Fak it, everyone else is writing one of these blogs, figure I may aswell write down some of the memorable parts of my ACL experience also.
So I'll start by saying that Drive through liquor shops is so sick, I wish they had them in NZ. Now that the important stuff is out of the way I'll dive into ma gaimz.
Going into ACL we the avant boys had mixed opinions on how well we would do, RuineD and myself are rather unpractised as we have other commitments to attend to in our lives, so we... [Read More]
Figured I'd write a blog outlining my goals in SC2 for the next year. But first a quick 2012 recap ^.^
2012 was an amazing year me for, I moved to NZ for uni, met some awesome people, and had a really good time. Some highlights would be barcrafts (and the barcraftnz tournaments), being a part of auckland uni's sc2 club and meeting so many people from so many different backgrounds/hobbies/andwhathaveyou. Oh and also possibly the best christmas I've ever had, can't say I remeber a whole lot of... [Read More]
Not sure if this should be a thread/blog, but eh. Singapore folk, I'm going to be in Singapore from the 26th-29th of Dec, and I would really like to meet up with as many of you as possible, maybe go to an internet cafe/get food/drinks somewhere. I haven't lived there for like 7 years now so IDK what to do where to go, open for suggestions, but again I'd like to meet as many of you as possible!
Hello my lovelies,
Figured I'd let everyone here know a bit about Aucklands run in the CSL, as a few of our members frequent this forum, and I'm sure you'll all be interested to hear about it.
So although the website is a bit dodgy regarding adding lineups, reporting, and various other stuff, we've managed to successfully advance to the Ro8 in the Asia division. So far we've had some really good performances by all of our members, notably of which the legendary Thomas "JazBas" Cho, who I'm... [Read More]
Ok Summer holidays have begun, I mean..really it's winter..but its still summer holidays.
So what am I getting up to?
1- Starcraft, I'm getting decent ping to na atm, and I have yet to try out kr, but I expect good things, Korea being fairly close to Japan, should be gooood.
ZvP - Trying out a bunch of things, quite happy with this MU atm, my build is really refined, just trying to work out a few things regarding my muta -> ultra bane style, such as whether or not to go double evo.
Stemming from my other blog I felt like writing a bit of an update on the goals i set in August.
Top 16 GM on sea was actually quite easy in the end, but pointless as was pointed out in the original blog XD, but it was still a nice achievement to have under my belt.
GM on NA isn't going to happen, I get horrendous lag to NA, coupled with shit fps because I play on a mac, so this can be put on hold till the holidays where I'll be grinding out some games from japan.
something to listen to, and possibly dance to whilst you read -> dfenner.com
HOKAY lan numero dos happened on Sunday, felt i'd just write up a recap of the event for you non-auckland-based people, so, without further ado.
Outline of games first, lan stuff at the bottom...
Once again me and pet were the favourites, however going into this tournament I felt a bit more nervious than last time. On the sign ups I saw a couple of zergs in master and 1 gm, those who know me are aware of the... [Read More]
Well for those of you that didn't know, over the past 3 weeks or so a few other fantastic players and myself had been getting ready to announce a team. Unfortunately, given the turn of events of today it would appear that this will not be going ahead.
As luck would have it this is happening at a time that I'm feeling abit down and out, and to a certain extent this was like a nail on the coffin. I'm in a bit of a slump at the moment, not improving as fast as I should be given how much time I... [Read More]
Today I attended my first ever lan event, the barcraft nz tournament 'battlecraft' or something along those lines. Absolutely fantastic event, and its set the bar quite high for other lans to follow, in the rest of this blog I'm going to do into more detail about how I did/what it was like ect, whilst trying to keep my thoughts as coherent as possible - which may be a challenge.
So basically I woke up at around 8 ish to wander down to midcity where the lan was being held. As it happens, my... [Read More]
So I figured it was about time I did one of these; I doubt it will come close to the spectacular versions both mafia and iaguz have offered us, but hey its all for laffs.
To begin this magnificent game of magnanimous proportions, I decided to open with the "savior build" which many protoss on our very own sea server will be familiar with.
Little did I know; but toss opponent had plans of his own =0
Up until this point I had yet to suspect the toss playing, lets say, funnily,... [Read More]
Hello ladies and gents,
I've been a part of this community for around 4 months now, and I felt it was time to write a blog to say thanks, and outline my goals for the next semester of uni, essentially the next 4 months.
So first things first; You're all awesome. I've been a part of several gaming communities, mainly clans in runescape, and the forums on gamebattles for COD/Halo. This community just trumps every thing else I've ever been able to be a part of, the majority of people are very... [Read More]
