i don't think wow is a game that takes a whole lot of skill (i think it's ridiculously easy, actually), but when people who can't even post on AJ called zilea bad at wow here on TL it sort of bothers me
if you guys want to call him bad at sc2 go for it, that's your thing, but calling people like nadagast only "decent" really sounds like you just hate anyone that comes from wow
i don't even play wow anymore and i've been trying to get all my friends to switch over to sc2, as a matter a fact i'm trying to teach someone the basics right now I'm really not hating on people from wow, I'm just seeing results thus far from them, and it is what it is, I just read Shield was also from wow, he's decent as well I mean have you seen nadagast being able to compete with top players as of late? gotta be realistic there, I've met him, I think he's a great guy, but right now he's not up there I don't think nadagast is playing much recently, not really attending events. I do remember last year when he played both sc2 and WoW at mlg he was placing top 12 top 10 in the sc2 event. Also while duel gaming he was playing like 1 game of sc2 a day, and like I said I don't think he is training hard to be super good at it right now. Citing results from a year ago are meaningless. For perspective on how long ago this was: mvp, nada, boxer, nestea, july either hadn't transitioned or were irrelevant because they hadn't played long enough. Results today are far more meaningful as the game is far more competitive than it has ever been
Anybody who needs to cite results from beta/early retail to prove a point usually only proves how weak their argument is. The game was broken as fuck, the maps were trash, and terran was imbalanced back then. however, right now the game is quite balanced, the builds are refined and the competition is a lot stronger so if he wins anything noteworthy right now i'll give him 100% full credit

UPDATE: STREAM DATE DELAYED BY ONE DAY. My new pc arrived and apparently the power button got damaged on shipping, so I'm going to take the PC to where I bought it so they can replace the tower.

I could go back to WoW today and play at an equal or greater level than I played months ago no problem, but in SC after just a week of not playing I feel sloppy as hell.
nobody is bragging, how is this hard to understand

Does Zilea still have a sponsorship? I'm just curious who pays him to play SC2 and why. They gain nothing from paying him, no exposure at top tournaments since his skill level is so low and can't really bring over a following from WoW since nobody even liked him there. I find it hard to believe theres a team or sponsor that feels they can gain any advertising from him.
Also half of the people in this thread need to learn to post on TeamLiquid if you intend to stick around, I know the transition from WoW to the real world can be hard, but this can be your first step.

What I don't understand is how any organization is even sponsoring someone like Zilea with all this evidence of poor sportsmanship. Does the organization he represents condone this? Since he writes for SixJax, aren't those the same people Artosis works with?
Also, the thing about the 75k, isn't that suppose to be split amongst Veex and Valrath?

This is exactly what I mean, you may get some slack when you are new but this adds nothing to the thread and one liners may ultimately get you a vacation and sometimes permanently.

Exactly my point above, I don't believe that he is still getting paid, and if he is then someone needs to tell his sponsors to drop him since he isn't helping them at all.
And yes that 75k was split 3 ways after tax.

No you are entitled to whatever opinion you want. You don't need to insult everyone in the thread to do so however.

how is this not insulting? :s

If you are insulted by a comment about the behavior of a very general group of people then maybe you fall into that group and need to grow a thicker skin. I'm not personally insulting anyone - I'm making a statement about the behavior of the former WoW community in this thread.

Although I would have phrased it differently, my sentiments are similar.

I'm not trying to argue it's just my personal opinion that Nadagast is a strong player and could be good if he wanted to put in the time. Just like it is your opinion the game is "quite balanced" right now.
