Wow...anyone got a transcript of that? That was the most epic speech ever. That is the most profound thing I've heard in a looooong time.

MOD EDIT:

" I'm gonna be talking my own things now as there isn't anything important to translate.

First of all I'd like to say I have a great respect for NesTea not just because he won the tournament but because this guy had the courage to do what he wanted to do and proved he was right.I'm saying this because too many people even in Korea consider playing games is a waste of time.I, myself, was unemployed for 2 years *laughs*, bout a year and a half before I joined GOM.All I did was play games at home and my friends would say that I'm wasting my life.Well...uhm..who's laughing now ?. I asked them " Can you honestly say that you like your job " and I asked them " Do you have a fan who draws a fanart just for you ? ". That shuts them up.

So everytime you feel ashamed of being a nerd and your friends, teachers, neighbours and even parents think gaming is a waste of time you'll remember there's no such thing as wasting life as long as you have the courage to do what you like and be passionate about it.You'll remember , if NesTea listened to all those critics he wouldn't be standing there with a trophy and you'll remember that even if you feel nobody around you supports you that I, Jay, Artosis and Tasteless, everyone in GOM will support you.Why ? Because we believe in esports. *someone in the backgroud :"wow" * *Junkka laughs* .I actually prepared this"

Sorry if I butchered any words.

I swear to god I could not agree more with what john was saying and all the crap people give people for playing games and/or being a nerd. That was possibly the most epic gaming related speech i've ever heard.

He prepared a speech that was like 100% based on Nestea winning. It's a conspiracy! Pretty powerful speech though, keep it up.

Definitely the most inspirational and heart touching speech I have EVER heard from somebody regarding esports.

Nothing is cooler than being proud of what you do and love, and I dont think anybody can put it better than he did.
