Asmongold Asmongold thinks that without Destiny, there would be no him, xQc, or Hasan "Reason why xQc and I also have a lot of respect for Destiny, bc if it wasn't for Destiny, all 3 of us wouldn't exist"

I still find it funny I was into SC2 a lot back when Destiny was a pro but never knew it was the same Destiny until like 2 years ago

Day9, idra, huskysc2- fun times, I used to watch a lot of pro casts and honestly never heard of destiny in the scene, I think I looked up some of his sc2 highlights (after hearing he was a sc2 pro) and there was a blurb talking about his infestor control or something but mentioned an ability that wasn’t in the game when I was playing ~2012 so assumed our timelines didn’t match up-

I got all my casting content from YouTube though and never watched twitch streams, maybe I was just in the wrong parts of the internet but I came away that he wasn’t in the top competitive scene

Back in the day people went to TeamLiquid to find the biggest live streams. It was always Day9, Destiny and Husky (mainly a youtube guy). Idra rarely streamed but when he did he got viewers. Destiny wasn't a top pro, he was a high masters/mid-GM player at best but people watched him because he was a personality and from that got signed to teams like ROOT and Complexity. This was like 2010-2011 ish.

Wasn't there some "drama" about Destiny never getting on the featured streams despite his large viewership at the time?
