The German programmer Tobi "Lorax" Lutke is known to be a huge StarCraft fan and even competed himself in BW (winning a tournament is one of his proudest achievements).
He was part of the team that built Ruby on Rails and went on to found Shopify in Canada, resulting in him becoming a billionaire at young age.
Just recently he offered Select an internship at Shopify on grounds of his progaming career and achievements in SC2.
Now he just doubled the HSC XX prize pool. He is active on reddit and might use TL, so thank you Tobi!

Didn't see it here at first, this is so awesome, wow.
|
So awesome - astounding to see the passion he still has for Starcraft and his generosity is so appreciated. Would not be surprised to see Shopify's name as a sponsor for future events!
|
So 2€ for the winner of the waterslide competition? Nice.

Billionaire starcraft fans, best starcraft fans.

If I was a blizzard employee I would be all over this guy trying to get a Shopify sponsorship.
Btw, long live rich starcraft fans that keep streams alive, double prize pools and create chinese teams for CTC.
