Zerg with its Hive/Inject/Creep systems and protoss with its warp ability might seem a little bit strange/difficult for people that played alot of other RTS. It might also have to do with the story. Terrans look like dolls and mechas, fighting for good. Zerg is cute and cuddly and Protoss are the pretty aliens. ^_^ I wish I had a broodlord, they're much better than ponies because they can fly. + Show Spoiler + I play random.

Do you actually know anything about this player, or what tests she went through to earn her spot? If not, how do you know how good she is relative to the "way better" teamless players? Also, she's probably being added as an B-teamer, so she probably signed for a similar deal to other players on the roster with similar results, which is prrobably lot less than the teamless players want. | ||

I'm sure she would've quit it a long time ago if she didn't enjoy it somewhat. And yes, the SC2 scene would be non-existent. I'm aware. It doesn't change the fact that it's a poor choice for a life path for 95%+ of people that choose to do it. *EDIT : And I dropped pharmacy school after 3 years (large salary) to go back to biochemistry research (decent salary) so I know what it is to go and do something you want. But I wouldn't have went back if I made 5-10k a year in research. if they are happy trying to be a pro gamer even if they are in dire poverty it is hardly a poor life decision. who are you to tell them not to go for it? happier people are better people. i live quite comfortably on about 12k a year | ||

One note though. She's actually not Startale's first non-Korean member. Torch was on their team for a while in late 2010-mid 2011. #edit# Thread title was changed it looks like. Victory! ...or something. | ||

I've still not determined what race she plays, maybe someone said it but I missed it. The Liquipedia page has a Terran symbol on it but it's not clear if that's just a placeholder or not. Would be awesome if she played Zerg XD | ||
