Am I the only one who finds this funny? (Competitive StarCraft play)

Post by Marco »



2008 finals, probably taking place in Korea.  Basically just skip to 20 for the actual gameplay.  I find the commentary quite amusing, but I guess its just because they are treating it so seriously.  "The cannons warped in!  The cannons warped in!!!"

Wow they take this game a little to seriously. Still I miss the old replays of amazing players like Boxer.

The Korean worship of this game continues to amaze me.  But when you think about it, nothing has come out that has surpassed StarCraft in the RTS genre.  I recently started playing Command and Conquer Tiberium Wars, and for all its bells and whistles, I'd still rather be playing SC.

Looks like it's time to finish the work you have begun.

If you are actually serious, there is a 0 percent chance of that.  I am too focused on preparation for SC2.

You could finish Celestial Irruption in SC2.  ;D

Or at least feature a few easter eggs or something...  ;)

Nah, I'm done with the original SC.  After using the WC3 editor, I just couldn't go back and work with those limitations again.

HK - Not all of us care about the competitive SC scene.  I personally never got into it a single iota till I saw this video.  And even now, I've had my fill.

I like to watch a few once in a while, mainly because of the commentators being funny. :)
