Here I am, taking out my rubbish and putting my groceries away, and a random thought strikes me. I drop my groceries and run to my room immediately just so I could create this blog.
Andrew Eddie Edwards - otherwise known as FaDeEdOne.
Why is he my favourite? He does so much for the scene. He contributes his own hard earned money. He takes the time to help out with ALL tournaments every chance he gets. He runs his own monthly event which is by far one of the most successful, most watched, smoothest and most competitive events - despite the severe lack of prize money. He aims for growth by polling the community on how the event can improve. He includes international participants in order to increase exposure. He runs to a committed monthly schedule, and never drops the ball. He never even asks for a hint of credit, he never downplays anything or anyone. He gives people chances to promote and grow their own brands with his events. He cycles commentators regularly in order to share the love around. He's polite and friendly in person. He's humble as **** and gives more to the scene than almost everyone else. Honestly, he's one of the most valuable people in our community and I just want to highlight it because there are probably a tremendous amount of people who simply don't know.
I agree with all of the above sentiments. Masters Cup has been a great event for a long time and he's a nice guy in person, and is becoming a pretty damn good starcraft player.
