Quantic CEO went missing 2 weeks ago while HyuN is owned over 23.000$ and he's considering retirment.

Well, HyuN made over 7000$ thanks to yesterday's stream & donations. He will with us this 2014

Now, this is something I 1000% reccomend you to read, a very interesting & enjoyable article about MMA carreer, written by the one and only thoorin. It's a long read, but very worthwhile.

MMA - StarCraft 2 persistent overachiever (The career story of Mun MMA Seong Won)

Nice article
Everybody's who know what is Starcraft should read it.
Have you anything about another gamers?

I mean Idra or Marine King for Example.

Yes, Thoorin is one of the best (if not the best) eSports journalist out there, he has a huge record of articles & interviews. For instance:

The Tyrants journey home - Jaedongs road to his first real StarCraft 2 title

The Toil of Foreign SC2s King Beyond the Wall


You can also find more articles, as well as a lot of deep players interviews ('grilled' ones) here

1-2 years ago I was gold-plat, but right now I can't play (my pc fails to run, I have to bring it to repair), but I don't usually play anyway, since my pc is quite bad and barely can run SC2.

But I'm here more than anything else for watching SC2, just like any other sport

Have not played ranked StarCraft since I was 16. And well, that is quite, quite long ago.

Kane journey on today's WCS America qualifier. He was DQ twice yet still moved on. Priceless.


Context:

11:40 AM : I log on, enter the WCS Chat channel and wait for my opponent

12:00 Noon: I'm still waiting for my opponent, I have not received any messages

12:30 PM: Our teamhouse gets hit with DDoS so I have to change locations, which I figure is okay since I will get a walkover anyways. Before I leave I manage to get a hold of my opponent and ask him to wait 20 minutes, which he reluctantly agrees to (even though I was waiting for him for almost 30 minutes...) and I also ask friends to notify admins that I will be returning shortly

12:50 PM: I am at a new location and log on to see that I have been dq'd because my opponent said that I was a noshow.

From that point on, I notify admins that I was unjustly disqualified, and my opponent refuses to play me since i was "almost an hour late".

They proceed to disqualify my opponent.

I play my round 2 opponent and I win 2-0.

I then check the bracket to see that I have been placed back in round 1.

I check the bracket again after several minutes and see that I have been disqualified and my opponent is now in round 3. This was at about 2:30, nearly 3 hours after the tournament began.

WHAT THE snow IS GOING ON!

update: admin is asking me to play my round 1 opponent now, but the opponent is not responding...

update 2: 15 minutes later and still waiting for my opponent to respond... it's still showing that im disqualified in the brackets

update 3: I'm through, they disqualified my first round opponent again... hopefully it stays like this. I'll delete the thread in 30 minutes



1 admin for like 250-300 people, genius. But there's more!





~1 year ago, NASL critizing MLG job on the WCS America qualifiers...oh the irony.

You should read this whole thread to see the whole mess, just incredible.

.........


Now this made me laugh

Til NASL screwed the second WCS America qualifier. I wonder what will happen in the third one

@Also, today I could wath KT vs Samsung on Proleague and there were 2 excelent games, I'll post here the VODs so you can enjoy them ^^





There was also a 45 minute game with *surprise, surprise* Swarm Hosts. And while I hate how the game turn out to be long as it always happens with SH, it wasn't the usual sh game, because the Protoss went full air mode (3 motherships were made in that game!) while the Zerg chose to not fight directly vs the Protoss and instead of that, slowly (very slowly ) picking units of the Protoss with the vipers and killing them with a corruptor ball, with the objective to starve the Protoss. There was a lot of micro on both sides during the 30 minute-fight around the 4th of the Toss, and as you can imagine, it ended with an anti-micro spell (fungal). Go watch if you have time.

MORE than interesting - it's probably the most entertaining clan war system I've ever saw: non-ladder maps, 2v2...and even sometimes spicing up with starbow and sc2bw!

Lots of fun incoming

Loving the map pool.
This will make for great games since the players are not so high-key.

Well, IdrA himself didn't know Goliaths can be maked without tech lab, that recall works even if you kill the Arbitrer or that Science Vessels have EMP either

The metagame is still very young and is hard to call how balanced SBow is, but the game looks freakingly good. Very refreshing compared to HotS.
