Doom. Gloom. The end is Nigh. Repent, and give all your stuff to me.

There will be dancing, partying, a glorious send off of the world as we know it. This world shall end.

A new one shall begin.

TL; dr - No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow.

P.S. Seriously, you all need tinfoil hats.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

No they're not working together, but they might be talking about the same things, we'll find out soon I guess.

I speculate that is why shortly after the flurry of rumor tweets, he stopped and tweeted this:



죄송합니다. 제가 너무 경솔했습니다. 다음부턴 좀더 신중히 생각하고 행동하겠습니다.

(Google Translate) Sorry I was too careless. Next time, I will think and act more carefully.

Honestly the only salvation I see for Starcraft 2 at this point is Blizzards incompetence working in our favor, all we can hope for now is that Valve and Riot both battle each other and throw so much money into it that they end up destroying each other resulting in a huge decline in this MOBA fad, from there maybe Blizzard can just win by default. (When I say Blizzards incompetent i'm not pointing fingers at David, Browder, etc, I'm looking at the higher ups that refuse to give proper support to give the passionate devs what they need to make SC2 succeed.)

Jokes aside it really is depressing to see competitive gaming as a whole taking a turn into easier and more casual games (This can even be argued for SC2 vs BW), however elitist my stance may be there really is no denying that Starcraft 2 is the hardest competitive game being played right now on a main stage while shifting to being the least popular. I really wish people could see Starcraft 2 the way I do and see all the intricacies that make this game so amazing but with what competitive gaming is devolving into I feel pretty cynical about our games future.

At the very least hopefully with the games decline we can get rid of all the fake personalities just in it for money at this point, seeing Idra get his welfare money from Starcaft 2 predominantly and than talking about how bad the game is on stream, stream chats, twitter, and etc makes me disgusted that we as a community put up with someone like that while witch hunting personalities like Naniwa who actually care about the game and devote their life to it.

The only good news I can think of at this point is that Red Bull is interested in Starcraft 2 and Starcraft 2 exclusively which is pretty huge considering an actual sponsor is producing the content as opposed to an organization.

I think you mean growing esports back into the greatness it once was at its height in Korea, and perhaps even more than that. Last night's OGN finals was one of the best things I've watched in a long time.


Yes we know you are a LoL fan. But not everyone is a LoL fan. You know what he ment with eSports: Starcraft.

Earthquake by Labrinth, read the rumors then read the lyrics


Lyrics
+ Show Spoiler +
Ladies and gentlemen
This is something they call
A ground-breaker, breaker...
So let me first apologize
To the shirts and the ties
For your makeup

Cause I'll make you ugly
As soon as it drops
We're on a rampage
Bottles poppin' off
Before you know it
There's rubble and dust
Cause we be crashing it up
Somebody say, "You better run"

Yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Say yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Cause we throw bombs on it, throw bombs on it
Just smash something, yeah mosh for me
Hey yeah!
We can make an earthquake up in here
So here we go, we go

Ladies and gentlemen
What you're about to witness
Is no illusion...
And now, we got the bass banging from here to Buckingham Palace
They're all moving
Hey Simon, we're fucking them up
Turning them Syco [a record label owned by Simon Cowell]
Everybody rock
Let's bring the house down to rubble and dust
Cause we be crashing it up
Somebody say, "You better run"

Yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Say yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Cause we throw bombs on it, throw bombs on it
Just smash something, yeah mosh for me
Hey yeah!
We can make an earthquake up in here
So here we go, we go

I predict an earthquake up in here... [2x]
Cause we throw bombs on it, throw bombs on it
Just smash something, yes mosh for me, hey yes
We can make an earthquake up in here
So here we go, we go

[Tinie Tempah]
Hey, yo Labrinth, this one's feeling like a straight 10 on the Richter scale, you know
Yeah, fire, fire
We about to set this place on fire
Without a match or lighter
Don't do girlfriends
One nighters make them, ah
C-minor, if I want Christian or Kurt Geiger
I just phone up the designer
Doing all-nighters
No days off, grey hairs and a little bit of weight loss
I predict riots, I predict chaos
I predict evil, I predict aaahh!
Disturbing London, got the whole city panicking
I'll be Nostradamus, this my nig-nig-nig-nig Labrinth

Yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Say yeah!
I predict an earthquake up in here
Cause we throw bombs on it, throw bombs on it
Just smash something, yeah mosh for me
Hey yeah!
We can make an earthquake up in here
So here we go, we go

Labrinth, come in...

Could he mean the game of "rumors" is not fun and it's hurting 'them'?
