I'll paste final comment on the matter here (since was personally tagged in twitter chain). Trying to reply via twitter (while afk) with limited characters made attempts look like a mess and not get information across. Also not sure that twitlonger app can reply directly to certain tweets, nor do i have access to another suitable blog platform, so here works best
i got the idea to do this because a few people have done it/talked about it lately, and knowing my opinion on the matter is un-biased and 100% factually accurate, i present:
Rize's (totally not biased) Top 5 SEA Players Power Rankings
1. syf`Crimson
Crimson, or Uncle Ben as he's called by some, is number one because his magical abilities with a deck of cards is unparalleled, and his ability to have shit internet for 364/365 days of the year is something I never thought... [Read More]
So instead of putting this off and putting it off... (not doing it) I'll just write some words now about ACL Melbourne and hope people read it~
(Gonna write it in blocks of my favourite experiences at melb)
THE ******* TRAFFIC
Holy ****. Never bloody going by car again, there are too many people in Melbourne for a car to be a viable mode of transport.
Matt93 is a liar, Melbourne is shit. (jk, only matt is shit)
The people also never waved when you let them into a lane...... [Read More]
It's been a constant theme last year, that even though my results in LANs almost mirror former player "Light" who was worshipped as the SEA Protoss god, I'm severely underrated and not even placed in many top 8 lists that go flying around.
I'm not exactly sure why this is, maybe it's my boasting, maybe it's my ego, I do/have a lot of both. However, since results are what matters, I'm going to talk a little bit about my 2014 and why I think I deserve at... [Read More]
So this is a short.. maybe long blog about how im reconditioning myself for the better.
Last night i bare witnessed to ( in my opinion ) MASSIVE flaws in how i play sc2.
after several games vs nxz i noticed the following
-re-boxing and double checking commands issues to units- caused by lack of accuracy and bad mouse control which i later took photos and recorded how i held the mouse and did some simple tests to find i from older habit using palm grip actually leave a large section of my... [Read More]

Just wanted to throw this out there as its got me excited.
The owner of the Barracks (canberra net cafe) has joined forces with *name of person here* to open up an esports orientated bar with the net cafe to be known as the barracks 2.0 moving to upstairs. This should hopefully see some local tournaments around grand opening.
One of the owners has made a separate blog to show some progress. If you're interested look here (pictures included): ... [Read More]
A few weeks back, the glorious Chinny Chin Chin (Slayer) and myself decided to see who gets to Plat first on the most glorious of all servers, SEA (Kappa).
Today, after playing my first game after not playing for almost a week..
The glorious popcorn provider of SC2SEA had a few things to say:
Australia was somewhere that I've always wanted to visit. All the beautiful sceneries that I've heard of, the slow-paced culture that it has (compared to Singapore’s relatively pressurizing one), and everything else it has to offer, definitely made me want to travel there. And this year, I had the opportunity. Thanks to x5 and NVIDIA, I’ve got a chance to travel to Sydney!
Day One
After spending my first hour in Sydney soil, the first impression was how expensive the public transportation... [Read More]
Blog Post
SEAcraft Weekly and SEAcraftTV is something that I have been thinking about ever since I joined the SEA community. Back then we had a number of weekly tournaments and there wasn’t really room for another, so I put it on hold, in the back of my mind.
Earlier this year, I failed utmost at trying to put together a team league like the old SEACL . This was because of both internal and external factors. The changes to ladder meant that there was a dearth in the number of BSG players... [Read More]
So this week started my new routine of having at least 2 focused replay analysis days. The analysis days are there for me to go over each game find the 3 first mistakes in a game, regardless of the result.
The mistakes are categorised into 3 aspects: Macro, Micro or Scouting. They are broken down into the following format.
Macro: Any error in the game caused by not following the macro cycle. Inject, spend larva, build (infrastructure, upgrades) spreed creep
Introduction:
Hey, this is Lachlan ‘Phoenix’ Leslie - I’m one of SYF GAMING’s Starcraft 2 Australian Zerg players. Recently, I was lucky enough to take a look at MSI's R9 270X from their HAWK overclocking series. The R9 270X is part of AMD’s latest line-up of graphic cards, with the 270X falling within the mid-range GPU performance spectrum. MSI’s HAWK Edition 270X looks to add a little bit of flair and pizazz over the stock variant of the R9 270 card. Cooling is a primary focus of MSI’s... [Read More]

Hey guys,
As most of you (99%) might not know is that I have had like a month or so break for Starcraft and been playing a lot and a lot of LoL and there was a few things I have learnt. The Community
The community in League of Legends seriously in my opinion is centered around megalomania and the fact they believe as individuals they are an aryan like person. I have been in a lot of ranked games while playing LoL and honestly the amount of ridiculousness I experienced while be a part of that... [Read More]
As the game hasn’t gone through too many patches yet, I thought I’d make a record of my thoughts and progress. I’ll go through each of the heroes’ cards I have experience with first.
Hero experience in order:
1 - Rogue
2 - Mage
3 - Shaman
4 - Hunter
This is strictly just my personal playstyle, I have no idea if it’s the best or worst way to play. So this week let’s start with Rogue.
I’ve seen so many different styles of rogue. Although they may seem the same (coin + Defias Ringleader)... [Read More]
Firstly i want to apologise for the recent events of Satiini and delayed pX payments.
Ive learnt a valuable lesson here that you should never run tournaments if you don't have the resources to actually run them. Whether the resources be money, gear or venues.
Now onto the topic of the recent state of Phoenix eSports and the future. I guess this is my official 'standing down' thread, i will no longer be running or even be a part of Phoenix eSports in the future. Im focusing on school and... [Read More]
The best hotel service we've experienced ever. 6 star service! I wonder if its the same throughout the world or just in Singapore.
I was quite proud of myself for discovering how to create an artificial depth of field effect (blurry background) purely by using premiere. (Start of video) Then i realised that oh shit the subject cannot move LOL oh well too late.
I also did a time lapse thing at the end.. the singapore flyer isn't supposed to move so fast check out the ships... [Read More]
Okay so in recent times, it's seeming to me I have way too many bad habits while playing Starcraft 2. So as of right now, I aim to improve myself as a player.
How I aim to do this, regular coaching, going over replays, learning simple builds that improve macro to improve my consistency. I will also be streaming anytime I play so viewers can also offer constructive criticism.
I will be making essentially a video diary including some game footage on what I have improved on for that particular... [Read More]
Not sure if this is the right place to post this buuuuuuuuuuuuuut....
I've got a friend who bought a pair of Rezer Kraken Headphones. It's been unboxed, opened and used ONCE but that's all.
Now...here's the problem. Poor sod's has got hearing problems and his gf doesn't like the idea of him possibly damaging it further.
Soooo...this is where I come in. You could say I got stuck in the crossfire between the two. The gf wants him to give it her (no idea if she's gonna use it...) whereas... [Read More]
