Geoff was one of the best. I know his character online ruffled feathers, but some of you have no idea the depth of compassion he would show his friends and peope he just met. He was a friend and someone I looked up to.
@ThatBronzeGirl
it means there's no red pepper paste/flakes in it so the broth is white instead of red but let's be real this take is also fairly accurate
I'm in the crowd of

and there's a family with two young kids (like 7) and the kids are SO EXCITED they were told to quiet down when Ryung was hiding his proxy barracks omg ;;
IEM Katowice was such an incredible event, I'm so thankful I was able to be a part of it. Thank you to everyone who made this event great - the community, fans, production, fellow talent, the entire production crew, just everyone. One for the history books. ❤️
This event was a bit odd with the setup but NA StarCraft just blew me away. Everyday I heard news that MORE seats were needed. People were borrowing chairs and couches to watch, or just stood the entire time. You guys really made it feel special. Let's go back to NA for 2023. ❤️
I don't remember being told my story (that I recorded like 6-12 months ago?) would be for the Blizzcon intro video and now I'm mad I didn't ask for payment. 🙃
My mother was able to come home today! We got her to her cats as top priority. Her recovery has been going very well. If you wanna send her well wishes she's
@athenacat2
SO HYBRID PROLEAGUE CAME ABOUT BECAUSE BLIZZARD WANTED TO FORCE THE ENTIRE BW SCENE INTO PLAYING SC2 BUT DIDN'T WANT TO JUST COMPLETELY CHANGEOVER IMMEDIATELY BUT IT RESULTED IN PRETTY MUCH A DISASTER BECAUSE SC2 WAS NEVER THAT POPULAR IN SOUTH KOREA AND -
Incoming picture thread for
#Happy10thSC2
. Without SC2 I would've never met some of my best friends. I wouldn't have gone to parties or let loose or let myself make connections with new people.
Really appreciated the opportunity to not only cast this event but also hosting it.
The consistent high-production SC2 with different formats and different casting pairs is something I've felt was missing from the scene for the last ~6 years. Very happy with this event! 👏
As a content creator, you need every view you can get. You may not let the really bad comments through, but you should err on the side of caution when it comes to alienating a potential viewer. But when the meme is there, can you really resist?
I think I should give up on StarCraft. I want so badly to do a good job and make a living off of it but it's not happening and it's poisoning my mind. Of course, I don't know what else I would do so there's always that...
Landed safely back in the US. Had a lot of fun at Katowice and it was incredible to cast the finals. Mostly I'm glad it felt like "normal" again, hope the audience felt so too. Looking forward to the next big SC2 tournament!
With the most recent ESL tweet it's also been revealed that casters will not be on-site for Atlanta. This is honestly a really depressing trend for me and probably many other commentators, as this isn't restricted to just SC2. It was done with CSGO Challenger at Valencia
I know the year isn't over for StarCraft but thank you very much
@DreamHackSC2
for providing such consistent, excellent production. I hope the fans all enjoyed the production, casters, hosts, and games, and we'll see you again soon for DH Masters: Last Chance!
The amount of people who message me about my skin is dumb. I know they're all well intentioned but it's like, bitch I'm 30 years old you think you got the magic formula I ain't tried before???
Email me when you can give me free scar laser surgery not basic bitch advice jeez.
The dad on airplane meme is stupid.
People on Reddit are being babies about SC2 being messed up.
Sugary cereal doesn't taste as good anymore.
My old injuries ache in the cold weather.
Give me my old person card damn it.
Sadly our cat Baby passed away this morning. She was 20 years old and was the first cat to snuggle up to me. Not many pics but she was a pretty lil smooshface who woke up the whole neighborhood with her meows. <3
Holy shit what an amazing TvZ, absolutely the two best players in that matchup damn. Made it so easy to provide the hype. Felt so good to cast that with
@ROOTCatZ
too MY DUDE fuckin nailed it
What an IEM! LET'S GO RO8!

Amazing tournament, amazing games, amazing players. What an

@Reynor02
for taking the championship!
StarCraft gets better every year. Already looking forward to the next tournament. 💯
I just talked about it on stream but I'mma say it here too...My goal for 2018 was 400 Twitch subs and 5k YT subs and I hit both as of today \o/ It may be late but STILLLLL
thank you everyone!
The worst thing to come out of this announcement is the announcement. People outside of the SC2 scene are going to be sympathetic and start writing eulogies and patting us on the head with a 'oh of course sweetie' look when we say we're fine.
I'm so happy the Confederate flag is being banned in so many places. So many dumb conversations I've had with people about it and I can only hope some of them changed their minds and agree with it being disallowed.
Also fuck ya tear down those dumb statues.
Met casting the small team league URTL in 2011 with dreams of one day casting on the big stage...and finally
@feardragon64
and I are casting the same event. :D
I can say officially I will not be doing Blizzcon this year, and I probably won't have the means to attend it as a fan either. Maybe flight miles can cover, but idk if it'll be worth. Conventions are $$$ and I wasted $$ on Twitchcon.
Last mopey tweet, promise.
I'd still be a shy nerd who couldn't stand to look at herself in the mirror, much less take hundreds of pictures and appear confident on camera. I would still be wondering if I could ever do something and be great at it.
Headed off to Montreal! This stop is special to me, but it also always seems to have its own magic for everyone. I've been studying hard to make it the best cast and tournament so far this year, please cheer for us. 💪
My mother tested positive for COVID after feeling like she had a sinus infection last weekend so I'm getting my test tomorrow. This hopefully means she had a light case of it and I'm clear/asymptomatic but we'll see!
Damn what a series, so honored to cast that. 😍😍 Thank you
@x5_PiG
for being an excellent cocaster, congrats to
@ENCE_Serral
for the 4TH CHAMPIONSHIP...and thank you Montreal for being so excellent.
Got my first Pfizer vaccine! The mass vaccination site was like walking through a time you know will be in a thousand textbooks in the future. Pretty cool.
Useless fun fact - every DH Valencia since 2013 has been won by a Zerg. The only non-Zerg to win it was Taeja in 2012. DRG won the first Valencia in 2011.
From this useless pattern of events I conclude a Zerg will win 2022 Valencia. 👍
One video hit the YT algorithm or something idk but it's pretty crazy a single 1v1 is up to 46k views, and I've gone from 200 average views to 1k on further videos. Thanks to everyone for a last second 2020 surprise!
2020 is here! My resolutions -
- Complete Ct5k (already 3 weeks in)
- Lose 30lbs
- Talk with dermatologist about acne scar treatments
- Read more books
- Watch more movies
- Finally reach GM as Terran (gave up trying a while back but let's try!)
- Cast alllll the SC
Please give a warm welcome to the fantastic talent joining us for

Katowice 2020!
The doors to the Spodek Arena will open in just a few weeks time! Are you hyped? 🤩
That's it for my
#IEM
casts! Time to sit back and enjoy the musical stylings of the Australian caster duo
@x5_PiG
and
@MaynardeSC2
for the finals. ♥️♥️
Seven years ago we went to the shelter and I was chosen by a sick white bobtail kitten who apparently had a disfigured foot. He's been my best buddy ever since, with me through the good and the bad. Look at how much gray he used to have ❤️
Happy Birthday to me! 🥳 Some of the cake is already eaten because it's my birthday and I do what I want.
Celebrating with you guys on stream! Talking movies and then playing team/arcade games while enjoying some mimosas.
He was basically out of the group stage and pulled it back with some luck. He beat the god-king Serral. He brought the series back on a map he thought he wouldn't win. There aren't many better stories. T_T
Finally got the 'rona 😞 Positive today. May have gotten it with all the layover/travel woes but obviously can't tell when. Just dealing with cough/occasional chest pain so hopefully it doesn't get worse but ob gonna isolate until I test neg. Sorry if I infected anyone 😭
I'm usually conflicted about my work so it feels odd to say that I feel pride. To be there for the "start" of Oliveira's dream run final day and point out that he deserves more hope than his 0-2 start versus Reynor and then for him to deliver and then some...just feels so cool.
I don't like taking any credit away from the players who actually deliver on the stories but I do always hope I do them justice in the cast and on the desk. Congratulations to Oliveira, the world champ. 🏆
I'm 46 subscribers away from hitting the monetization goal for my casting YouTube! If you didn't know I had one, now you do. If you thought subbing wasn't helpful, it is! And if you don't care, that's ok here's a cast anyway
So
@airfrance
lost my luggage
The stores didn't have my favorite Swedish candy
The hotel wanted to charge me $15 to check in an hour early
And the little tag on my tea to keep it from falling into the water broke
I believe this is what's referred to as "one of those days"
It was a last minute thing to have me do interviews (and PiG tomorrow + hosting) but I'm glad I got the experience when the players were excited and engaged. Hope you all enjoyed day 1 and looking forward to casting the rest of the tourney!
Today is a historic moment. We are excited to announce that the world-renowned franchises and talented people at
@ATVI_AB
will be joining Team Xbox!

SO SC2 GAMES PUT THE HOUR DIGIT ON GAMES AT THE 42:50 MARK BECAUSE SC1 WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYED ON FASTER SO SC TIME WAS ACTUALLY FASTER THAN REAL TIME WHICH SC2 DID TOO BUT THEN CHANGED IN LOTV -
@ESLSC2
#DHAtlanta
So many people came to talk to us, honestly such a heartwarming hour. The love for SC2 has felt so unreal the last six months. Thank you to everyone who attended!

Heading off to Valencia to cast this 12 year old game called StarCraft 2 or something idk.
Btw if this trip also misplaces my bags I basically don't have clothes 🙃
Could I have picked a better strategy? Possibly. Did I let Inno's burn from last season influence me too much? Possibly. Is my team going to prove once and for all that EU is best region? Possibly. Am I going to cheer for them? OBNOXIOUSLY.
THE GRUBALUBADUBDUBS ARE BACK
Time to bring out 'ZombieGrub Reads The Dumbest Comments While Drinking' YouTube content cuz BOI I TELL YOU WAT some people are using this recent announcement to be PEAK stupid.
