herb[Shield] will soon take on legendary zerg player July. I submit to you that the legend of herb[Shield] will soon outshine even this zerg monster. Some of you may wonder "Who is this herb[Shield]?"

Here are some things that have been said about newcomer herb[Shield]:

His PvP makes BeSt look like DeCent!


One time I saw a zerg's overlord intentionally scout the other way out of fear of herb[Shield]. herb[Shield] tracked it down and killed it anyway."


I have no words for this +1/legspeed rush that I've just witnessed.


So what if all of those things were said by me, right now. You are now intrigued by the allure of herb[Shield].

STX vs OGN, the debut of herb[Shield]! Check your local listings!

Does he shield things from the herb, or does he use the herb as a shield?

The intrigue continues.

The guy who beat Best was inyeon[3.33]. Anyway, herb's chances to win against July seem pretty slim.
When I came home I expected a surprise and there was no surprise for me, so, of course, I was surprised.
