Hey guys, this is just a quick blog to announce that I'm leaving Exile 5.

I Just wanna thank everyone on x5 for making my time in the team feel special and I really appreciate everything that the team has helped me with, I've given this alot of thought and I've come to the conclusion that it's best that I part ways with the team.

I wish Exile 5 the very best of luck in the future and I hope they continue to thrive.

As many of you know, Juno 'Boosted' Kwon a.k.a x5.Cheater has recently been proven to have been boosted to gm. As such I think ample punishment is needed and thus I have decided that we should sentence juno to eternity in hell. Whilst this is usually reserved for murderers and rapists like kas we all know that being boosted to gm in a video game is pretty much equivalent to both of those combined.

Juno has been stripped of his titles of 'coach of x5 academy' and has been relegated to 'that... [Read More]

ME: “Hi there! I was just wondering if there was lettuce in that trolley?”
STRANGER: “Lettuce?”
ME: “Yeah, lettuce ask you a question!”

ME: “Excuse me, do you always do that?”
STRANGER (usually pretty or older lady”) “sorry?”
ME: “Do you always do what you did back there?”
STRANGER: “Do what?”
ME: “Take people’s breath away”

And there you have some of my favourite ice breakers I use at least 5+ times a day to varying success… What do I use those ice breakers for? Just for my new... [Read More]

This is part 1 of a 3-part blog series about leaving home and coming to Europe to compete for a full season

.
So I'm sitting here in the mYi house at my computer in the gaming room. We've just finished dinner and everyone is chilling out. Dot's sitting next to me flicking through twitter on her phone whilst waiting for a ladder game to que up. Botvinnik and Hobbit are watching streams behind me, Pengwin is watching the World Cup whilst playing 2v2s and Lilbow is playing CS. After less... [Read More]

So here we are, new season, new maps and new meta.

In the near future (season 3) I will be making my name back onto tournaments (playing not casting ) As for now, I have a solid booked out next 12 weeks, 3 days of streaming Starcraft 2 and 1 day of coaching a week with Billy (aka Flux).

With this said, coaching will be very back to basics and bring me more into a humble section of my play, I am trying to remove the persona that I am a bitter and arrogant player who puts across a "know it... [Read More]

Today, March 31 2014, I lost a very close and special friend. He passed away while me and my parents were at Hong Kong for 5 days till today. My brother brought him to the clinic yesterday, March 31, for his monthly checkup since he has had history of other illnesses. We then found out through my brother, who was left here in the Philippines, that he hasn't been eating lately and was only drinking water for the past week. (Also noticed that he started getting thinner since two weeks ago..)... [Read More]

So apparently i'm a lurker in this colorful community. It's time to share my thoughts and opinion to the world (the internet) ! ^__^. At the moment, the "F2" button will select all units on the entire map. In this post I will primarily focus on suggesting that we improvise the use of this wonderful button (F2). What if we only allow the "F2" button to select units which are not under the hold position "H" command. This will allow players to retain their scouting positions and help players to... [Read More]

This is the best conversation I've ever had

Sup guys! As some of you may know I left Fray yesterday and since I've been with the team for the entire lifespan I thought I'd write something up to explain my decision.

But first I want to say that my experience with Chadmann, Fray and before that Carnage has been amazing. I remember when Chad messaged me in SC2, almost 2 years ago now(?) asking me if I wanted to join Carnage at the recommendation of EdgE. I was pretty surprised, as I had only just started my journey into esports but Edge... [Read More]

So, the team I play for (in League of Legends) just qualified for regionals and Riot Oceania did a writeup. They put up a blurb and whatnot and a bunch of stuff. Yada yada, here's the link:

CLICK ME

However, they omitted and rephrased a hell of a lot of my stuff, after asking me to heavily elaborate, especially about WCS 2012 (which is a touchy issue for me). Just for the hell of it, here's the unedited version for you guys to compare. So, without further ado:

Sup SEA,

Stitch here.
I'm sure some of the older members of this community would know who I am and what I did before. If you don't... almost 2-3 years ago, I first started commentating on SC2SEA... I never really got anywhere near professional shoutcasting because of not having the internet at home to stream, being a student at a pretty academically competitive school, and also being in a city that hasn't put much emphasis on SC2. I decided to end my commentating 'career', if I may, when I... [Read More]

Okay so as a return to streaming I will once again be doing my best to play some starcraft for 24hrs.

If anyone would like to come and watch that would be awesome. I will be starting 4am (brisbane timezone) on the coming Saturday (7th).

This is essentially a way to get my stream noticed again and to see if I can gain some consistent numbers, will be a good fun event I hope, I will be playing terran and zerg for this event with the main focuses being getting my terran to a gold level, I... [Read More]

I'll take it I guess...maybe I'll try to break for this season....maybe... [Read More]

Final Fantasy IX Mini Review


For some backwards ass reason, one of my goals this year was to play through the PS1 Final Fantasy games that I missed out on (was deprived of?) as a child. I could have worked on my grades. I could have exercised more. I could have gone out and made more friends. But this was the choice that I made. Perhaps I need to straighten out some of my priorities.

I’m not going to meet my goal, but at the least I did complete Final Fantasy IX. And it was truly... [Read More]

So I've been playing a lot of Hearthstone recently, but for some reason have never managed to get past 2 wins in Arena. It seems that once I get up to 2 wins, my luck at drawing cards deteriorate immensely and I never get the cards I need.

It's probably a problem with my drafts, although I'm pretty sure I'm drafting ok.

Hearthstone's still a pretty fun game, just this part is very depressing.

In this blog I'm just going to go over what i got out of Season 4, and how much I've improved since the very start of the season.

I came back at the start of season 4 after a month break where I said "I'd never play again" after I lost embarrassing games at a Cydus tournament in Melbourne, after a month's break, I don't know what it was, but I just wanted to play to improve, and not really care so much, but only worry about learning, and getting better at the game. Throughout the whole... [Read More]

Some aLt were in Malaysia the other day to check out Legoland, which opened just recently. Its about a 30 min drive from Singapore.

Hi guys, I have been looking for Sc2 WoL CE SEA Edition preferably to deal locally. I live in Singapore.

Trying to look for a Mint/Unused one.

Pm me if you have.
Thanks

I really think its time I first create a blog and secondly dedicate it to all the awesome things my fiancé has created.

Some of you may have been lucky enough to experience them first hand.

[Caution, most creations are ToR biased]



First off what she is mostly known for, the most delicuos sweets ever created: caramel slice.


She also made cupcakes for a city hunter LAN:



She has also made a great one off baneling plushy without any patterns:

I love this thing^^

HI SEA~

I have mate that is currently looking for SC2 WoL collector's edition. Must be unopened/unused. Please state a price if you are willing to sell. We live in Perth so something local would be preferred but he will pay postage if from other towns/states.

Thanks Inter.

So my life has changed a little bit over the past year. About ten months ago I was picked up by iM and a lot of people had huge questions about who the hell I was and why I was chosen. Without going into extreme detail to unnecessarily justify myself, I was at University studying a borderline useless degree. This meant I could slack off and play StarCraft II 8-10 hours a day with no repercussions except a bunch of missed tutorials.

So when iM was looking for up-and-coming players I was lucky... [Read More]
