Soccer players have limited energy, you can't run for days straight. When you play video games, you only use the least energy your body can use doing nothing.
I really doubt they play 10 or more hours a day... Cuz if you play that much it would not help at all (compared to a couple of hours less) Just as soccer players don't play soccer for 10 or more hours a day, and almost every other sport or game...
Watching this is awesome! Tough my favorite players are Canata and FantaSy (or how does he write it? xD)
they dont train their condition or stamina for 10 hours consequentely. They are not exhausted all the time, but offensive and defensive strategies are trained up to 10h a day.
Yeah, and starcraft isn't that fun if you play it as much as the Pros do. Imagine this, 10 or more hours a day, with no weekends, and little holiday. Trust, you are gonna really hate the game if you play it like that.
Most of these guys actually do have lives, lol. They are engineers or programmers and they play sc as their job after they get their degrees. Interesting stuff, i love Korea!
Actually, these guys have to play constantly. Maybe 10-12 hours a day 5-6 times a week. There are a couple TL articles with Nal_ra and July (I think) talking about how they can't do very much besides Starcraft. They said that pro gaming at their level is very, very hard, and only do it if you have strong dedication.
you're leaving out the fact that A LOT of people play video games, or just THIS video game, all day every day, and never make it to be good enough to earn a single penny. it's kind of like the people who think they should play basketball all the time to make it to the NBA and just end up on the streets. it's like the dream of becoming a celebrity through singing or modeling or acting. it's poison for the society.
ic.. Nada predicted that he would go Mutas after him seein that he got vultures and tanks instead of marines. Even the commentators said he should go mutas.. lol..
alot more than that, he earned 700k annually officialy, and unofficialy he earned a heck of alot more on commercials (for keyboards, optic mouses and mobile phones) + cash prizes from tournaments... its well known Boxer became a millionare very fast from playing SC.
Yeah, its kinda like how americans can play football. If your saying Koreans need a life, then people who play football need a life too. After all, both SC and Football are very well played careers.

That is news to me... Because I know that training that much is really unhealthy... Your body cannot survive real training for that long.

It is their sport. You don't call somebody who practices a sport 13 hours a day has no lives. You call them dedicated and hardworking.
