I voted for PiG on this one, he's been doing well lately in the sc2sea tournaments, would like to read the interview!

deL · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:07 PM

I wouldn't classify iaguz as up-and-coming. He was one of the top Terrans in beta and competed well in the very first Australian SC2 tournament, losing to pinder and glade to take 3rd place:

Also I think Scarecrow is switching to Terran

LennX · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:08 PM

I feel that we need to have some more non-SG or aussies players. There are already too many of them and it doesn't feel SEAish anymore.

some suggestions would be great

**sheepy** · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:17 PM

My vote goes to new faces that come out of the blue and perform well in tourneys. FAH , PIG or Jump imo, or perhaps jabito.

**inFeZa** · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:28 PM

i think you missed me
:P
oh wait im already awesome

TAminimat · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:36 PM

You're missing a poll option: minimat <-- I'd vote for him.

Well... LennX, you have a point, but this IS the best players - and I don't think it depends on nationality.

I voted for scrawL, I was casting him last night and he seemed like he had great potential in being a very competitive player. i'd love to see a player that is not as known around the SEA community to get better and rise to the occasion.

TASponge · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:40 PM

Rossi. Such a strong player.

TASponge · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:42 PM

Champi for tenth slot.

x5_Potter · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 6:54 PM

I definitely think ScrawL, anybody else thinking about switching to Zerg and getting lessons from Glade? With the new infestor buff, my thoughts are becoming more frequent.

DrunkPanda · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 7:00 PM

where am i?

NvPinder · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 7:09 PM

why is iaguz there? he came third in like, the first ever starcraft 2 aus tournament, hes hardly new to the scene ;o.

scrawL · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 7:37 PM

i never won BSG, you got the wrong scrawL lol

UncleTom · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 7:40 PM

I also confuse Skrawl and Scrawl all the time it is a common mistake to make.

Wawa · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:00 PM

I voted for jabito but I would love to see eXoEnderr in the list as well if the list is for mostly up and coming people.

eXoEnderr was 2nd in the SEASL bracket B and I have to say that he had some awesome games.

zendex · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:07 PM

For the tenth slot, I nominate EnDerr from the clan eXorbitant. He started dominating the Philippine StarCraft scene since 2009 with SC1 in StarFeeder Pinoy StarLeague defeating WCG 2007 Quarterfinalist, SteelHeart in the finals.

To follow-up his victory, he went on dominate finishing top 4 consistently in 2010's two Alienware Mineski Progaming League falling behind to the likes of eXo.BLaZeR, and MSH.YaX (who is now Mineski).

When SC2 was released, he immediately made the transition. October 2010, EnDerr completely destroyed everyone only dropping one game to Mski.Davsp in the group stages. On his way to finals, he defeated the likes of QNST.hellfire, QNST.def and Mski.Morvhin (all considered top PH players).

His latest achievements include winning Philippine StarCraft 2 League (defeating eXo.BLaZer in the finals), PSC-OSG Grand Prix (defeating Mski.JaBiTo in the finals) and most recently the Wawa Quickie Tournament Series (defeating Mski.JaBiTo again in the finals).

His impressive run so far including his 2nd place finish in SEASL Code A Bracket B has led me to make a nomination for him.

**nGenLight** · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:24 PM

Toss up between PiG and Rossi. Also mentioned iaguz is pretty old school.

**nirvAnA** · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:30 PM

removed scrawl, removed iaguz

added eXoEnderr

zendex · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:33 PM

EnDerr is Zerg :P

deL · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 8:41 PM

Yah but how many tournaments has Thailand won? Zero that's exactly how many. The only conclusion we can draw is that JuMP was a terrible manager so made a good player and I am a shit player so am therefore possibly the best manager this world has ever laid eyes on.

**cure** · Thu, 17th-Mar-2011, 10:05 PM

Definitely Jabito. Such an underrated player with talent.

I agree, because if that keeps being the case, then i guess we should rename the website to SC2SG&AU.com

Hey Kaz, have you tried 1v1'ing Jabito?

x5_Potter · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 6:29 AM

What about real Skrawl then? o.0

NvJazBas · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 6:30 AM

Fah or PiG!

**TAEdgE** · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 6:42 AM

All of them are so good, Fah is definitely the best of them but unfortunately i haven't played him myself yet.

PiG, Rossi and JaBito all seem really good, and since i've had personal practice with Rossi for 3 weeks (His TvZ has improved so much), i'm gonna go with him on that.

Alot of good names here though.

**PiG** · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 7:53 AM

Would like to see Jabito get featured and keep pimproving his play, watching that guy in the Allstar's tourney i was like, wow this guy's is GOOD.

A zerg that macros whilst counterattacking constantly? Unheard of!

When I first found Jabito, he was fresh off from DotA. He only knows how to micro his units. However, I saw the potential in him and took him in the Mineski clan (READ: UNsponsored... up to now). His execution and micro is insanely good. One of his first games that I watched was he used four infestors to neural parasite four thors to win a game that is otherwise unwinnable. I said to myself that this kid is something. He even jokingly said that buildings should macro by themselves and just let the players micro the units.

However, he was really willing to improve. He encountered the local top players who were complete bosses at macro. Ever since then he realized that if wants to beat these monsters, he has to be a monster.

The CnZ also took me by surprise. I was expecting him to drop to loser's bracket in the first round.

**nirvAnA** · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 11:08 AM

btw guys if you click on the numbers you can see who voted for who, now this is truly what you call a popularity contest, not the code s voting.

all alt voting for pig, all ta voting for rossi, all pinoy voting for jabito lol!!!

in hindsight i should have followed what i did in code s voting - disallowing voting for clansmates or for yourself (rossi cmon dude, TArossi voting for rossi lol!)

and unstable why did u vote for "TBD!" what!

any suggestions on what to do with these votes (discount clan/reset) or just roll with it as it is?

**sheepy** · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 11:13 AM

I don't think we should use this system. This is more like the "i want my friend to be featured" way of doing things. I don't think its about featuring someone whom you practiced with and think has potential, but rather previous no-names that suddenly performed well in tournaments. There should be something black and white as a requirement like a great run in a tournament, even if some feel that it is a one-off.

deL · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 11:57 AM

Either you have votes and make it a popularity contest or you think of something else, you don't doctor the votes under the assumption everyone is biased. TA probably just knows Rossi better than anyone else there so can't justify a vote for someone else as he seems like a good candidate - it's not always just blind voting for your teammate (otherwise sanchez and scarecrow would also have votes). Similarly for Jabito, he is known in the Pinoy community so they recognise someone they can vote for who deserves it.

He told me his dreams to one day be a professional starcraft player and told me his dreams and goals of his hard work with determination he will achieve his ultimate goal, and this was always his formula his dedication towards his dreams and ambitions have always been the same since the ice cream factory of 86 and then onwards to the future he has keep alive the way in which he achieved his way in wayward pool thrilling circulate world of the left. This is way a nominate kringe to be one if not the premier up and cuming player in the southern hemisphere, long live the king, long live emperor skrawl. (P.S. not to be confused with Scrawl).

Benji · Fri, 18th-Mar-2011, 12:05 PM

40 Bias votes are more accurate than 1

I heard a scream. A chilling scream.

I swiveled on the fly and ran in the direction of the scream.

The scream grew louder and louder as I closed in on its source and as I turned the corner, I stopped in my tracks.

The tableau before me was horrifying.

The nurse was holding a baby, but it was like no baby I had even seen.

It let out a shrill unearthly cry - at the time I did not know what it was, but now I recognise it as the chilling cry of a zergling hatching - and looked at me.

I am ashamed of this, but I ran.

I ran for my life.

I have been having nightmares of that day since then.

These nightmares have been becoming more frequent.

I know he's coming.

Even now I can hear his claws clacking against my front door.

I'm not going to make it much longer.

Please, everyone, run for your lives.
