You know, I actually miss staying up until well past dawn to watch GSL like I did in 2011/12. I miss seeing HuK and NaNiwa make top 8 in GSL Code S. I miss SlayerS, IM, OGS, TSL, NSHS, and ZeNEX. I miss following this game, but I don't know if too much time has passed for me to get back into it.

Merry Christmas SC2 and big up to TL for staying true to the game and its community when other teams out there didn't.

It is not late, but I feel that before there were less player base, and now there are so much players everywhere, that it's hard to keep following most of them
Maybe if you try to get track of the new tournaments and such you can like it a lot, and get some favourites, but for me, most of the players I loved to see retired... or the game became so much standard at some point that I don't feel like the are doing "special" to keep me cheering for them, except few who I sometimes check their matches.

Maybe with LotV the game changes so much and there will REALLY be viable options for all the MUs, that it will be nice to play a lot and watch a lot more again, and some pros will be aknowledge by their own playstyle or army compo, pushes, etc.

Right now I feel a lot of that is lost, except for few, which is kinda sad, and that is the reason I come back from time to time to watch the game but not as 2010 - 2012

Scarlett vs Bomber will, I think, always be my favorite game.

Always have been, always will be, I've never really liked or played video games I just like Starcraft, man
It teach me effort, never before Starcraft did I tried for real,I always played the "lol didn't work card". And then I play ladder 15 loses in a row I get my ass handed to me and nobody cared if I work or not so I tried, I really did. I wasn't Stephano but it teach me persistance. Starcraft was the big brother I never had.

50 years from now, I will still watch 82yo Artosis explaining how Nestea greatson is the reincarnation of Bogus

God damn. HP SC2. I still remember how we played starcraft 1 even before broodwar was out, as teenagers, drinking beer and trying to figure out how to utilize arbiters most effectively. Now, as an oldish man, I kinda hope I had the time to devote for this baby. I have played LoL every now and then just for fun, since its way easier to pick up after a long while, but real gamers know that Mobas do not have the same spirit in them.

Cheers TL for keeping up the game.

Five years already?

Has it be just five years?

I have so many memories regarding SC2. When it was launched, the 4:3 aspect ratio for monitors (and streams) were still in use.

German Zerg player Miezekotze has just made a great music video based on Brian Mays "Too much love will kill you" for SC2's 5th birthday:

People thinking they knew exactly what they want, most of the time have no idea what they can get.
