I'm not much of a lunch person. I really really don't like sandwiches which makes lunches quite difficult. Typically much lunches consist of bits and pieces of food that I just happen to have available. For instance, I usually just eat a pie for lunch when I'm at uni since its relatively inexpensive and I usually skip lunch all together when I'...

You probably know me as a writer for this site, or that guy who organizes liquibition when he's not lazy, or perhaps that guy who keeps trying to push liquipedia along. Maybe you just know me because I banned you, warned you, or sent you a random pm saying that your posts are awesome. Regardless, this post is going to reveal a lot more about me than you probably want to know,...

It's no secret, there isn't a team out there that doesn't want Jaedong on their team. Jaedong has the best practice mentality out of any gamer and apparently is a pleasure to coach. He is bound for greatness in many ways. Indeed, the team who snaps him up will have a huge shot at winning the proleague - as shown by Hwaseung. KeSPA's bullshit rules mean that J...

After all, this is a post featuring video content not my literary genius [or lack, thereof]. The intro video for any SC league is one of utmost importance. It sets the tone for the entire league. If your league has a shitty opening, chances are fans are going to be...

Nevertheless, it seems that I am only writing these bi-weekly; that's mostly because I've never been so busy in my life T_T! In the face of this workload, it gives me great pleasure to be able to write about something which does mean a lot to me and write for a site ...

And technically, they shouldn't win this week, but they should have won last week. And seeing as Ace probably won'...

So what crazy thing am I doing this time around. Well, given the huge interest in Proleague thanks to fantasy I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of these teams and get to know them better. The scene has changed so much since I was fluent with all the teams, so now is a good time for me personally to get f...

The new and unique things that present themselves to you when you have the merging of two distinct identities is always a wondrous thing. This week my life has been completely entranced by my recent discovery of a band that draws together two completely different music genres into something brilliant. Those who know me will know that ...

But for now, you can settle with this game which will be #1 on the list as it is without doubt the greatest 2v2 game ever played. Iron Curtain - Best 2v2 map ever? Quite...

I've literally been around the world and seen some great places. Perhaps my favorite trip was to Hong Kong last year with a group of friends who were graduating the year above me. It was awesome just to let loose in HK (and later Japan) and essentially live in a completely foreign place for us for a solid ...

Getting knocked on your ass sucks - and today, thats exactly what happened to me. Today was my mid-semester test for Maths 253 (aka last elementary calc paper for university) and with summer scholarships being awarded soon every grade counts. That being said, i am almost certain to get a summer scholarship by virtue of arrang...

And of course, thats for a very good reason - he's fucking good. So when Jaedong loses a final to a player only weeks prior was thought a scrub 0-3, you know theres something up. Furthermore, when arguably the best player in the world loses to ...

In fact this blog will likely provoke some harsh criticism from virtually every member on this site. But this blog speaks of a harsh reality - one which we all hope never would actually eventuate.

You may know him better as the guy who designed Legacy of Char. Anyway, we gamed frequently and talked a lot and then one day in early March he started swearing to me repeatedly on MSN. I said “whats wrong Lee?” to which he simply replied “I’m being called up for military service T_T!” We count...

Sometimes it is on the big stage, such as Sea's epic game against Goodfriend on old Peaks, other times its in the mass of games from proleague. While this game was noticed by TL - it is a year later and it warrants a revival. Eh? Who is this guy? We all know that Stork was one of the best proleague players last season. In...

Of all gamers, PuSan is perhaps the most avid recaller of the lot. In 2007 he demonstrated that he was not afraid to tackle the sunk/spore/lurk defense with Recall against Calm on Tau. He also showed that he preferred to use Arbiter...

This is an obvious problem but one which i cannot solve because I'm not Live2Win with a massive VOD collection. Alas, this will probably be the last blog specifically dedicated to yellow.

So in order to rectify this deficit, I'll continue writing about the Storm Zerg and posting some of his famous, not so famous and downright awesome games.
