ImageBlizzard has a sit down chat with the legendary Sean "Day[9]" Plott and discusses what got him started and what it's like to live the life of a StarCraft 2 ShoutCaster.

Few people that are into StarCraft eSports would fail to recognize the legendary commentator and player that is Sean "Day[9]" Plott. Whether it be from his Day[9] Dailies, the multitudes of tournaments that he commentates, or just happening to stumble across him at a live event, Day[9] represents for a lot of us just what eSports is all about, having a great time doing what we love most.

With this thought in mind Blizzard Entertainment took some time and recently sat down with this legendary figure in the StarCraft scene, and took a look at some of the things that make this star tick.

This fine interview covers everything from the basic "How did you get into ShoutCasting" all the way down to more technical questions related to how a Day[9] Daily is put together on any given day.

Encouragement is offered for any aspiring ShoutCasters out there and Day[9] gives his frank thoughts on the subject of improving by simply saying "Don't try to hide in the shadows "carefully sculpting your craft."" As any successful shoutcaster might agree, it's essential to just put yourself out there in front of an audience and see what might happen.

This interview comes highly recommended for anyone wanting a better look at how the man behind the screen name became who he was or those who want to get an idea how much work goes into the dailies that you don't normally see. The full interview is located on Blizzard's main page and is something that no fan of StarCraft 2 eSports should miss.
