Wonder what the life of a professional gamer is like?

PC World interviewed three StarCraft 2 players to find out.

Adrian “KawaiiRice” Kwong is a member of team FnaticMSI, an international pro gaming team that fields players in several different games, including StarCraft 2, Quake Live, Counter-Strike, Call of Duty, and Halo.

 

Paulo “CatZ” Vizcarra is the cofounder of Team ROOT Gaming, a newly established StarCraft 2 team that is home to a handful of high-level players like Kevin “qxc” Riley and Andrew “Drewbie” Moysey. Unlike Fnatic and Evil Geniuses, ROOT Gaming currently is not sponsored–meaning that its members have to fund their occupation by coaching others and winning tournaments.

 

Greg “IdrA” Fields is one of the best-known StarCraft players out there. Not only is he is one of the few U.S. players who is good enough to hang with the Korean professional players (though he recently concluded his three-year-long stint playing in Korean leagues to return to the United States and participate in the growing U.S.-based eSports scene), but he also has the attitude to match.
