Team Gravity's Fight Night #9 - $100 Showmatch

[Grav]SpaceMarine
“Suaybe “SpaceMarine” Köse is a talented 20 year old Protoss player from Denmark. He is finishing college soon, and plans to play Starcraft 2 full time in order to go pro. SpaceMarine has a higher APM than most of his fellow Protoss players which allows him to play a style where he can attack in multiple locations, and harass his opponents to death. He often plays very safe and doesn’t usually take a risk unless it’s a calculated one. He prefers to take the game into the later stages where he feels his macro and micro are very strong.

SpaceMarine has recently won the Ignition LAN (Danish) and made it to the RO8 in Copenhagen Games, where he lost to Hyun 1-3.

[Empire]Kas
"Mihaylo "Kas" Hayda's RTS career began with WarCraft 3. He only started playing it at a late stage (2007-2010) but soon became a strong player before the release of Starcraft 2 and winning 3 ZOTAC cups. Being a Human player in WarCraft, he picked Terran for Starcraft 2. After numerous cup victories, he was the first player, aside from the seeded ones, to qualify for the TSL3 through winning the TL Open #8.

Kas has a very conservative play style developed through practice on ladder. Due to the nature of ladder and playing large numbers of players that he might be unfamiliar with, Kas has developed a safe style to survive, which lends greatly to his Big-Bracket success in best of one series."




[Grav]Trace
“Adam “Trace” Kasparoff is a GM Protoss player from California. He was introduced to Starcraft 2 by a friend in high school. He tried playing the game on his friend’s account, and has been hooked ever since. So far Trace has achieved top 50 GM on the NA ladder, and is looking to continue improving to become a formidable North American opponent.

In his spare time he is a college student, and practices playing the violin.”




[NDGame]Cham
“Cham is a 16 year old Zerg player, and one of the best Starcraft 2 players in Latin America. For being so young, Cham has accomplished a lot, including placing highly in international tournaments. His gaming career started in console games, playing for fun. When he saw Starcraft 2 and the strength of E-Sports, it became his passion.

Starting in bronze league like all newbies, Cham played 8 hours a day without stopping in order to improve his game. He reviewed professional replays and experimented with his own style of play until he felt strong enough to compete in small tournaments – actually going on to win a few of them.

To date, Cham has participated in tournaments as prestigious WCS and MLG, losing in the latter only against Naniwa and Grubby in very close games.”




[Grav]Raynor
“Hyun Woo "Raynor" Park is a 20 year old GM Terran from South Korea. He became interested in Starcraft 2 after watching the WWI (World Wide Invitational) in 2007, and started playing it immediately during the WoL Beta. When Raynor first started playing, he was only a Platinum player, but he played two hours every day and was able to reach Masters when he was 19 years old.

Having just completed high school, Raynor is taking time off before going to college to try to become a professional Starcraft 2 player. Raynor says he feels he has a lot of work to do to become pro, but will try to practice as hard as he can. He also streams on a regular basis, and asks that people tune in and cheer him on! He listens to K-Pop and electronic music, and does English commentary for viewers! You can find his stream at www.twitch.tv/pr8329.”




[KLG]wiNgiAN
"Giancarlo "wiNgiAN" Crosa is a Chilean GM Protoss, playing for Kaos Latin Gamers. He has been playing Starcraft 2 since the WoL Beta, and is considered to be one of the best Protoss players in Latin America.

wiNgiAN says that some of his goals as a player are to win Copa America 2014, and increase the popularity of our both his team and himself in other regions.

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 at www.twitter.com/mdeluca. Most of his Starcraft 2 content is hosted at www.twitch.tv/tampaesports and www.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 Team Gravity and want to help increase its success." - Rob "Shadow" DeLuca - Tampa eSports Starcraft 2 Director & Coach
