Hey guys, I'm Libo "Xenocider" Chang and I'll be streaming everyday (i'm not sure how much but I assure you I can't function without Starcraft). To start off I'd like to apologize for the douchebagy title, just something to draw you in >:D.
I am a 15 year old Terran player, I started sometime in early 2011, January-February and I'm ranked around 40 in GM. I'm not sure how popular the stream will get, but the revenue I make from streaming will go directly to my uncle's daughters tuition, so rest assured your time/advertisement viewing is not going towards a brand new mercedes for a future 16 year old kid.
I recently placed 11th in the MLG invite only qualifier taking out vVvGlon 2-0, EGHuK 2-1, and falling to Golden 1-2, being the only player (I think? I don't know the score of the finals) to take a game off Golden the entire qualifier. I would go on to lose 0-2 to QuanticIllusion, (losers bracket) 1-2 BinskiLighT and 1-2 oGsIllusion (consolation). Tough break but I almost made it, and I am partly the reason why you wont see HuK at MLG NYC summer arena haha.
I also went to MLG Anaheim but I fell off due to nerves making it only to the R6 Losers Bracket, hopefully I can perform better at MLG Raleigh.
Other than that, I don't have many accomplishments, I feel as if there are always well known Zerg/Protoss players who commentate their games and explain their strategy, but there have never been any Terran counterparts and in general Terran streamers.
Lastly I'd like to add that I don't and will never play Starcraft for money nor fame, I play to compete and hope that one day I can properly represent the U.S. in global Starcraft events.
And without further delay;

I don't think TL can accept that its part of a team channel so I won't be able to stream unfeatured for a while, but if you can follow it and you'll know whenever I play.

GL looking forward to see ur play!
|
I remember when I was your age playing SC:BW. Good old days when StarCraft actually required apm to be decent. Anyway, best of luck to you sir!!
|
Always nice to see young people be really good at starcraft.
|
Damn these are some pretty impressive credentials
|
you will never play sc2 for money or fame so you decided to stream, makes sense
User was temp banned for this post.

So young and already so good, I wish you all the best!
Also don't apologize for your music, it's your stream you do what you want. Personally I'd take classical piano over what most people are playing on their streams.

14 years old and already GM is quite impressive. Best of luck to you in your SC2 future, and I'll tune in when you are on.

Damn kids! Stop being better than me at starcraft... Best of luck to you man, ill be sure to tune in at some point.

What? You only have to do most of those things if you want to do those things. Assuming you want to graduate, you put in your 7-3 and do your homework and have the rest of your time to train SC2 if that's really what you want to do.
I didn't have any extracurricular activities in High School, just kicked it with friends and played computer games. 14 and GM is pretty impressive, good luck!
|
I will definitely be tuning in, just make sure your sound levels are ok.

Wait wait wait....... since when did age matter? I forgot when... GM. nice, age matteR? no. Putting the age in the name is just trying to bum for attention and just anoying.

Can't deny it works, though. A 14 year old is going to get a lot more attention than a 19-20 year old.

Why you gotta be like that Jakek95? Age, like gender, is a draw here. People will want to watch someone they know can have future success. Maruprime became popular first because he was so young. People saw that with his abilities and given his young age there was a lot of potential for him.
No one will force you to watch the stream, but when you advertise something, you use whatever draw you have.

Nah it's really not. Unless you are trying to go to a really really really good college you do not have to do what seeker said. I didn't.
All I did was ISATS and didn't worry about colleges until my senior year. I did no after school activities and no community service. Only reason you would do those is well either that's what you enjoy doing or you are trying to get to a good college. I am going to a college not omg top 10 in the us or anything but it does what I need and all my high school was gaming gaming gaming and hang out with friends

I checked out the stream for the commentary part and I was not disappointed.
|
I like your commentary! Keep doing the commentary while you play... fix your sound though
Very good and really bright for 14 :D I'll keep tuning in
|
Good luck, stay humble. Please.
|
That's basically just a prize in the form of tuition donations. I'm talking about scholarships on the level of college sports.
|
Wow, best of luck to you! Impressive.

Really great player, has a great mentality and a nice kid :D

Some high schools actually require community service in order to graduate... one I went to for a short while was something around 100 hours over the course your high school career. Was pissed I knocked out 40 hours before transferring to another school that required none.

I hear about you all the time and wonder "...how is this guy so good!?"
and now to learn that you're 14...and you play T!?
Pretty sure my brain exploded!
But yeah, good luck and I'm sure I'll be hearing about you some more. Hope to play you one of these days on ladder!

Of course it's an attention drawer, like everything. If he put GM T streaming, it would also be accurate, but he wouldn't have as many views as if he writes 14 year old GM T streaming. He's simply stating something unique about his stream and telling people why they should tune in to him instead of another GM T. It's marketing and he's doing it right.

You sound pretty legit and make me jealous of your exploits. GLHF Keep the mentality and if you win something ill be happy knowing it helps with someones education
|
Nice stream quality, 60 fps or something. Definitely higher than a default stream. Your APM is really high btw Just add a webcam and you're all set. The commentary is great as well Keep it up, you'll be beating koreans in a few years! 
|
I like his commentary. He sounds very mature for his age; had a hard time believing he was 14. Will be following his streams.

LOL. PSAT is one 3-hour test. Same for SAT. Same for ACT. College applications for me consisted of two 1-hr applications. After school activities are things you do for FUN. Community service hours are unnecessary -- if you do them, cool, you're a good person, but don't act like you're forced to.
Sorry for the rant, but people get too high-octane sometimes about those "requirements". OP will have plenty of time for SC2 if he decides to prioritize it.
So far I enjoyed your commentary and playstyle. I'll probably tune into this stream if Beastyqt isn't playing. Cause he's just a boss.

A bit early at puberty, but nice stream :D.

Haha, Starcraft didn't even exist until years after I was 14. Maybe if it had, I wouldn't suck so much now
I will definitely watch when I get a chance!

Hm, impressive - but you honestly don't really sound like a 14 year old in terms of voice.
Keep it up!

he's become my favourite streamer in about 5 minutes of watching him. he's so damn good and his commentary is one of the best for terran. really sick. like demuslim-good-commentary at least.

Really nice stream I definitely recommend it, beats most of the featured streams in entertainment value.

lol. I did not of that.
Only the super nerdy Asian kids do PSATs anyways, and almost no one I know actually studied for the SATs or ACTs. Generally speaking I did not feel they were very important tests (the SAT at least, I didn't take any practice tests or take the ACTs). I went into the SAT with a massive hangover from partying the night before and wrote my college application the actual day it was due, including the essays, without having them proofread. Before it sounds like I'm bragging, I would put myself in the majority of the people with this mentality that went to the same college as me, UCI. Although no Ivy League, it's still ranked 13 for public universities in the nation. And everyone I know that went to Stanford or Berkeley (sample size: 5) didn't study extensively either - they might have taken a practice course, and worked on their college applications for a week or so, but that's it.
High school is a joke compared to college in terms of stress. If you're stressing out ridiculously in high school, something is wrong, and you just stress out easily. Only thing has school has is a shitton of time consuming busy work, but it doesn't matter, because you never have to worry about scoring well on tests because not only are they super easy as long as you listened in lecture (which you have to attend, you're in high school), but all tests combined are like 35% of your grade.
I did less than 5 hours of community service as well.

I'm glad that you found a path that was comfortable for you, but there are a lot of people in high school who take academics seriously enough for undergrad admissions at top American universities to be extremely competitive.

hey i'm 14 yr old GM too! : P
Why do people think that being young means that you will play worse? :/
EDIT: Although, I'm still not as good as this guy!
Best of luck man! I will watch your streaaaaaaaaaaam <3

He made it sound as if that was the norm. I graduated with over a 4.0 and 24 units for AP credits, I did fine and took academics "seriously." But what he is stipulating is absolutely ridiculous. And it's not like 13 in the nation for public universities is low tier either. Even to get into a school like Stanford, you didn't need to prepare anywhere near a level that would be "like hell."

Yes, but even if you do all of the above it doesn't eat up all your time, especially if your smart AND efficient with time management and schoolwork. No, you won't be able to play SC easily for 4-6+ hours everyday, but it's still possible to have plenty of time for a "life" on the side.

Oh man. I'm 14 too. Not nearly as good...

Ooh, up and comer, and an American AND Terran to boot, I'll definitely keep an eye out for your upcoming results :D. Also, to people trying to dismiss age - seriously? It's not that tough of a concept. Young = more potential. More time to play [in terms of having many years ahead of them], more malleability and thus potential for growth, etc.
While that comment from syriuszonito was out of line, there is some understandable confusion due to the phrasing of the OP. You should edit to point out that you are not playing with the sole purpose or intent of merely making money/becoming famous, but for the thrill of competition/repping the US and whatnot.

Ah an extremely good point I suppose, me streaming really has nothing to do with though, I am streaming TO pay for my Uncle's Daughter's tuition, I don't know her, infact I've never even talked to her but I know her father is extremely irresponsible, and I've heard she's really smart, so I decided I would help her out.

This reminds me of when I was in 11th grade and recent graduates from my school had come back to visit. They we're talking about how crazy demanding college was and how you'd have to write a 10 page paper every week (keep in mind these people were freshmen). Yeah, I quickly learned once I started going to the same college they all did that that comment was complete bullshit.
This stuff is only necessary if you want to go to an ivy league school and you don't come from any form of a wealthy background. I applied to one college (UCSD), the week before the application was due, after I had regain consciousness from being knocked out to get my wisdom teeth pulled (I'm not even lying here). I Never did after school stuff because I was a bus student. Community service, lol wtf did you commit a misdemeanor and get your jail time converted or something? I took a PSAT I didn't study for (my mother pushed me to do it), I took an SAT I didn't study for. It's been too long for me to ever remember what the ACTS is (sounds familiar though).
As sad as this is going to come off, I think the main reason I got accepted was because I wrote a good sob story for my personal statement; talking about how my parents divorced at 6, I never really had a steady household to live in, my family doesn't have much money, I'd be the first person in my family to go to college, etc etc, that cliche crap. And while technically that shit is true, it's not like it ever had any baring on me psychologically or on my schooling.
TLDR: Most of that stuff in the quote is unnecessary (save for SATS, obv. college apps), come up with a good sob story showing how you've overcome adversity in your life.

^^
not sure if thats the most reliable route haha
Also I got a few messages asking what happened in the BO3 vs AL.Darkangel in Playhem. Basically Playhem has Ohana LE and Daybreak LE so there are no supply depots at the bottom of the ramp, g1 on Ohana I decided to 11/11rax with the intent of blocking the bottom of the ramp with 2 bunkers, I did so and it resulted in a win. However DarkAngel wanted a re-game because Playhem shouldnt have such a odd tournament map pool, talked to admins an was denied. I ended up agreeing to the re-game because I felt like I was abusing something that would never happen in real tournament play (barring Nestea vs ByuN haha). The score reset to 0-0 and he Roach rushed me and won the first set, but I came back 2-1 with a 2rax/3oc bio expand.
tl;dr playhem really needs to change their map pool.

not sure if thats the most reliable route haha
Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not saying my experience is reliable but rather a lot of that extraneous stuff is not necessary. I wont deny that it does help though. If you wanna go the "better to be safe than sorry" route, all power to you. I (and obviously many others in this thread) are just trying to convey one doesn't HAVE to do these things to get into a decent university (GPA > Community Service any day). My sophomore - senior years were not stressful, nor need they be. There will be plenty of time for stress in college if you want to continue your education into graduate school and a PhD program. (However if you want just simply an undergraduate degree, there really isn't that much stress in that either.)
Actually on that note, this is probably the best advice I can give. Before you ever start your undergrad, consider if you even want to continue into a graduate program and further. Myself and a lot of people I know simply just went into college because it was simply what was suppose to naturally come next. But if you don't really have a plan for what you want to do after you get your undergrad, you may end up feeling lost while racking up some good debt (assuming your parent wouldn't fit 100% of the bill). And college is where extracurricular stuff really starts to matter since it's stuff like that that starts to pad a resume; stuff like internships and whatnot, whether you plan to go to graduate school or just try to simply get a job after your undergrad. Take advantages of the resources your college provide you. They are there for a reason. They expect you to ask for help or to ask about the opportunities they can offer.
Sorry to sidetrack your thread, so to stay on track I say GL to your SC2 endeavors. It's always great to see up and coming NA players (and looking at your results, you definitely seem to be that).

Where dat snitch at?37025 Posts
I think I have to explain why I said what I said.
My family always have high expectations. I'm also the youngest of four so it was essential that I got into a big name college.
I was really lazy in my high school years. Only after I got into Purdue did I truly realize I behind I was. I knocked out high school too simply. Now in college, I'm suffering because I have 0 studying experience.
Which is why I said what I said. I did everything I mentioned but I did it abysmally. Just barely got into Purdue :/
Just saying, if you put in the effort now, it'll be easier in the future
|
Your post really impressed me. So young, yet so mature.
I sincerely wish you all the best!
|
Don't really understand your explanation at all. How do you realize you're behind after you get into a college? Do you mean it's the only place you got in? I didn't study whatsoever in high school in didn't have problems adopting ridiculous study methods in college (although at least that part wasn't a joke, it definitely is necessary to study for midterms/finals if you want A's as opposed to high school).
If you did everything you mentioned abysmally you definitely should not have had a miserable time in high school^^. If I could go back to high school with some perspective, I'd probably put in less effort, lol.
And if you got into Purdue for engineering, then you're probably quite good^^. While overall they might be ranked more so midtier they have a top engineering program, right?

Highly overrated, and inefficient imho. You are better off getting all of your electives and basic classes at a Regionally/Nationally accredited Community College and transfer to whatever school you want to go to (transfers are a lot easier than going the SAT/ACT route...also not to mention many colleges are de-emphasizing the SAT/ACT's). It is a lot cheaper this way and is much easier imho (don't have to waste your time with SAT/ACT / Applications / Community Service / etc.).
I know at my 4 year CC (Florida is one of the rare States with CC's allowed Bachelor programs), you are guaranteed to transfer into USF, UF, FSU, as long as you have the grades. If you want to save tens of thousands of dollars or more and get the same education or better (most of my Profs come from USF/Other State Universities) due to much lower class sizes, then go this route.

Thread is offtopic btw
Anyway, was planning on cranking out a lot of games today, got glued to this xD. Quite amazing. Commentary was well done and insightful, karaoke was hilarious. Learned a lot actually. gg wp.
mic was a little quiet though. The static in the background wasn't really a problem since it was quiet enough to be drowned out by the ambient game noises.

Hi, I really love your stream already
Really good commentary, in an english that I can understand just perfectly, it not being my best language.
Your also playing very good, I think that I finally found a stream of a Terran that I like watching more.
Watching White-Ra and TLO as T is not as educational I think.^^
I also really like your maturity.
You just know the other person played better then you and dont blame balance or whatever for your loss.
Big respect for that
I suggest tho to get a webcam and fix your microphone (With the background noises)
If you buy a some kind of quality Cam you normally can use the built-in microphone if your PC is not too loud
I use a Logitech Lifecam Cinema HD and its really awesome, but my PC is also kinda silent.
I hope you will stream a lot of games :D
looking forward to it
|
Hey man, frigging great streaming session last night. Wasn't able to watch it all (maybe just 2 hours or something) but it was pretty amazing Loved the commentary about the game, explaining your decision making etc.

Enjoy it buddy. The minute you enter your sophomore year of high school it's going to be hell. PSATS/SATS/ACTS/College Applications/After School Activities/Community Service Hours/College Applications again/HELL lol. I did not of that. Only the super nerdy Asian kids do PSATs anyways, and almost no one I know actually studied for the SATs or ACTs. Generally speaking I did not feel they were very important tests (the SAT at least, I didn't take any practice tests or take the ACTs). I went into the SAT with a massive hangover from partying the night before and wrote my college application the actual day it was due, including the essays, without having them proofread. Before it sounds like I'm bragging, I would put myself in the majority of the people with this mentality that went to the same college as me, UCI. Although no Ivy League, it's still ranked 13 for public universities in the nation. And everyone I know that went to Stanford or Berkeley (sample size: 5) didn't study extensively either - they might have taken a practice course, and worked on their college applications for a week or so, but that's it. High school is a joke compared to college in terms of stress. If you're stressing out ridiculously in high school, something is wrong, and you just stress out easily. Only thing has school has is a shitton of time consuming busy work, but it doesn't matter, because you never have to worry about scoring well on tests because not only are they super easy as long as you listened in lecture (which you have to attend, you're in high school), but all tests combined are like 35% of your grade. I did less than 5 hours of community service as well.
^Honestly, apply to like 5 colleges max, and just use common sense for the SATs and college apps. Shouldn't be too damn hard.

I saw this guy play in TSL and I was really impressed with the games I managed to watch

Agree, though I didn't realize how fast that stuff was coming, nor was prepared as well (informatively, my school didn't tell us any of this shit) as I would have liked, so it wasn't until the start of my Junior year that I started preparing for tests. Then Senior year was HELL. I'm so fucking glad I'm through that.
But yeah depends how much you want to commit to school and how high of a college you want to get into, etc. etc. Not like you can't study during matchmaking/loading time anyways

For me even when high school was at it's hardest points, I do not think that it ever really stopped me from doing other things. I guess trying to play StarCraft at a competitive level is something I never really tried, but I do not think that high school gets in the way too much. As long as you can manage time well it is not a problem.

dude, 14 years old and already gm? you should seriously consider going pro.

Just tuned in to the stream for the first time. The commentary's good; you can tell he works out why he won or lost as he's communicating it, which I think is better than working it out and then telling people about it (people tend to be biased if they do the latter). Not taking into account his age, it's a good stream to watch (that isn't to say that his age is a pro or a con for me, but a lot of people tend to view younger players in either a good or bad light without knowing anything about their play).
|
Yes! The future wave of pro-gamers!
<3
I will be sure to check your stream!

I feel like shit now, Thank you.

Just watched your stream again for like an hour -you don't wanna know how late it's for me right now...- and I have to give some huge props to you. My first impressions from yesterday were confirmed, you're probably already one of the best Terran Streamers out there, in terms of learning something as a viewer. Awesome mindset and maturity. Really, keep it up and consider going pro by joining a big team. I think you really have the potential to achieve great things if you are interested in a career like that.

my uncle's daughter has a very irresponsible father and is a really smart girl, i've never met her but I think she really deserves to go to college, probably much more so than my self considering how much work she puts in. My parents are well-off enough to handle atleast 1 or 2 years of my college but if she doesn't recieve any help she wont go to college at all, and since its China there's no government loans etc.
thanks everyone for the positive/negative feed back I use it to improve my stream and you guys really motivate me to keep streaming! I'll be back tomorrow with awesome terran action

I love what your doing with your proceeds. Amazing attitude you have. Keep it up

Great stream, I like how you analyze your game, sounds like you have a great understanding. I wish I was this good at BW back when I was 14. Keep it up :D
|
F*ck Yea ! Love to see some fellow Terrans doing well! I don't know but is it racism, when you always cheer for the Terran because you're Terran yourself?
Good Luck with your stream I hope you can continue to do well. I'm sad that you're on the US Servers because I'd like to play with you sometime.
|
I really love his stream he is really cocky but gets away with it with his skill! Not to mention his age! Overall good stream will tune in later! If your looking for a stream to laugh, learn and enjoy check his out!

Don't ever stop playing Joe Hisaishi he is my favorite composer and like him a lot cause of the work he did in the Hayao Miyazaki Films. I will be watching
|
Every Terran can learn from this guy, he is able to fully commentate what he thinking in every situation which really helps you learn how to deal with the situation. Also he doesn't whine about the game or balance, every time he loses he points out things he could have done to win the game.

|
|
best of luck libo, i'll always be a fan bro
|
Have you ever considered streaming on twitch? It is less laggy and also opens up viewing to iDevice users.
|
Favorited on TL streams!
|
Really informative high-level stream, Terrans should watch!
|
|
|
Sick talent over there, I wish I was 14 again and have so much free time to play *sigh*
Anyway I make sure to tune in from time to time.
Also don't apologize for your music style, don't you never ever do that again!
|
I actually played against you a long time ago when I was considering joining Binary Gaming. I was very impressed by how well you played and how much talent you had. I'm glad to see you getting more involved in the community and streaming.

Nice stream. I was doodling around with age of empires 2 when I was 14.. I recall I liked making walls and castles everywhere, and never attacked until I was maxed.
I'm getting a little scared of how good the next generation might be at that age :/

YO this guy is off the chain, just caught his stream from a friend and man this guy is too sweet! talks with the chat and commentates while he plays and is only 14 years old. he is going places
|
Please feature Xenocider. If TeamLiquid wants to help educate fellow Starcraft players, this would certainly be a stream to feature. Xenocider is a great teacher and a great Terran!
|
I really like your stream with commentary! Keep it up!
|
feature xenocider up and coming young USA terran
|
Please feature! He's absolutely incredible to watch!
|
This guy is really awesome. His commentary is top notch + no ads. All coming from a 14 yr old! TL should definitely feature this guy.
|
This guy is seriously legit. Its incredibly how much talent he have compared to how old he is. And the fact that he is able to commentate while making sick plays really shows the skills this kid got. Great stream, highly recommend it!
|
Xenocider legit. Owns GM's while talking us through his strategies. Must feature.
|
This kid is legit. TL should make him a featured streamer!!!!!! GOGOGOGOGO
|
This kid should def be feature on TL !
|
really great commentary. put him on sponsored streams!! very educational and interactive with chat. This kid is young and talented. lets hear it for some new terran blood.
|
Best of luck! Like your stream, hope you get featured.
|
Hope you get featured.
Why you should be.
1.Good Music
2.Great Commentary
3. Even greater play....
Extremely educational, and no raging. (least from what I've seen)
Do NOT change the MUSIC PLEASE.... Theres plenty of Dubstep/Kpop streams going around, I've played piano since 6 years old. Really appreciate the music selection.
|
|
|
I really hope you get featured! You deserve it.
|
Great streamer, I love how you explain everything you are thinking/doing when you are playing. Keep up the good work!
|
Holy crap what the fuck why isn't he featured? He's 14 and has an actual sense of humor!
Also he isn't someone that would complain about balance, which is always good.
|
Amazing stream. Great commentary and a super nice guy! Plus he's really good!
|
Feature Xenocider! Would be a great to have another great Terran streamer
|
Entertaining stream, hope you get featured.
|
He's fantastic. Really smart kid with FAST fucking hands. Good music, he answers everything you ask him in chat, REALLY good commentary (he'll talk about what's going on no matter what pressure he's under in the game and aims to educate). Also I feel really bad for him for having such strict parents. Give the kid a break!
|
one of the better multitasking streamers out there. Explains his train of thought and what he see that a normal player would not.
I like the fact that he is able to vocally verbalize what to look out for and what he expects with al the information he has at hand.
Well done, keep up the good work
|
I really hope you get featured. Great play and comentary!
|
GM Streamer who commentates and interacts with the chat better than any Terran streamer I've seen. He def. deserves to be a featured streamer!
|
|
|
Yeah this guy should totally be featured. The fact that I've actually been bothered to make a Team Liquid account mostly to support him should be a testament to how good his stream is. His play is high level, his commentary is awesome and his viewer interaction is top notch. Top, top stream.
|
excellent stream. thank you
|
You should really feature this guy, he's incredible to listen to and watch.
|
|
|
Great streamer..he should be featured

i really enjoyed his stream.

Love this kid's stream, the commentary is top notch...dude is very mature for his age, very knowledgable, got tons of skill, tons of potential, this dude is just a beast. Please feature!!!
|
Please feature him Team Liquid. Possibly the best NA Terran streamer at the moment besides QXC.
|
Xeno deserves to be featured, he plays at very high GM level with great commentary for Terran players of every level. He is also averaging a lot more viewers since switching from own3d to twitch.
|
I agree with da other guys ^_^ this guy is amazing.. and most of all its impressive how mature he is :o considering he's 14 :D
|
Thanks everyone for tuning in today! Averaged about 400-500 viewers I'm so happy T_T i hope you all learned something and I'll be back streaming tomorrow for sure :D GG's!

|
|

Found this stream via reddit yesterday and it's really educational for sure. Good quality, cam and mic with constant high level commentary and he is like the nicest guy ever from what I've seen.
A must watch for any Terran at least.
|

super insightful commentary!
|
this guy so reminds me of myself at 14 >_>
|
awesome player,who really helping other terrans
feature him!
|
more mature than most players of sc2 at such a young age, wants to raise money for his mother's operation.
feature him!!
|
Xenocider should be freatured, because he is like the most handsome guy ever.
|
 Xenocider should be featured because hes an ok guy
|
Xeno is the real deal. He's a regular streamer that lots of us Terran players have been waiting for. Solid Grandmaster play with awesome commentary.
|
Go feature this guy!
|
|
|
He's really good and he commentates throughout all of his games. Also interacts with the chat.
A must watch stream for terrans.
Edit: case in point, he is asking the chat whether they want him to mech or go bio vs his opponent.
|
|
|
Dont mess with Lebo's mech :D
|
super fun to watch, has a real personality and always is talking about the game and analysis most after game.
|
Kids sick! Check out his stream, get him featured
|

Ever since JZ told me he knew this 8th grade gosu Terran kid I've been following you cause you're going to be the next super bonjwa and I will enjoy being a hipster for once!

I really enjoyed your stream! You're incredibly smart for your age, I was really impressed! Keep it up! + I love your attitude! Feature him!!
|
Feature this guy please Teamliquid! I registered just to say this.
I have watched a lot of streams from Demuslim, Q Illusion and MKP etc but this is by far the stream I learn the most from.
He is well spoken, and explains what he's doing during GM gameplay what I don't often see people do.

Dude is awesome! Mannered, informative, entertaining! He really has to get featured!

Actually, age is pretty important in e-sports.
Not just because it's novel for a younger kid to be in the scene, but because teams and sponsors are well-aware that if a kid shows that much potential at such a young age, there's a possibility for a longer and more fruitful career. If he starts later on in life, he'll have fewer years to play, as handspeed and reaction time *eventually* slow down.
Also, the rest of his achievements are rather impressive for someone who's just starting out.
OP: Good luck, kid!
EDIT: I'm watching your stream now and it's pretty entertaining
|
it looks so easy when u play seriously :s
|
awesome stream.
commentating, entertaining, playing mech vs toss.
should get featured.
|
Things I like in a streamer:
1) Is entertaining and knowledgeable.
2) Describes build orders and reasoning behind decisions.
3) Interacts with fans/chat.
4) Trolls occasionally.
Am I missing anything? Feature please, TL!
|
Libo should really be featured, the stream is so informative and helpful for all Terrans, he also interact alot with the people watching the stream.
|
This guy is a complete baller and his stream is the best one out there, you learn more from 10 minutes watching this guy than watching mkp for 10 hours. Feature now or I will jump off a bridge kkthx.
|
Entertaining, informative, and always on.
This guy is probably my favorite streamer right now. After watching his streams for two days I don't find it fun watching anyone elses because they don't commentate!
|
|
|
|
|
I definitely endorse this stream, this kid knows what he's talking about and listens to chat for build requests and whatnot. Keep up the good work!
|
Impressive game play for a fourteen year old. Comparable to TrumpSC style of streaming. Been watching him for the last few days for a few minutes each time, and with each night I've been able to pick up a thing or two because of his commentating.
Keep up the good work bro!
|
can't believe this kid is only 14 years old. very mature and great gameplay.
|
One of the best streams i've seen in awhile, reminds me of quantic illusion before mlg providence =)
|
You gotta feature that stream TL! This guy is so knowledgeable for his age, and very eloquent. He talks about his decisions while playing, which not many streamers are capable to do. I don't even play Terran at all, but I feel like I'm learning small things about decision making, etc.
Definitely in my top 4 of streamers, feature it now
|
|
|
I would respect you more if you lost the (faked?) modesty, and if you pooled the cash for that mercedes you mentioned.
There's no need for you to act a hero and save money for your uncle's daughter wtf, she'll be fine without you, while you'll give up on neat stuff unneccesarily imo.
|
thi guy's rly awesome, first time regulargly watching a terran cuz i only watch toss cuz im toss
he has great commentary and amazing personality
other streamers sighs and gets amd when they lose n stuff, he actually plays the game and haves fun haha
plz Feature him, he really deserves it

Well I don't even run ads on my stream so it might be a long while til I get that Mercedes >_< I don't take donations and any coaching I do is in huge bursts and is also free. You're actually right, I told my parents I wanted to donate my stream money to charity but they said, why don't you send it to someone like your cousin, who needs it and you actually know? Turns out my parents were just saying that to stop me from donating the money to charity, and my cousin has more than enough for her education. So for now I'll focus on the enjoyment of my viewers and I may run ads in the forseeable future, but not now.

TL, please feature this kid! He's one of the best streamers atm.
GJ Xeno! Keep it up!
|
This guy is a star in the making. Really clear understanding of the game, his strategies seem so well thought out, tried and tested, and backed with spectacular mechanics. What I love about his gameplay is he always seems to have a plan, no matter what situation he is in. He has come back from absolutely crazy all-ins by just keeping his cool and striking back with sublime multitasking. Being only 14 years old to boot, he reminds me of a young chess prodigy. And to top all it off, he manages to play while providing useful and often times funny commentary for the community.
He is one of the few streams I still watch now that I've quit. I hope TL features him so he gets the recognition he deserves.

My favorite 14 year-old right here.

My uncle's daughter's
It's called a cousin.

You have to just play more. How many years you have played the game doesn't mean anything if you avarage like 5 games per day. How many games per day do you play at an avarage?

he is a bawss feature him!
|
|
|
|

Haven't caught him live but just watched some vods, will definitely be checking to see when he is on line now . Seems like a pretty cool guy.
|
|
|
he deserves to be featured >_>, got to mid masters again from mid-high dia because of his useful commentary!
Really good knowledge you can learn alot. He has more viewers unfeatured then some featured people and thats not easy. This should show that people really wanna watch him.
Thats my opinion atleast.
|
I am a huge fan of really excellent terran streamers especially those with educational aspects like QXC and Trump- I am now adding Xeno to this list because of how he explains every single move he makes as he makes it- something that not alot of streamers do- definitely going to be watching Xeno closely!!!!

Great commentary, love the stream <3
|
|
|
This kid should be featured! Doing really nice analyzes and stuff!
|
THIS GUY THIS GUY is my favorite terran stream <3
|
Holy! I tuned into this stream when he first announced it and I came back after not looking at TL streams for a while and looking for this name and see almost 1k people looking at this stream. Very nice stuff man! Keep it up.
|
huge CONGRATS to you bro, great playing over all today, and great parenting by your mom.
|
First time viewer, and you've made a fan of me. You're freakin good, man! TL needs to feature this kid!
Edit: Holy shit! That was a freaking incredible series.
+ Show Spoiler +2-1-1'd TSL Ragnarok. Ridiculous games, tie game was goddamn nailbiting.
|
Honestly my favorite streamer. I've watched since he started, and he can explain the game knowledge so well even while playing on such a high level.
|

I remember a few weeks ago he only had 50 viewers now it jumped to nearly 1k! I've been a fan since he first started streaming and he does some great in game analyzing.
|
Congrats on 1k xenocider!
|
Averaged about 800-900 viewers tonight, peaked at 1200 ^_^ , had a blast i'll be back again tomorrow, got 2nd in Playhem
2-1 GLSnute, 2-1 TSLRagnarok 1-2 MVPNoblesse, oh well Koreans haha gg's!
|
First time today that I seriously watched his stream, but I have to say that this is easily one of the better terran streams on TL. Plays at a very high level and commentates alot during his games explaining the thought process behind everything he is doing. Really helpful for a lower level terran player like me. Congrats on the Playhem run as well!
|
Enjoyed the stream tonight, exciting games and very good play from Xeno. Will tune in again for sure!
|
Ridiculously good player, he varies his play a lot so as a player that plays against him often, its hard to predict what he will do next. He also loves to show the replay of him beating me on Cloud Kingdom with cloaked banshees. Anyway, good stream to learn from, and he will only get better as time goes on.
|
did he win against ragnarok yesterday?
smart kid, im impressed how good insight and mechanics he has with just 14 years.
|
Yeah he won, very good games. He got huge potential imo, with some more practice he could be on the top of the NA players.
|
when are u going to stream?

|
I love this stream so much!
|
|
|
You should change your info to 15 years old now.
|
One of my favorite streamers hands down!
|
Retardedly good terran streaming playhem, do watch.
|
been watching this stream for a while, glad to see he's back! great gameplay and great commentary
|
14 year old gm? I have to say, I'm impressed, even if its just laddering. Hope you enjoy the game to the fullest, and make the right decisions about your future!
|
|
|
Please don't switch to LoL bro, you have too much potential to waste it on that.
|
Hey guys... sorry... I have to start running ads. ._. I think best case scenario is that I negotiate with them to donate half the ad revenue to Charity. (Although I don't think I'll make barely anything to begin with) Also, Streaming!

This stream is actually very funny.
There's absolutely almost no decent T streamers left aside from the usual (Kas/Thorzain and the random korean player of the day)
I think this guy is a candidate for being a replacement to the old and now lost Trump/Sterling
He's good, fast and he talks while talking which makes it funny
I hope TL features him soon

You are so right.
Go Teamliquid, do it for esports!
This guy needs more attention.
|
Xenocider is by far the most enjoyable Terran streamer (next to Livinpink). He interacts with the chat all the time, talks during games, and gives his thought-process about the game. This goes without mentioning he is 14 and up to GM level.
Teamliquid, open your eyes and feature this Terran right now !
Keep up the good work Xeno, a frequent watcher of your stream :D
|
oh man I forgot about this guy.. I was following the stream for a week or two when I discovered it and completely forgot about his stream until now. I added to favorites so I wont be missing out anymore
|
so young and so much skill. Wonder how you will be in lets say 4 years.

Never seen your stream appear on here before, quite enjoying this. Bit of talkthrough is always nice, a lot of the featured streamers have stopped doing this so much so it's nice to see your thought processes as you are playing
Hopefully you can get a feature sometime, more deserving than some for sure.
|
Seems like a pretty good stream.
|
p.s.s. I apologize for my music selection, it's mostly classical piano (go Joe Hisaishi, if enough people don't like it I can turn it off or change it to something else!)
no need to apologize for listening to awesome music
also wanna say "playing to compete and not for money/ fame" is something very desirable in my eyes
best of luck for you with the stream
|
Nice stream, I am enjoying it~
Will tune in when possible.
|
;_; I'm 14 and only mid diamond
