With my broken ankle, I wasn't able to go out much, so I sat there, I grinded and I got pretty good pretty quickly.
I'd say within a year of breaking my ankle, I knew I could be a tournament player. In his first year playing StarCraft , Stemkoski says he clocked approximately 1, hours of game time which, as any serious StarCraft player will say, is nothing to write home about. At his peak, he played 16 hours a day.
Most of America used dial-up internet, which meant online matches were slow and every time he wanted to play, he'd have to use his family's phone line, which didn't impress his parents. They'd unplug my keyboard or my monitor and hide it in the car and lock it.
It was a constant battle where his parents just "didn't get it. When his family went to sleep, he'd pull out another modem, plug it in and play StarCraft through the night. He would often play from 11 p.
Exhausted from playing StarCraft at night, Stemkoski slept during school hours. Gym was the first class each day — he would nap through that.
His second class was chemistry — he slept through that, too. His grades slipped, but he didn't care. None of his classes were nearly as interesting as StarCraft. He loved its complexity and its depth. He loved that there was so much to learn, so much to know, and he could always find players on Korean servers who could challenge him.
Stemkoski's StarCraft training was paying off. He made it to the U. He was undoubtedly one of the best players in the country. But no one outside of StarCraft cared. In , he graduated from high school despite failing many of his classes.
As his classmates filled in college applications, Stemkoski had his eyes set on something else entirely: the StarCraft mecca of the world. Everyone was talking about a new game called StarCraft. It was a real-time strategy about aliens and marines and spaceships and, to the two brothers in , it looked amazing.
The brothers bought a copy of the game. They took turns playing, one watching over the other's shoulder, shouting commands and telling the other person how they were doing everything wrong. Their internet was slow, and matches were fun but not as competitive as they could have been. Wanting a challenge unhindered by their dial-up connection, the brothers went to a LAN cafe to play. I wanted to go back there and beat him again, so my brother and I practiced a lot.
Connected to the world at high speeds with access to Korean servers, the brothers realized they'd found a love in competitive StarCraft. Like Stemkoski, they fell in love with the game's depth and challenge. StarCraft wasn't just about twitch reflexes; there was strategy at every level, it overflowed with nuance and no matter how good the brothers got, they could always find someone who could beat them. By the time they were in high school, the Plott brothers were entering StarCraft tournaments and consistently winning.
Naturally, school suffered. He slept through English. He slept through math classes. After graduating high school, Plott moved to Denver for college where he studied philosophy and psychology and received a scholarship for public speaking. His parents enjoyed a sigh of relief — their son was in college. Law school was on the cards. There was talk of a Ph. Video games were done. StarCraft 2 commentary and eSports casting as we now know it is a relatively new phenomenon.
Today there are entire television shows dedicated to broadcasting StarCraft 2 matches and leagues like Major League Gaming, Global StarCraft 2 League and DreamHack that are full-scale productions, complete with professional casters for every game.
Anyone with an internet connection can tune in to a stream and watch their favorite casters commentate a match in high definition.
People actually have favorite casters. Derek "Dox" Reball is a manager of the eSports team Nv and has been involved with the StarCraft community for 15 years. He says that commentators were rare before the release of StarCraft 2 , and anyone who tried to provide commentary was working against technology. It was like this old school radio concept. It was really bad, but that was how we did it. That was one way of doing it in during the Stone Age of eSports. Running a tournament was no easy feat, either.
In he was involved in the Professional Gamers League where StarCraft matches would be played and refereed.
