I like it. A lot of people like it. A lot of people on TL like bitching how they don't. To each their own.

Remember when he won and complained he couldn't win more than 10K at a time. #firstworldproblems


I like it when the games aren't 40 minute+ stalemates. The blink all-ins get old too.

Play? Not really no, when I get home from university/extra job I want to relax and play some fun games with friends. Not having to be super focused.

Watch? Depends 100% on the players. I compare it somewhat to my interest in sports. If it's my country playing then I can watch. But I don't watch random high level matches because it's fun to watch good games. Want to know a bit about the players playing to make it interesting. Like Bomber/Life/Gumiho/Maru/Soulkey or whatever. Then there is Leenock whom I know a bit more on a personal level. And cheering for him is like cheering for a friend. The only player I actually look forward to watching play. But there are a lot of players I tune in to, to watch high level games.

He wasn't looking happy at all the whole tournament. If you compare him with the TaeJa at Dreamhack it's such a difference :\

Shame, but understandable because of his wrists injuries.

First he GGs out of games early, now he's retiring early.

Can't really take this seriously, because it's right after a loss.

He's had issues with his wrists for a long time now.

I enjoy playing it quite a bit, maybe even more than watching. Cause at my level (I'm awful), I know that balance doesn't matter, and I should be able to beat all my opponents if I improve my game.

I should hope you do as well because you are in LR threads all the time I presume you are watching games, and you shouldn't be watching something so much that you don't enjoy.

I only enjoy watching now, and even then it's selective games that I can watch. Play maybe a couple games a week now just so I stay eligible for CSL.

you guys underestimate the toll that 7-10 years of playing an APM-intensive game has on one's wrists.

I've put in about 8,000 hours into the game, and I've had to take a lengthy break from playing due to the pain in my forearms, specifically my wrists.

there really needs to be some sort of innovation in the RSI field, because I can only see the problem worsening as more people acquire access to computers throughout the world.

imagine if our favorite players and progamers could have playing careers that lasted 20-30 years, instead of the 5-10 years they have now.

Or encourage them to go to the gym and do more than sit in front of a computer 10 hours a day. You don't have to be a progamer to injure yourself. Just take a look at the people sitting in an office job.

maybe he sees that as a big deal for the survival of sc2 and thinks this is more important than getting free wins

Or we can just accept that a lot of jobs come with occupational hazards. There is a lot you can do to avoid them, but sometimes it can just be inevitable.
