[Grav]Kreos
"Kreos started playing off and on after the release of WoL as his first ever RTS. During the summer he decided to take SC2 more seriously and broke into GM every season since, placing as high as 19th on the ladder. As of yet he hasn't played in any serious LANs, but is attending the Gameclucks LAN in Seattle, Washington on September 21st. Kreos is now regularly streaming on twitch with commentary on his games, be sure to check him out!"
[Qntc]Macgeolli
"Macgeolli is one of Quantic's rising Terran stars. Despite being one of the youngest players in Quantic, he has proven that he can definitely play on par with the other sc2 veterans. As of now he does not have any significant tournament results, but he has pulled a lot of upsets in clan wars most especially against Goswser, and this has gained him some attention as one of the newer players to watch out for."
[Grav]Semper
"Semper started playing after the release of WoL. He played casually at the time, until he started following the pro scene of SC2. Shortly after playing more seriously, he was able to break into GM and consistently holds a top 100 spot on the NA ladder. His growth as a player has been steady and he is definitely a player we can rely on to pull through for our team in tough matches. Semper hasn't played in any LAN's and only tried a few online cups - making it to the finals of Playhem a couple times, but most recently he did manage to make it to the RO16 of a WCS America Qualifier and was casted live on WCS."
[SCA]Bioice
"Bioice has been around the indie scene for quite a while, having previously competed with Triumph eSports. Since his switch to Team .SCA, he has been one of their most solid players to date. His arsenal includes the ability to produce long macro games, but also destructive allins."
[Grav]KoreanAir
"KoreanAir started playing one year after the release of Starcraft 2. Before Starcraft, he played Age of Empires 3. He started playing ladder 1 year ago and has been improving quickly. He's a high master Zerg who's goal is to reach top 50 GM on NA, and plans to compete in more LAN's in the near future. KoreanAir streams almost everyday around 7-8 PM EST and does commentary for viewers."
[SCS]Coyote
"Coyote started playing SC2 at release and was hooked from the very first game he played. He loved everything about it, and has been playing ever since. He's been around strategy a lot of his life, even before he played BW/WC3 and some other strategy games. When Coyote heard people can be professional gamers, (something he's dreamed of since he was young) he went to work immediately. Coyote's game play has improved a lot and he's looking to further improve it still, by far."
"What I know now is to work as hard as you can to make your dream come true and quitting is not an option. No matter what." - [SCS]Coyote

Team Gravity's SpaceWhales
"SpaceWhales is a supreme conscious entity, sentenced to incarnation on earth by his fellow space dwelling cetaceans, as consequence for an incident involving public defecation, masturbation, and other obscenities better left unspoken (it was nastier than Japanese porn). Utilizing his human vessel, SpaceWhales casts Team Gravity’s clan wars, projecting an erection-inducing balance of energy, insight, and humor, to facilitate the optimal viewer experience.
The will to expand his knowledge of competitive gaming is what motivates SpaceWhales to commentate on high-level Starcraft 2 matches: He intends to absorb as many strategic and tactical dynamics, as he will eventually apply them to his human vessel’s overarching life objective of establishing the pinnacle of conscious experience in the digital realm, also functioning as counter-propaganda towards the socio-economic matrix of entrapment."
Tampa eSports' Shadow
"Shadow is an astrophysicist, currently studying distant radio galaxies using interferometry at USF. The goal of the research is to determine if there is a pattern to the orientation of radio galaxies throughout the universe or if it is simply random. This will give us further insight into the origin of the universe.
He is also a self-employed software and hardware engineer. Shadow was a Masters Terran near the end of WoL but has since switched primarily to coaching his five man team and running the Starcraft 2 and sponsorship divisions of Tampa eSports. He says he is particularly drawn to Starcraft 2 by its extraordinarily high skill ceiling. It gives him many opportunities to develop optimum learning, coaching and training strategies, as the functioning of the brain is another area he's particularly interested in.
Shadow announces every live cast/coaching corner he does on his twitter @rmdeluca. Most of his Starcraft 2 content is hosted at twitch.tv/tampaesports and youtube.com/tampaesports."

Tampa eSports
Founded in early 2013, Tampa eSports aims to bring together the local gaming community to play and compete with each other. Tampa eSports was originally started by a small group of Starcraft 2 players who wanted to bring the LAN experience to Tampa Bay. However because of the overwhelming feedback from the community, Tampa eSports has expanded to include other games like League of Legends, DotA 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in its future events, both offline LAN and online.
Tampa eSports is a grassroots organization looking to promote eSports and help the local gaming community grow.
"I am sponsoring the Team Gravity showmatches because I see a solid NA team in Gravity and want to help increase its success." - Rob "Shadow" DeLuca - Tampa eSports Starcraft 2 Director & Coach
