Yeah, same as this guy. I can notice my music for short periods of time at certain moments (early game, for example) but nothing major.

I play horribly when I listen to friends speaking in skype though.
And I play Zerg, btw.

I usually listen to Nachtmahr,Triarii or Endstille during my ladder sessions.

I almost always listen to alternative rock, or maybe some instrumental music when I need to relax. My playlist is mostly alternative rock and Coldplay.
PartinG fanboy to the max, Rain/Squirtle/Dear/Scarlett/Bbyong are cool too. I don't always watch Dota2 but when I do I have no clue what's going on. GOGO POWER RANGERS

Lol with all the k-pop. Maybe THAT'S what's holding back my play.
Guess who`s special?!

I can't listen to music while I'm playing, it seriously distracts me. When I'm listening to music, I'm doing only that and nothing else.
first we make expand, then we defense it.

Bumped. I just looked this up and was astounded at the ridiculousness of the fact that people vote "K-pop and other pop" as a joke and then we don't get a decent and honest result. Just because they're speaking Korean does not mean you will play better. I HIGHLY doubt that almost EVERYBODY listens to K-Pop when they play SC2. I have, and I didn't like it. Meanwhile I listen to dubstep, and it helps. Under K-Pop I feel as though people were honest but seriously, don't vote for something just because it's interesting or funny or whatever. Just say what you listen to! It's NOT that hard! That's almost like voting for a president just because he/she is black or mormon or white or a woman. Get it together people. Look at what's underneath, not the first thing that you see in the music.

It's Starcratifically proven that listening to K-pop makes you better at Starcraft.

There's obviously no other reason for Koreans being so gosu.

I play terran and listening exclusively to Taylor Swift. You should add a country category!

Zerg and Wu Tang go together like white on rice.

Whereas Terran is best with crooner music.

My 2 cents.

I usually listen to hip hop such as SoundzImage, Evan Awake, Shing02+Nujabes, Avens. ALT-TAB Sage used to use may playlist during his stream when he was still in NSHS. It seems to relaxes me during my ladder games so i don't overreact to things.


So damn good when you want to calm down after losing or just to relax yourself during games.

I was astounded at the ridiculousness of the fact that you think people might have voted for kpop as a joke
