"Let's start off with an introduction. Tell us a little bit about yourself Sam, how long have you been involved in eSports and StarCraft2? What do you like to do outside of StarCraft activities/hobbies etc.

I'm an 8 year military veteran, culinary chef, and video game shout-caster. I've been involved with eSports for only about 4-5 months with my casting and streaming, but I've been casting for over a year now. Outside of StarCraft I usually love to watch movies and continue to try out new and interesting recipes. I've even been hosting my own cooking show on my stream which is a lot of fun!

You are now going to be the official compLexity Academy caster, how do you feel taking on this role?

This is an amazing offer to be able to work with a big team on a more constant basis! I really think it's going to be able to push my career to an all time high and hopefully I'll be able to grow my skills as a shout-caster.

What would you say are some of you casting strengths? Where are some areas you are looking to improve?

My casting strengths are my ability to talk on an almost constant rate haha and engaging the chat while not taking away too much from the cast itself. I feel I'm fairly good at the play by play style of casting but I could use an analytical side mixed in.

We are very excited to offer this opportunity to you! Is there anyone out there you would like to thank, or give a shout out too?

I would like to thank all the teams that have let me cast their games up until now. I'd also like to give a special thank you to my friends Pascal and Kevin!

The capability to design an appropriate Lord of The Rings joke escapes me at the moment.

Good luck to Sam!

I really like the idea behind this. coL Academy is something that I admire since it allows potential pros to kind of test the waters of the professional regiment and scene without diving in, and having a designated master for it will highlight these up and coming players. I've watched a few matches casted by Sam and I like his style. Overall a good pick up and good initiative from Complexity's management, and I hope it works out well for all parties.

This guy is an idiot. He trolls public channels looking to cast "show matches" when really he's just spectating friends screwing around in custom games. Good luck I guess.

Only thing that he has going for him is, that insane work ethic. I am not a fan of him, but hopefully he will get better that he is casting for a team.
a grand adventure is about to start

Had a fun time going on with Sam and his co-caster Joe after ESEA games vs ROOT. He's really professional when he's casting and has been taking up so many offers to help people. Also, there is his awesome cooking show which you can find here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=368908 which is going to have EGMachine on the next episode.

Good to see everyone in Acad working hard ^_^
That guy that uses Skytoss huehuehe - Complexity Academy - twitch.tv/kyo7763 - twitter.com/Kyo7763 - Anime is cuter than you.
