BlinG has been part of Team Dignitas since March 2011 and was discovered during the Dignitas Gamer Search beating Lau to that coveted position. He has gone from strength to strength since then, however he isn't alone PuReBall and dApollo are also British team members. Everyone know Dignitas and Everyone should know BlinG!
Simple if you WanT to support the next UK SUPERSTAR or you just want someone to keep your eye on BlinG is your guy. Come on at least give the UK a choice (DeMusliM showmatch anyone?)
Blings awesome, I've met him at the last 2 iseries events and hes a pretty cool guy. Hes also got alot of potential to be a damn scary good player and I cant wait too see how badass he gets after his trip to Korea :D
Sign me up!!
ps. feel honoured bling, this is the first fanclub I've signed upto
All updated, you are now all official members congrats and huzzah! I'll update with loads of stuff as much as I can I'll post an interview he's doing next week with the new Dignitas editor as soon as it goes up, should be a good one! GLHF all, you all rock!
We've all just been wishing BlinG and the Dignitas boys good luck in Korea today, I heard he was going to be there for 2 months but he said he would be back for i45 hope you will be too!
Anyone else thinking drinking competition to see who is the biggest BlinG fan?
I feel bad joining this thread after WCG as I've watched Bling when ever I've seen him streaming. His WCG performance really impressed me, likely only losibg to the eventual winner.
Thanks Freeze! You rock dude, I'm putting them in the OP if anyone finds the replays/VOD's before me feel free to post them, just struggling for time today lol glhf all :-)
Sign me up, been a big fan since he first streamed months ago, didn't realise there was a fan club. We got super excited when we saw the WCG results! So good!
Englands No2!! Nice, good results in WCG (i say good i mean amazing) really impressed with his play as of late.
Also, after hearing him on HSC he has won me over as a proper fan, he speaks very highly and seems to know alot more about the game than i though, need to get him some killer practice to be as good as England's No1 but still alot of respect!!
Now...need to find a good EnglishZerg player hmmm xD

Awesome game 1 from BlinG (War of the Roses), amazing storm drops and army positioning with him never really engaging unfavourable fights. Already a fan but I would sign up again if I could!
SO SO happy for his emergence, we are starting to build an English team worthy of the monarch! Been watching his stream, this guy just doesn't lose, at least not when I am watching.
ok, idra is not even playing and is 3rd thread in the fan club? Bling is actualy kicking ass in assembly, taking games from awesome koreans in assembly and is in the 3rd page of the fan clubs? Let's show him some love!!!!
Your training with Stephano seems to work out, you did really nice PvZ even when on the backfoot. GL for the end of the tournament!!!
BlinG goes out of the ASUS ROG Winter 2012 after losing 2 - 0 to Elfie on day two. But let's not forget his amazing run yesterday coming top of his group and defeating Phoenix and Polt

You are one awesome mother, he must feel so supported and relaxed having you.

Well BlinG played really well at MLG Columbus and made it all the way through the open bracket facing Thorzain, he took the first game in a tense 40 min match, only to lose the following 2 games which sent him down into the losers bracket round 9. He then faced Polt losing 2-0 bringing a sad end to his stunning run in this challenging tourney. Congrats BlinG we still love you <3 In the mean time, check out his gr8 interview at MLG yesterday with a guest appearance from TLO! Lol :-) http://youtu.be/YkRN3LSBXHA
This boy makes stomping everyone in his own country look easy as hell, some pretty good competition as well fargo isn't a slouche especially in TvP and he stomped him easily only dropped game was to lau who's easily no.3 in Britain right now so seriously sick performance.

Fargo is in very bad shape rightnow because he had a long break from SC2. I recently played him on ladder, hes like a 900-1000P masters player rightnow lol Lau is also not BlinG's level, pretty inactive lately. JohnnyRecco is easily the 3rd best UK player at this point. Congrats to BlinG although it was rather easy :D

Haven't seen much of JohnnyRecco but I remember lau making the finals of WCG UK and doing pretty well at British events and didn't know about fargo going on a break but I'll take your word for it.
Seeing as this is the biggest UK tourney, BlinG HAD to win it. Would have been a more prestigious win if the competition was stronger, but hey, a win's a win!, and so very well deserved by the UK's no 1 DignitasBlinG i45 Champion :-)
Hey all, this is BlinG's mom :-) I'm being interviewed tonight by @SC2Ava for @TeamDignitas, so as a gamer mom and mother of @dignitasBlinG is there anything u wanna know? Please tweet to @SC2Ava ty :-)
BlinG is forced into the lower bracket after a couple of close matches against DRG. So next, BlinG faces Bly at around 6pm UK time: http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/live
Excited for Day 2 of the Home Story Cup in Germany. The new seedings were made last night in organised chaos which was very funny indeed! BlinG is in Group B with YongHwa, Nerchio and Snute, All groups are here: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/HomeStory_Cup/5
(This is BlinG's mum!) OK at 12.30 (UK Time) that's just under half an hour! the INSOMNIA 46 SC2 GRAND FINALS will take place between BlinG and JRecco - come and cheer for BlinG! http://www.twitch.tv/definitive_esports
You may pick other players, so you can either be tactical in your choice (picking players with low number of votes) or just include BlinG in your preference - I went for an all Brit vote!
WELL DONE to @dignitasBlinG who wins the show match vs Kas winning 5 - 1 in Bo9 Showmatch by HDcRYTV BlinG will stream in about 30 mins here: http://www.twitch.tv/dignitasbling
WCG UPDATE: BlinG beats HasuObs 2-0 and comes 4th in group stages, alas it's not enough to break-out. But he played really well against some tough opponents. Results here: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/World_Cyber_Games_2013http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/World_Cyber_Games_2013
Just wanted to say it was really nice to see a British player do well. To reach the round of 16 in WCS EU is very impressive. Will definitely look out for you in future.
