I'm on the butter they give you on pancakes is gross wagon. I also hate the butter flavored syrup. I'll take country crock butter + real maple syrup por favor.

Your country doesn't have any artificially flavored products!?

Your countries people don't eat anything "funny"!?

Your country is better because it has a more nutritious diet!?

Dunno, but it's probably better than a butter based corn replacement imo.

I saw the end of it.

Next game Trump plays against someone who knew him. Trump says he is undefeated. I thought he was joking. I checked his ladder, and he wasn't joking. He's 3-0. I just jinxed him.

He got started late on the new season, and probably in an easy division.

Trump is scamming the system, imo.

EDIT: UMad and Trump are in the same division.

So far I have:

Trump and UMad
Gospy and murDOC
RootMinigun and JonnyCosmo

He has played over 3000ish games. I like his stream because he talks about what he's doing while he's playing.

Sometimes he focuses too much on variance, but his analysis is always good. I like how he never gets worked up over a loss and just generally has fun with the game.

Thought this was a cool read: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/view...opic_id=207275

SlayerSBekHo (SlayerSBaekHo??) wrote a semi-short article on how to get better at SC2. It's very basic, tough to read as his english isn't that good, but if you can pick out the small details I think it gives a really cool perspective coming from a Korean progamer. He makes references to Rain, Squirtle, and Cella, and how he, at one time, wanted to quit playing because he was under a lot of stress.

Hey guys,

I am writing a 1500 word magazine article on e-sports and specifically Starcraft II. My goal is to give a good introduction into the e-sports world and a look inside of the extremely competitive world of Starcraft II. Is there anything you guys can come up with that would fit into this broad description that you think would be imperative for someone unfamiliar with our world to know about? I may use what you say as a quote, and will give you credit and post the final article here of course.

Thanks!
Austin

i would think trying to make comparisons to other sports would be the easiest way.
Tennis/Golf are individual sports in tournaments that may make favorable comparisons.
Along the same line, comparing different golf courses/tennis surfaces to different maps.
Opponent in tennis has a massive serve but weak baseline could translate into people who are good at timing attacks/rushes compared to players who like long rallies being macro players.

If it's just an introduction then I don't think timing attacks fit into, along with all of those comparisons. Plus, I think this is about esports/SC2 rather than SC2/concepts.

I think it would be cool to see how much esports relates to all societies, how integrated it is, and why eSports is becoming what it is. How it evolved, where it came from, where it's going. How big it really is in Korea with the GSL. I think it would need to be a very tight introduction as you're going to want to hit every point without being too generalized that it remains its own little world.

Someone made bots to control zerglings against siege tank fire and to split marines vs. banelings. Pretty sweet.

That's pretty cool, but from the video it looks like it somehow knows which units are going to be targeted. Which makes it less interesting to me.
