Earning Korea's Legendary Pro Gaming License As An American

[@Big-E-TheBouncer]

Artosis was the man, getting all this footage back then.

[@Raithed]

I remember this, there was a huge TL thread and everything too, this was so crystal clear when it was uploaded back in the day, I guess resolution is just so, so different. Time for Tasteless to do the idra history as well, back then estro accepted a lot of foreigners, idra being one of them. I hadn't followed the whole series but there was one with ret, too. Or we can go ton the early 2000s following grrr, he has really good Korean. Ah, good times, my childhood, great game too, still play it. Rock on.

The whispering makes it sound like PGA Tour commentary. Would like to hear more RTS casts done in that style, perhaps with birds and crowd roars sprinkled in as well

[@dontcrydoomer4787]

it's pretty wild to think how little footage we would have if artosis wasn't carrying a camera everywhere. he single handedly documented competitive starcraft

[@thomasoverlund5373]

Curious who won the tourney and what his career was like briefly as well. Good Vod, nostalgic.

[@rossdixonellis]

NoNy is a legend for that Courage run. I remember his games in the Team Liquid Starleague tournaments which were really fun to watch. SCForAll was a pretty short lived site if I recall, but I looked forward to seeing some of the stuff uploaded there too with Foreigners vs Pros or B Team guys. There still was a pretty big divide.

[@officialmcdeath]

Yeah spacebar is inconsistent - better to use the JKL cluster, where J goes back a few seconds, K pauses/unpauses and L jumps forward a few seconds, feels very natural all round \m/

The moral of the story is: 10-15 gate

[@ZoeCalico]

This is really really cool. Even if just to hear artosis in full caster mode before he was even a caster

[@goodguycwyzz4768]

I remember watching this whole thing back in the day. Money was very strong and so close! He faced a very strong Terran and his late game PvT just wasn’t up to stuff back then

[@kodysullivan7582]

this absolutely ruled -- thought Nony was gonna end up takin it at the end !!

[@bigalharris]

Artosis--“you are a hero to ***** people all over the world”. So canceled. 😆😂🤣

[@CallMeCJorDandy]

10:10 it is common thing , everytime i go to a local PC Bang people generally call each other their IGN especially when you're a long time customer 🤣

[@QuixoticOdyssey]

I loved this game as a kid even though i never really understood multiplayer. I was so hyped for sc2. I got a beta key in 2008 blizzcon and checked my email every day. Got good enough to hit diamond in 1v1 in wings of liberty. My brother and i were both huge incontrol fans. Loved to watch his evil geniuses videos. Really cool to see these old videos of you guys in the early days.

[@patrickdement1474]

Great to watch, thanks!

[@mochtedoppelte690]

I hope you also upload best/top highlights in the last asl season

[@Shield_Battery]

You looked like you were up to no good sneaking in to obs Nony's PvZ match, lol. You probably crashed weddings on the reg back then

[@mf_________]

the mythical golden days.

[@Eliteownage]

much love all

[@carlosmejia3881]

Did Nony try a second time ? Did he win ??

[@afwaller]

You’re looking great tasteless!

[@arushdemi677]

lets get him a wife for real. such a stud

[@paxconsciente3352]

@@arushdemi677 he has a super hot korean girlfriend right now but not married. had a few vids/streams with her. hes doing great.

Looking sharp tasteless! 👌

[@seiakari]

"Not Korean tap water." Tasteless then drinks bottled water.

[@aniapersa3454]

yes? that is the normal thing to do when the tapwater is bad

[@blank5210]

@@aniapersa3454I think the joke was most bottled water comes from municipal sources (tap water)

[@mathewherford]

Nony is so handsome and dreamy UwU

[@justingagnier2871]

Whats a salary for a pro gamer in Korea on one of these teams?

[@ChaDMan97]

These are old numbers. Players have reportedly made 500000USD from a year of salary+tournament+bonuses. This doesn't include things like streaming, crypto, and investments.

[@justingagnier2871]

@@ChaDMan97 no kidding

[@carlosmejia3881]

Awesome video

[@mis8866]

Imagine just having to have a license for something thats not dangerous to literally anyone. Idk how people could live in an asian country as a non-asian, those people are so backward, its like they're hard stuck in the 90s era but they just have better tech.

[@ChaDMan97]

You ever go to Japan? Youre pretty on point, stuck in the 90s. Fax machines, cash only, cigarettes inside every bar/restaurant lmao.

[@Bagginsess]

lol maybe change the title to pro-gaming license because I thought it said programming
