Who is day9

The skills translate. Day9 is pretty good at Magic. Spellslingers is part-entertainment and part-education. Day9 plays Magic: The Gathering with the people he calls his "nerd friends," playing the game against his opponent while also talking through strategy and whatever else comes up.

And people seem to love it. Earlier seasons of the show racked up "millions of views," according to Tube Filter , and the show was recently re-upped for a fourth season, which kicked off on May 30, Life isn't always easy.

And when things gets overwhelming, feelings of frustration aren't uncommon. How you handle those feelings — well, that's up to you. You can either lash out, or you can find a more constructive way to get that frustration out. For Day9, it's a long run, something he's been doing a lot more since he started dieting. But he wasn't always good at calming himself down. And in a video post , he talked about it. The post had to do with news that Greg "IdrA" Fields had been booted from his pro StarCraft team because of his temper.

Day9 spoke about how his own temper flared up in the past. He then talked about the importance of finding a release for frustration, and how "withholding" destruction is a far better choice.

In , the Forbes "30 Under 30" list included a category for video games. And wow, did that list have a whole bunch of interesting names in it. Palmer Luckey, the founder of Oculus VR, was one. And then there's pro gamer Stephanie Harvey — better known as missharvey — who parlayed her Counter-Strike career into a design job at Ubisoft, and went on to win Canada's Smartest Person , for crying out loud.

In its rundown on Day9, Forbes called him "one of the biggest names in e-sports," and highlighted that he was able to transform "a daily webshow into an entire site for gamers. Forbes also dropped some info about a job change Plott had recently made at the time. We'll get into that next. A Google search for "Artillery Games" doesn't turn up much useful information.

In fact, you'll come to learn upon doing the search that "artillery games" seem to be a genre of game unto themselves. If it has artillery in it, it's an artillery game. But a few short years ago, the phrase took on a different meaning. Artillery Games, with the capital letters intact, was a startup game studio that wanted to make browser-based strategy games.

And in , Day9 went to work there as a designer. It's presumed that the game Day9 was referring to was Guardians of Atlas , which focused on — as the company put it — "fast-paced multiplayer gaming action. Day9 left Artillery in to focus on creating content once more, and Artillery ended development of the game a few months later.

Professional gaming is chock full of weird names. How does one land on Hungrybox, for instance? And then how does someone named Chris, seeing those kinds of names, use a plain nickname like PC Chris?

Those are questions for another day. But if you've ever wondered how Day9 got his name, that's a question you can get the answer to right now. Was listed on the Forbes 30 under 30 list.
