Sounds right. AHhh the injustice! Lets go shit on someone else because they are popular! I'm sure the fans of said person will certainly care that I think they don't deserve their popularity!

Hahaha. Team manager of Acer: Mondi. Team players: 3 zergs 1 terran. Mondi: "As you wish mighty Overmind. I will recruit more zergs, but keep this one terran to study the enemy."
He cant help it, he has zerg blood in his veins all the way.
EDIT: On topic. With nerchio scarlett will have a great practice partner.

'After DarkHydra joined Acer and Osho retired, management was beginning to worry that the Zerg presence on the team was becoming much too low to compete in teamleagues. " says scarlett, yet there was 3 zergs and 1 terran before she joined? lol im confused

well, wouldnt it be better if it did? What else has nourished this popularity? The fact that its a Transsexual?. I mean, there are plenty of people that has beaten one Korean and does not have nearly this amount of fans. Seems a bit unfair imo :p. Its not like Scarlett won fans with some super charismatic personality (not saying the personality isnt super charismatic, just that the reason was not that).
But then again, people can be fans of whomever they wish certinly, just find it funny how Scarlett have so many with so few results Just cause of a sexchange... prolly gonna get warned now, for being frank :p. I have nothing against any type of HBTq person, do what the fuck you want aslong as youre happy and dont hurt anyone.

She came out of NO where, having no teams, that's why! And being so close to beat a Code S Korean is something too, even if the result in the end was a loss, she impressed with her skills, and no one besides the viewers of the Iron Lady cup and the Playhem ''Sponsor Me'' tournament know who she was. And seeing her ladder games, she keeps improving, and the patch probably helps her a lot with her ZvT early game weakness, so I think she's potentially dangerous.

meant to be a PM. whoops :|

Thank god she chose a reputable team after that episode with the eclypsia "organization".

Don't pretend man. It is pretty obvious the main reason she is as popular as she is now is because of the gender change. She is a good player but again, dont pretend that it was her beating two mediocre koreans that led her to this fame. Sadly, women will always get extra attention especially in video games....that is just how the world works. She has potential to becoming a top player i just always find it extremely annoying how some fans overhype her to the point where they pretend she is already winning tournaments left and right. That and pretending her beating two mediocre koreans was the only reason for her fame. Just look at Incontrol for example, the guy is horrible by pro standards but he is one of the most popular pro's around because of his personality. It is the same here with Scarlett's gender change.

Sounds right. To be honest that's the exact same thing I always think when reading about her. As great as it is that there is a female gamer now, all of this seems quite exaggerated to me.

I'm personally a fan of talented, mannered, NA players which gives me...Illusion and Huk (with Hawk, State, Ostijiy and a few others being pretty good too). Scarlett has shown the potential to be really excellent NA pro and I'll take what I can get.
Edit: and Sheth! Sheth is really good too.
