This blog is about what being a Starcraft II progamer outside of Korea (Australia for me) means right now, and the challenges we face ahead. This blog is written in the context of the weekend I just had at ACL Brisbane. This was the first big event for HotS (in Australia) and kicked off the SEA SCII season. This was written before the WCS NA Qualifier but just got around to posting it.
Competition, Exposure and Personality
Right now Starcraft is in a very scary place. HotS is... [Read More]
I've just recently begun streaming and haven't really caught on to an identity like some of the more regular streamers. Please help me find my own identity and streaming style.
Hence I'd like to to ask for some feedbacks and suggestions on my streaming style.
What is entertaining to you guys?
How much should I be talking? Should I be joking around or focusing on strategy?
No I will not go shirtless.
As some of you may know, I recently replaced my faulty graphics card (w/ ACL winnings) and started to stream my practices again. But I'm still using the old WoL overlay and people on my stream has been complaining. Could anyone help me out? I'm absolutely helpless with graphics stuff. I can perform physical services as a reward.

A lot of concerns have been raised in other threads. I just wanted to give my personal view of last night. In a semi-coherent rage form..
Why was the bracket designed to last 10+ hours? There was 3 hours between the first and 2nd round. THREE HOURS. Many of the other rounds had a whole hour and a half designated when the sets were done in 30 minutes. Myself, the koreans and everyone else playing from the other side of the world had to get stay... [Read More]

I finally got around to writing a blog about my experiences up in Brisbane. I'm not just going to talk StarCraft, but also about my life a little bit. So, at the start of the year, ETL was looking like it was doing pretty well. Our manager had said something to the effect of that he would use money from his own pocket to send members of our planned LAN team to ACL events and such until we can pick up sponsors. As of right now we are still sponsorless, but certainly not from lack of effort. He... [Read More]
Forgive any spelling mistakes I haven't read through it.
Day 1
Ok so I guess I'll just start with walking to the event. I parked somewhere in the vicinity of the venue and on the way in ran into the fray crew. I hadn't met any of them except for fenner so many hands were shaken in short amount of time. Miles led the way as we found our way in and entered the ballroom.
I registered with Norksman (who is an awesome admin/whatever) and then watched the players. Said hi to Nama and... [Read More]
