When I first started in beta I didn't even know about eSports, I just wanted to learn how to play the game better. But TL got me hooked fast. I was trying out builds on my own but also following Canadian heroes like HuK closely. These days even though I don't play as much, TL keeps me in the loop. The events calendar is something I check everyday and provides me with so much entertainment. On top of that, Liquidpedia is the shining standard for eSports wikis. I just love how hard everyone in this scene works, from BaseTradeTV to TL. Thanks for 5 years of memories and fun, SC2! How old is your daughter ? | ||

The best memory would probably be my first DreamHack Bucharest, Taeja winning (beating SoS, Life and Inno), TeamLiquid beating up Acer and meeting Day9 in person! StarCraft is love, StarCraft is life! | ||

I had been playing diablo and warcraft 2 with my brothers so we were already aware of its release. And then we've played countless hours together, or on b.net. I remember us catching ElkY vs BoxeR WCG videos and that was glorious. Now I don't have much time to play, or even watch because of work, but it's still a good reason tell the g.f. from time to time "sorry honey, tonight is starcraft time". I love starcraft simply because mentioning these recollections brings a small tear to my eyes  . | ||

That's the case whether you play yourself and finally pull off a sick game after practicing a style for a while, or if you are just cheering for your favourite player in an intense game. I never felt as excited for another game. In how many other games do people have ladder anxiety? Sure this might be a bad thing, but it just proves how sick and intense sc2 is as a game. Playing this game is literally exhausting and feels like a mental workout, there is just nothing quite like it. In a time where everybody decided to make 5v5 games, sc2 is a precious gem! Oh and Jaedong! Jaedong is love, Jaedong is life. That we have the best community out of any game is obvious  . | ||

I love watching SC2 more than any other sports. A SC2 series is the ultimate test of will and skill, and the interactions mid series between two evenly matched players are sometimes fascinating. Happy birthday SC2 I just hope they don't make a retarded ingame celebration like they did last year, man those hats kept me off the game for a freaking week. | ||

know why i love this game, I just do. I feel it might be a combination of the beauty of the game, watching amazing marine splits and knowing the effort behind it and on the other hand the personalities. The second one is really important, there are not many games were the interaction and friendship is that big between Casters/Observer and Players, which is unique. (Dota isn´t anything like that) We aren´t the biggest e-sport anymore, but the most elitist and thats great. Cheers! | ||

There's so much to say but so few characters, I love sc2 but what connects me to them the most are players like Creator and innovation. I know they both care about playing and winning but they both show it differently, this says a lot about a person. How they handle challenges and how they cope with defeat, we get to see it all, players like Curious and soO really inspire me. To stand up and fall and stand up again just to fall and repeat this cycle until nothing can knock you down, sc2 is a mental and cerebral(lol) game but not just based on the strategy in that one game or BO mindgames. Its a mental game on so many levels before you even sit down in the booth. So many dimensions that affects who will, in the end be the champion and today! This month, Curious and soO are those champions, that makes me so happy! | ||
