SC2 semi-professional Sterling has been streaming some BW lately, and he's been playing some decent games!
Sterling is no stranger to competition, having been a former BW player, poker player, chess enthusiast and a GM player in SC2: WoL and HOTS for the past decade. Sterling has played BW at a highly competitive level, playing at A- on iCCup before switching over to SC2.
His notable accomplishment in BW was defeating now EG.Suppy (aka. superiorwolf) in the 2010 WCG qualifier finals.
Come watch him relearn the joys of location hotkeys, siege tanks, science vessels, goliaths and the best RTS game :D! He commentates while playing so definitely give him some love <3333333.

Pretty entertaining stream
|
Sterling is the most courageous terran out there. If you're not watching his stream, you're missing out.
|
Wow, thanks! I've been having a lot of fun streaming BW. I'm about D or D+ rank now, but getting back into the swing of things.
See you on my stream!

streaming some good old BBS right now :D
|
And he hits D+!
EDIT: He lost D+ doing his BBSB build.
|
I was watching Sterling when he was playing SC2, really liked him, a lot of viewer interaction and entertainment, as well as being educational, so I look forward to watching him play BW :D
|
It's really interesting seeing him play. I've never heard of him before, but seeing somebody play after 2 years and actually at a competant level is very interesting.
|
playing vs the Zerg SenBirdie who's streaming as well :DDD

A-? and his only notable achievement was beating suppy? lol..what?
|
I'd like to know what account you were A- on, only a handful of foreigners; let alone Americans, ever got to A- so I'm having a lot of trouble believing you did.
Anyone who was A- would never be stuck around C- either, no matter how long they quit for; especially with how watered down ICC became.
|
He was B rank... chillax, aka iG.Sterling. He smurfed a lot.

sup david
lot of ppl lie about their rank, kind of like when pgt died and a few months later EVERY person's bnet profile you checked was like "A- high" , it's way worse with SC2 now. Anyone who played BW thinks they were professional

Decent players don't get A-.
Anyways, wasn't trying to hate or anything was kinda curious and doubtful but didn't mean anything disrespectful by it.

The account I reached A- on was fOsc.Sterling. I did it with a 94-32 record, and I ended the season at B+. You can see it in the history.
Thx all for watching. I'm eating now, but will probably be back at it soon. BW is fun!

http://kr.iccup.com/starcraft/gamingprofile/fOsc.Sterling.html I'm assuming he could get it if he has gone 98-51 B+.

oh more terran streams <3 I will check out your stream when you are streaming 
|
Lovely game with a lovely man, doesn't get much better than this!
Reminisce about old times of BW or take a look at it for the first time.
to all the people who doubt his rank, he did achieve A- rating.

If that's in reference to the beating Suppy thing, it's mistakenly referring to a WCG qualifier. Sterling like lost the first series to Suppy in the final 4 (double elimination) and then reached the finals needing to win 2 series against Suppy to advance to the WCG Finals. He did so. As for the A- thing, no idea why some people like to claim everyone is B rank or B-. You would think anyone that is C rank on iccup could qualify. It's insane.
|
Yes, I certainly did not win WCG 2010. I just qualified, and got smashed at the LAN tournament. Suppy is a fantastic player and a nice person, and certainly way better than me in SC2 (perhaps SC1 as well). I essentially never accomplished anything in BW, I was never one of the best foreigners. Perhaps I started playing too late, I only picked up the game in 2009, and was competing with people who had years of experience. I've had a blast playing BW, when I did. It is such a challenging and fun game!
I've had so much fun playing BW the last couple days, that I may continue to play it with some regularity. The challenge of it is very refreshing, compared to my last few thousand games of SC2.
If anybody wants to play me some games, don't hesitate to ask, of course!
|
When I'm done with these 2 research papers (due Nov. 5), I'll be happy to smash you =)
|
And I'm happy to watch you get smashed by Game.
|

He did breifly hit A- one season, but he dropped down and was solid B+ for a couple seasons. On average when playing he was about B- tho

Streaming live right now. Come tune in and help me figure out this awesome game!
|
Sterling not sure if you check this thread but last night you played a tvp against someone like toxic pro toss. Anyways you we 1rax fe, stim, +1, 5rax third while attacking. You went over the replay afterwards but I didn't get the exact bo. Can I get that replay?
|
I love your commentary. Great stream, hope to see you featured soon.
Much more educational than most of the featured streams.
|
I'll be streaming soon, and announcing my new team tonight.
|
Congrats Sterling on your new team. Just want to say I love watching your stream. You have awesome insights and strategies that really help me with my play. Wish you the best in the future!
