Hovz actually was really good at the game. Combatex never was good at the game...

I just figure that hovz was like a pathological liar or something, because some of those stories he told me in channel were really weird. Like he'd tell me about how he needs to keep a pistol in his car, and then kept rambling on about how this terran proxy raxed him.

I beat this guy TvT ages ago and he called me a hacker, good times.

Last I saw of him, he was on a poker forum challenging people to a 10k fight. Maybe that was a different hovz.

No. He was actually like really good in the American starcraft scene. CombatEX has never and will never be good. He was an arrogant douche bag, but he was a lot funnier and wittier than CombatEX.



Fakesteve did a sweet mspaint of Hovz authoring a book called "My life as a broodwar god", but I can't find it.

Dunno what being black has to do with anything... but... w/e... HovZ in my opinion was never that good. When Team USA was first made, he made the team and was top 10 USA material but even then, I used to be able to beat him and at that point, I played Terran and completely sucked. This is back in the early days of Grrrr... and Elky. Once the game evolved a little bit and players got better, HovZ couldn't keep up. Artosis, Nyoken, Rekrul, Froz, Assem, Day[9], and others were, and still are, far better than him.

Yes. He showed up to his house, knocked on the door, and hit him because Nextel shit talked him (if I remember correctly). HovZ was a disrespectful punk / criminal imo. Honestly, who the hell does that? Hopefully he has grown up and isn't such a "thug".

Some one needs to find him and interview him to see what he's been up to, and tell him how much he's loved by our community! Do you think Incontrol or Idra would possibly be able to do the interview if we can set it up?

I would have said the same thing if they were both asian or latin american or anything else. It's just another thing in a long list of similarities between Hovz and Combat-EX.

Not defending HovZ because I have no idea how he acted himself, but I would applaud such an action. The internet shouldn't give a free pass to talk shit, it's not like you'd talk shit to a stranger on the subway and not expect to get punched for it.

You're applauding him punching someone over a little smack talk? Really?

I think our racial slurs mean something different from Sweden's use of the words.
