This is my first blog post here at TL. I will introduce myself and give you a hint of who I am, and what my goals are.
I'm a 28 year old guy living in central Sweden. Recently I quit my day job to go living with my GF. In aprox 2-3 months I will be able to play Starcraft 2 full time. If I'm going to or not is yet to be decided.
My history from gaming is mostly FPS from Quake 2 and 3. I've been a gamer ever since I got my computer about 15 years ago, and I've always been dedicated to competitive multiplayer. My most successful 'career' was with Warcraft 3 classic.
--- Warcraft 3 ---
I played in the clan iCE cLIMBERS wich was by far most known as a Quake 3 clan. However we managed to beat a few well known and well respected clans in europe at that time.
My 1v1 career haven't been what it could've, but I'm proud of some wins during my active time. And no, I won't name drop :p
During Wc3 I played both Undead and Human. Still can't decide which one I like most. I have always hated Night Elf tho
About one year after TFT was released I stopped playing.
--- Starcraft 2 ---
I managed to get ahold of the Sc2 beta around patch 7 or so. I loved the game at that point and decided I wanted to aim high. At the release I focused pretty intense and got into diamond pretty easy. But after the first three weeks I got really really tired because of work and couldn't really focus.
--- The relaunch ---
And now! Within a few months from now I will be unemployed for some time and will be able to focus 100% on Sc2, depending on the mood ofc
I will play Protoss in 1v1, and all races in team.
My goal and focus will be the 1v1 masters league. Will probably not have too much problem getting there, but we'll see.
My APM varies from 80 (on a bad day) to 180.
--- Stream and webpage ---
I will be streaming basically evenings (CET) and weekends until my unemployment starts. The stream can hopefully be found here on TL in the future, but until then you can go to justin.tv/icmort
I will upload replays I find entertaining to my webpage cet-gaming.com (and here in this blog).
--- Shoutouts ---
