Also I will preface this by saying I am not directly affiliated with ONOG so anything I say here is purely a personal statement/opinion.

Told from my perspective about the upcoming player Illusion, Terran player for Vile gaming. -------------- It's not often I get to watch a player improve quite like Chris has over the past year, after some games t...

So before this past week it had been about a full year and a half since I had really played broodwar. Of course I played a game here or there on a friends pc or at a la...

Since there won't be any upcoming events or anything major that I am planning to play or compete in for SC2 till next year I feel it's a great time for me to switch back to full broodwar for a couple weeks. I will stream as often as possible as w...

I was thinking after playing a ladder game earlier this afternoon that one thing I find interesting is how spiteful people get over such ambiguous terms such as all-in and cheese...I cannot deny that I personally have built a bit of a reputation for being all-in for those that know me as a player. I ...

Back when IPL3 was announced I decided I was going to choose between this event and MLG Orlando. Considering I had been to 3 MLG events this year already, and Atlantic City is a 3hr drive vs a 10hr Orlando drive it ended up being a pretty easy decision to attend the IPL event. I think I c...

The storm is massive and could become a category 4 storm for a brief period of time on Thursday (tomorrow) that much is certain. No matter which track it takes there will most likely be weather impacts in Raleigh Saturday through Sunday morning. The storm is still 4 days out and there's always a huge deal of uncertainty...

He shows up at 10:50 local time for a match that was scheduled at 10:40 local time, MLG gives 10 minutes grace period to show up and White-Ra shows up in the last minute of his window. 90% of the rest of round 2 is still in...

But I will still watch as much as I can and support the following players. I thought it would be fun to write a little bit on everyone that I will be cheering for in open bracket action. I bet most of them will read this too... I might add...

A game where I felt was a for sure loss, then for sure a draw, became an extremely close elimination victory thanks to some on the fly decision making and a bit of luck. (This game was played on Nor...

Have there been any foreign players (or even Koreans) who have switched from Protoss or Zerg to playing Terran as their main? And I don't care about random guys who have like 2 games in their tlpd I'm talking somebody who was actually legit. I can think of more players off t...

Like 4 months ago a guy msgd me for coaching for an EU account. I was like yeah sure so I coached him for an hour and in return he gave me an EU account.

It's highly annoying as a competitor to constantly have to worry about this. I don't stream and I've been told it's really hard if not impossible to set up a delay to the stream with a majority of the streaming ...
