Hey everyone,
My name is Lachlan "Phoenix" Leslie, and I recently found out I just got placed in groups for ACL Melbourne. It was a huge surprise to me because I thought for sure I hadn't made it. I already had plans and had booked flights and a room to go down to Melbourne with my dad, but when I found out that I was actually in groups I freaked. It was really awkward because I was in the middle of watching the new wolverine movie and the cinema's. Also I wouldn't recommend shouting and jumping up and down in a movie... People tend not to like it :P. Anyways back to starcraft, i'm kind of a now name in the SEA scene not winning any weeklies and not doing overly well at the one city hunter LAN I've been to where i placed in the top 16 getting 3-0'd by kingkong, since then I've slowly been getting better wanting to really make it somewhere one day in a big LAN, and now with being placed in groups with Megafonzie, Petrify and Petraeus, who are all very very daunting opponents for me, specially since I'm a no name, and with the possibility of more strong players coming up from the open bracket I don't have the highest of expectations for this LAN, I wish to just use it as more of a launch pad to get my name out there and be a little more recognised throughout the community.
Anyways, my apologies for the randomly typed up blog and bad grammar, but if anyone would like to know more about me I guess you can ask here (If that's ok? o.O ) And I'd also like to make a small cry for help, with such daunting opponents in my group I'm asking for help from any protoss or zerg players that would like to help an under dog out and help him make a name for himself. Contact me here i guess? (Again only if it's ok)
Yeah... anyways I guess I've rambled enough to express my excitement
SEE YOU ALL AT MELBOURN!
Phoenix is a pretty cool dude, definitely a name to watch out for in future LANs
Gratz on getting into groups man, it's gonna be really tough for you to get out with such big names in there, but best of luck to you dude.
It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

I can still remember how disappointed you were when I knocked you out when you were one round from making the groups. It's good to see you ended up making it to the groups! I wish you the best of luck
