He may not be the most likeable person in the scene but you got to give him that, that's for sure. Unlike most other foreigners, he just refuses to give up.


there's a game that just happened that you might want to see

Scarlett's ZvT and ZvZ are world class. She just needs a good Protoss teammate to practice ZvP.

Players like Scarlett and Stephano are so important for the scene. Hopefully she changes her mind. Title has been edited now but that was a really shitty and inaccurate title.

I agree, they really are important : (. Hopefully more interesting people pop up in the scene 'cause fighting games are killing eSports.

And what was the original title?


What if scarlett is thinking of going back to school? SC2 or any game is not a long term plan. She's been playing full time for a little while now, maybe she is thinking of moving forward with school soon to plan for the future? If thats the case by all means playing part time could be the best thing for her.

School is ruining esports too.

Well, either way, I hope new people come into the scene and keep it interesting.


They will. SC2 might not be as big as LoL or maybe DotA but its still really big. People like to say its getting smaller but honestly, a game like SC2, an economy focused RTS with a focus on individual play is just going to be less popular as the other games. But in the end, we see young 13, 14, 15 year old guys in NA, EU and KR playing and doing well now and I can only imagine how much better they get.

In BW a lot of people took breaks and came back played part time etc. In other games very few people were full time as well so I don't see part time as a problem.

Even if she's good at the game, I dislike her personnality a lot so I wouldn't mind if she retires.

I don't blame her...I don't know about anyone else, but merely *watching* this game gets tiring after viewing several matches in a row. It doesn't even matter if it gets to the semifinal stage, I literally can't watch anymore because its way too tiring.

Now imagine playing that game day in and day out as a professional, I can only imagine how irritating it would become, no matter how much you liked the game initially. Too much of anything is a bad thing except for those unique individuals who are made for gaming.

It does seem like the retention rate for Brood War lasted quite some time though, so I guess it depends on various factors. Counter strike was probably another long-lasting classic

That would be really sad if she retires. I think with Stephano she really was a zerg player i liked to watch. Now I'd understand if she's losing motivation she might already be fighting to stay in the game more than anything. Maybe she's already too bored.



about that 2gd comment being oversensitive has nothing to do with being hurt by such impressive comments. He was making fun of someone else too different from him for him to actually understand what its like. that's dickhead and it should not happen on broadcast and not at any tournament. You don't try to push for esport and tolerate such behavior at such a level.

Well, I just hope that she does nothing that she will regret later on, whether it be giving up player full-time or sticking to playing full-time. Whatever she ends up doing, I will wish her best of luck.

It's 2GD, at Homestory Cup, hardly a combination that makes for sensitivity.

I enjoy his crudeness, but that's neither here nor there, why even bring it up in this thread?

I really hope she stays as a fulltime pro Stephano gone, Idra gone, Nerchio was always only semi-active, DRG vanished, Nestea vanished... if Scarlett leaves there is no really good foreign zerg anymore.

Vortix, Sen, Snute, Nerchio during holidays... The foreign zerg scene would still be healthy. Also DRG is on his way back up again.

I can totally understand why progamers are quitting -and thats a good thing for their sake.

what is a european progamer really going to do once he reaches a point of retirement. They arent soccer starts that make hundreds of millions to retire on at 30.
Even the highest earning sc2 progamers have not made enough not to have to work again in their lives.

And the jobs for retired progamers are limited - what are they supposed to do, wash dishes at the age of 40?

Its different in korea, the whole culture offeres more in regards to gaming. There are more jobs available aftrer progaming ends (coach) and prices for living, gaming and everything else are much much lower. Im sure they have some of the problems we do, but just not as much.

On that basis you'd not be able to make fun of another gender (and a crapload of other situations) either, as that same principle should apply then too.

Not making fun of people if you don't know how they'll take it is indeed a good idea when thousands of people are watching you.

It's Nerchio being Nerchio. Probably still annoyed he lost 0-4 to Oz.
