The hype was real!

Hey hey,

So after reaching diamond league all the way back in season 2, 2013, I thought to myself 'how awesome would it be to make masters?' the answer is obvious, it would feel incredible.

Season after season I kept going and going, playing game after game - even after my laptop fried itself, I still went to the netcafe to grind out some ladder sessions and practice games. Though I was always hopeful, season after season passed and I had still not reached my target. Time after time, people would always ask me 'masters yet?' although it frustrated me to be asked this, I used it to keep pushing for it. I won my first GPD and then a month later won it again and finally started to think 'maybe this season it might happen?' Time and time went on and quite often would find myself getting frustrated laddering. After reading the likes of pezz who spent 8-9 months in diamond before eventually getting to masters and then pig who i remember saying somewhere that it was getting to him staring at rank 1 masters on korea but kept pushing til he reached grandmaster - kinda made me relax into thinking that hey, it might not be today, might not be tomorrow.. but it will happen.

The support from the sc2sea community is certainly immense, I could name alot of people who have helped to either practice match ups with me, offer some encouragement, some different ideas of the game and just general friendly/supportive people.

After the long awaited 'masters yet?' and 'HYPE!' whenever I would be streaming and versing a masters player, it has finally happened

So just wanna say thanks to those who have been supportive in this quest to masters, you guys know who you are and you're awesome

Re: The hype was real!

You are easily one of my most favourite person in SC2SEA. Congrats that you finally got it, even though this is like the 248057th time I've wished you. You deserve it after so much work put in!

Bad news is, no more GPD related tournaments for you!

Hey Enak,

Congratz again mate! Knew you'd get it with all the hard work you've been putting in this season. Hopefully all the games where you fkn destroyed me helped you get there :P

Awesome to see the vod and the reaction, especially you're mum(?) checking if you're ok after you shouted out hahaha

Sucks I wont get to play you in GPD ect, but good to know I'll continue to get rekt in practise matches!
