Q&A with x5 Academy Recruit - Arrival

Another quick Q&A session with fine young gentleman Stephen (Steben) "Arrival" Kung. Worthy of note is that Steben once ate 5 crazy wings in one night. The intestinal fortitude required to accomplish such a feat, in itself, demands great respect and admiration.

Q: So who are you:

My name is Stephen, I play jerg master race.

Q: What's your background in Starcraft

First ever RTS game, my brother and I got introduced to it by a friend back in 2011. Played only 4v4 and 2v2 with friends until I a group of friends decided to form a clan and we got serious about practicing for a clan league. The SEACL (nostalgia feels) was where I first got a taste of competitive Starcraft which led to going to LANs, ACLs, respawns and MC net. Ever since I've lurked around participating from time to time in weekly's

Q: What else do you do?

I am currently studying a teaching/science degree.

Q: What's your most memorable moment in SC2

My most memorable moments would definitely be:

• Getting to play on stage (and getting rekt) at ACL Melbourne 2012 and then the next day the room
  
• exploding when PiG beat Mafia. Such a good atmosphere
  
• Achieving grandmaster on NA

Q: What are your goals

My goals for this summer is to once again reach GM and make a name for myself in this scene.

Q: Tell us something that no one knows about you

Ummmmmm, I own 6 mechanical keyboards. Girls want all the shoes. I want all the different switches.

Q: Is there anything else that you would like to add?

A big thanks to x5 for giving me this opportunity and taking a chance with me!
