I expect they'll do a lot better than people think! if it was a wc3 tournament or dota chinese teams have some of the best wc3/dota teams. There were a couple noticeable ones in bw, Chinese player base is fucking huge. So I would expect alot to be pretty top level considering some probably play on korean server since the beginning. | ||

The player base isn't that huge. BW and W3 were huge in China because they were free and didn't require a high end computer and could be played online with lan latency thanks to private b.net servers (I remember back then, each city/province had its own private b.net server, so sick). SC2 is the total opposite. But yeah, WCG results were pretty convincing, China does have very talented players, and I expect the Chinese team to do well. Hope that Sen will join ! | ||

It's probably as simple as having a safe, stable income, while still being able to work with what you love (or maybe he lost that passion or drive to endure long practice hours) On December 16 2011 16:05 paintfive wrote: imagine.. if it were sponsored by the state. they would dominate for years to come omg that would be epic haha... just a tiny bit would be like nothing, but to the sc2 team, would be so helpful | ||

He has said to me he actually doesn't practice much. Imagine if he did - would be frightening. He said in some interview that he plays 40-60 games a day. "E-sports": Xiaose (Chinese commentator of NeoTV, the channel that braodcasts GSL in China) said that you play about 80 games per day and that you have a smurf account that's ranked #1 in the Korean server. Is that true? iG.Xigua: 80 games is a bit too much, that will be kind of ridiculous (laughs), I play between 40-60 games per day in average and 80 games maximum. I also do have a smurf account and it's currently ranked top 20 in the Korean ladder http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=293523 | ||

A bit arrogant if this is the case. Xigua is not a full time progamer at all, he does it for fun. He has other business interests...let's be honest, being a progamer is not the way to go if you want to earn real money. | ||
