Following the success of Nv.mOOnGLaDe at the Blizzard World Championship Series Oceania Finals, I'm pleased to announce two new additions to the team.
The first is Team Liquid's GTR - who has come on board as the team's official coach. We're very pleased to have him on board, as he'll be filling a necessary void which I've been struggling to find time for.
Before attending the WCS event in Sydney, I never really had much interest in the Starcraft II scene in Australia; sure, I knew a few names here and there, but never really focused my attention on it. However, over the weekend, after meeting many of the players and staff, talking to them about growing the game locally, it reignited my passion for the scene.
With so much untapped potential in the Oceania region, I had a talk with many of the Nv people, specifically Dox and deth, offering myself as a coach for the team; to help these talented players reach their potential. My job will me similar to what coaches are used in Korea for; to help players prepare for matches and provide advice whenever needed.
I'd like to thank not only Dox, but also the players for providing me with the opportunity to join their organization. I'd also like to thank Nv's sponsors, GAMECOM, Frag Labs and Horize for helping out not only Nv, but also Australian ESPORTS as a whole.

The second member to join the Nv family is the WCS New Zealand champion - JazBas.
For those who don't actively follow the SEA/Oceania scene, JazBas is nothing short of a local legend. In 2011, he was one of two SEA representatives who competed at the 2011 Blizzcon World Finals, where he narrowly lost to SEn in the first round of the upper bracket, and then proceeded to take down MajOr 2-0 in the lower bracket. He would eventually fall to China's TooDming in yet another close ZvZ series.
We're excited to have JazBas join the team, and we look forward to a very bright future together!
And last but not least, for those who haven't already heard, we recently announced that the team will be attending the MLG Dallas Championships in November! We're looking forward to meeting a lot of wonderful people, and showing the world what we can do in the Open Bracket. (Both deth & mOOnGLaDe recently qualified for the MLG Summer Arena, however due to scheduling conflicts & passport delays, were unable to accept the invitation.)
