top form, he'll likely have what it takes to be a major player in the SC2 scene.

Seriously, we have so little information about what the situation is that all of the criticism and praise that are heaped on Tyler seem a little silly.

Sick writeup, Tyler is so sick - real life concerns win out thought! Hopefully he can dedicate more time and become a top player again!

I've felt he is too far behind the curve to catch up, tho he is a nice enough guy, but that isn't enough to be amongst the best. Good write up tho.

I wish people would stop bashing him and THEN encouraging him. He's not doing that bad. Let him be.
He'll practice as much as he wants to.

I suspect you mean people who say "if he practices 2-3 hours each day, he would do extremely well".

That is not bashing. That is not even criticism, it is a simple observation. It is entirely up to Tyler what he wants to do. I am a huge fan of Tyler/NonY and if he did decide to practice more it would make me extremely happy, but I realize that it is futile to try to pressure someone into something they don't feel like doing, or can't do, for all I know.

Nice first article, I enjoyed reading it.
Who knows if Tyler will decide to go full tilt into practicing for sc2, I wish he did but I respect that he may be past that in his life.
Either way I will always remember him for the fun games in both sc1 and sc2.
Oh and I agree, he should go back to his Nony name

Tyler has one of the most entertaining streams to watch and learn from, the way he constructs and refines new builds is just amazing. I agree that it's just a matter of time before he starts doing very well in the SC2 scene.

Urgh, was just looking for an epic post from NonY in TSL2 but cant find it..

I think it was him anyways.. He kinda flamed a foreigner and was like "don't reply to this, you wont be getting any free english lessons from me"

He is there. Somewhere. Waiting. Patiently planning and scheming.
And he will strike. Sooner than later. And the world will turn their eyes on him as he will shine in glory again.
