Scarlett is one of my all time favorite players. So nice to see that she has the backing of her family which has an investment into gaming in general.

[@inspectorvoid]

That’s a boy

[@KrossFire330]

One common trend among a lot of these signature series videos are supportive families. Also the lighting in Scarlett's family's house seems very nice and they seem like such nice people.

[@morgenmuffel5747]

@YourGOD647God, you’re so sad. She’s achieved more in her chosen career than you likely ever will. She is well liked and respected by her fellow players and by the vast majority of the community

[@CharlesOakley]

@YourGOD647 hahahahhaa. You just might be the corniest fvking dude on the internet at the moment. Threatening peoples' lives because you are confused. hahha. Wow.

[@MattAlexander-do2od]

Hey Scarlett, if you ever see this. I’m from Kingston Ontario as well. Lived on rose abbey there was a little park and water tower behind our townhouse. Anyways been playing starcraft since sc1 and watching you represent Canada on global stage and @ gsl has been a real pleasure. Thanks for putting us on the map!

[@flashyJulie]

Wonderful! She was such a Inspiration when playing SC2 myself over all this years. Thanks alot to her! ♥

[@tank1110]

Did u not follow the game in 2013? Lmao there is a lot better players

[@hellabacon4761]

Mad respect for Scarlett, hopping over to BroodWar and kicking ass as a side project.

[@mylesheaven]

Scarlett As a fellow Canadian I just wanted to say that you have helped inspire me to keep following my love of games, pc stuff and anime. Even though I'm not good enough to go pro, It has allowed me to make friends, travel and work through some of my mental health issues. I have always loved watching you play and I always try to keep up to date on your casted games or tournaments that I'm lucky enough to watch live.

[@ChristianBlueChimp]

It's so cool to see Scarlett again. She was one of my favorite players due to her personality and intellectuality. I hope to see more of her in the future (not just in SC2).

[@robertrodriguez2655]

From watching the signature series I have to say that a big part of the success of this players comes from the support of their families

[@FlockofAngels]

Scarlett is my favorite player to watch play StarCraft, perhaps tie with watching Serral play. 😊

[@MiaSkylar]

As a trans woman i look up on her. She is so humble and talented, all an icon. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Zireael83]

as a male that is not trans, i do so too. she´s amazing! :)

[@omarz_man]

born trans ?

[@thdjjfsfh]

Thank you for putting Canada on the Starcraft II map, Scarlett.

[@eraserewrite]

I love her so much, omg. I used to be in the Starcraft club back in college, and the guys used to gush about her. I secretly have a crush too.

[@slapzk5355]

It’s a guy.

[@mikerobertson8540]

Gay.

[@moritzs7228]

I like this Shopify Signature stories very much. It's nice to get to know the Pros a bit better. Thanks.

[@TwinSimian]

One of my favorite players, I wish she did KZbin videos like Harstem and uThermal, with strategy and commentary

[@stiltzy1534]

3:20 Her parents are so chill and supportive but realistic at the same time, can they adopt me?!

[@Fetza_youtube]

So much love for Scarlett! She is my favourite Starcraft player and I admire her play!

[@xMissMaveNx]

Scarlett's story was amazing to watch unfold. I started watching SC2 in 2010 and when she came into the scene it was awesome. Good job, Scarlett! ❤🏳️‍⚧️

[@lachazASMR]

As a fellow Canadian ive always been a Scarlett fan, but that aside she is just fun to watch, her style is very entertaining.

[@derricktalbot8846]

I am not a SC2 fan.... never even played 1 OR 2.... I couldnt even tell you the name of the other faction that wasnt shown here.... BUT! Every once in a long while... KZbin will tell me to watch her play. This algorithm KNOWS ME! She is just entertaining.... and worth the few hours every so often to sit in tension as I watch her Zerg. If she does not make Canada's Sports Hall of Fame... I am going in there to move some furniture!

[@iowenyou1]

I really hope for many great games with Scarlett this IEM!! She always was one of my favorite players.

[@fightzero01]

how am I just finding out about this video now. This is amazing. Thank you Shopify!

[@penserdenkenlang]

Nice to see this. Always loved seeing Scarlett play.

[@XayadSC]

great signature series

[@MyLifeFrAiurGaming]

amazing film, such a sweet family!

[@tgarder]

Amazing! Watching Scarlett and Snute games was what made me pick up the game (and zerg) in the first place, so cool that she's still top level! (And I'm still in silver league... errr)

[@manty7734]

Man same here! I would add stephano to the list but I always loved Scarlett style more and snutes queens

[@jeanphilippecroteau]

Thx for this video! So nice! I'm always rooting for Scarlett!! :D

[@lexistar8517]

Love Scarlett! Always super fun to watch.

[@firtuD.dani7722]

Her humility is admirable!

[@Antigegner]

She's awesome. I wish her and her family the best of luck for the future!

[@BodomBeachKiller]

Her mom seems so sweet!

[@scottbelljr8031]

for Canada !!!!

[@gm2256]

Scarlett…so cool!

[@martinstranne4426]

"Some people do different things with their life and that's okay!"

[@facundosoler2200]

She is the player that has been a pro player for longer than everyone else now still competing at major and premier tournaments having started in 2011 like she mentioned. She has won the respect and admiration of the entire scene. Whenever you see her name "Scarlett" on a bracket you know it's going to be good !

[@lethalMED1A]

this is a great angle, shes a legend. love to see it.

[@SteamGrace]

the eyes. it's always the eyes

[@CarlosDelcristo]

Go go Scarlett.... Great video as always.... Long life SC2..

[@addlctedtv756]

In my opinion Scarlett is the most professionell Player there is, in a time when gaming was looked down on, she embraced love for gaming and with that the magic with beeing who she wanted and who she was and is x as an professionell looking at her she is Inspiration.. Keep fighting gaming is Love

[@covariance5446]

Holy cow! I had no idea she grew up in Kingston! I did my undergrad at Queen's University. TIL! EDIT: At 2:51 you can even see her walking towards Stouffer library! I used to spend HOURS/DAYS/NIGHTS in that building!

[@LazyEinstein]

From Kingston as well. Neat to hear someone big is from an area you spent time in.

[@omidabd6278]

Finally a new video from my favorite gamer.just adorable.

[@yanc3879]

That game against Bomber …. I spilled my pop corn all over.

[@TomRauhe]

Definitely one of the best and most creative players. Still stunned when she switched to protoss mid game, no one even knew if that is even in the rules, and won with it to prove a point

[@SCDarkZide]

Pretty cool video, thanks! I am very sympathetic to her grounded no-nonsense demeanor in spite of doing fairly well as a player for so long. I have lost touch with the Starcraft II competitive scene, but her playstyle always seems so ambitious and focused, it's very inspiring. Though probably not one of her most important or strongest games, I remember her most fondly for holding out against Neeb, trying to somehow win a war of attrition against his absurdly polished timings, and winning some very close games. Also, when her father mentioned board games, I didn't expect them to end up playing Mahjong lol.

[@Lhyrri]

wholesome vid, love scarlett

[@ohaRega]

What an absolute boss of a human being

[@DankAudioStash24]

5:35 As someone who enjoys good soy milk, this was hilarious 😂

[@EverythingEvo]

Awesome video!! Thank you ESL and Shopify!

[@henafoo]

I liked this one. Hopefully she can still have another go to try in GSL as some of the runs in last year were really good. Good luck Scarlett.

[@pyenapple]

@YourGOD647somebody’s obsessed with her and it shows

[@giannisgt28rs]

all love scarlett its great person!

[@MainOffenderKZ]

starcraft legend.

[@ANTGPRO]

Those series are awesome. Thanks.

[@elephantherostarcraft2725]

Scarlett amazing 😻

[@theshadowavatar]

I always love watching Scarlett in the tournaments as zerg used to be my race when I played and she plays it on another level. However I also kind of feel bad for that brother, think of how often he got dumpstered growing up playing games against Scarlett...

[@melissac3984]

Yay Scarlett! Such a sweet family.

[@noxszerofoxs2769]

Fantastic!

[@alexdougal8968]

Can't hit that like button enough times great documentary

It was really nice to see her relationship with her family. Kinda jealous, haha.

[@megmucklebones7538]

Wow, of you grow up with a supporting family - who are financially secured and don't do drugs, you are lucky. Make the best of it.

[@joediditde]

I always love when certain give vision to other female competitors. Just showing that it can be done regardless of all stereotypes. Like Judit Polgar for instance.

[@Revanșistul]

However, unlike Judit Polgar, Scarlett is not a female. He is a male.

[@joediditde]

@@Revanșistul I see what you're saying yes. But she can still be a role model I think. But especially in sports, we still gotta make distinctions between born males and born females.

[@jaska-jalmarixvi5757]

Sc2 community's been mostly great. She's been on top level for over 10 years. Only recent years have been starting to see haters on these comment sections I don't think these people even play starcraft, they are just here to hate

[@ZielZL]

[@basstoon]

une belle personne qu'on est heureux de suivre après toutes ces années!

[@emanulyang6136]

Lol, caz Scarlett has defeated Time(Peinan Li) many times, we always call Scarlett as 'Mom of Time'. Then, she won lots of fans. By the way, games between Scarlett and Time are still called 'the war between mom and son'. XD

[@brendanmaher2002]

Queen of Blades. Straight killer

[@spacepope20k]

queen of blades? try queen of esports. she belongs in the esports hall of fame one day. it's not even close.
