Team Gravity's Fight Night #10 - $100 Showmatch

[Grav]Blast
"Min Kyu “Blast" Lee is a 26 year old GM Zerg player from Korea. When he was a child, he always liked Brood War and dreamed of one day becoming a professional gamer. Unfortunately he was unable to achieve this goal, and ended up attending college. After finishing college one year ago, he decided it was time to try becoming a professional StarCraft player again. He practiced 14 hours a day for 5 months straight, and managed to achieve GM on the Korean server! Blast says he’s still not satisfied and wants to become the best.”




[EG]Xenocider
Libo “Xenocider” Chang is a Grandmaster Terran player playing for team Evil Geniuses. He first began playing Starcraft 2 in 2011, after playing casual DotA for several years. He participated in his first MLG in Orlando during October 2011 while still teamless. This experience led him to consider devoting himself to the game more fully and possibly pursue a professional career. In 2012, Xenocider became a member of 4Not and remained there, participating in various MLGs as a 4Not representative.

In terms of gameplay, Xenocider prefers a macro style and looks to players such as INnoVation and Flash when molding his strategies.




[Grav]Serendipity
“Johannes "Serendipity" Seifert enjoys playing SC2 competitively whenever he isn't working as a software engineer, or stunning vast numbers of spectators with his volleyball prowess. Hailing from Europe, he moved to California nearly a year ago and has meanwhile asserted himself as a Grandmaster in every region, striking fear in the hearts of many - a fear sometimes cloaked in rude remarks alluding to cars hitting him which has made him a very cautious pedestrian.”




[AlloyE]Cube
“Wolfgang “Cube” Schwarz is a 21 year old Protoss player hailing from the nation of Austria. He is a multiple time national champion in Austria and is considered by some to be the best player in the Austrian SC2 scene. Cube is a strong macro player but is never afraid to break out some cheesy builds against any opponent at any time. Cube says that bad micro is not something he is capable of understanding, simply because he’s never had it.“




[Grav]Trace
“Adam “Trace” Kasparoff is a Grand Master Protoss player from Los Angeles, California. At the age of 13 Trace won his first hot dog eating contest and has competed professionally ever since. Amongst friends, Adam is known as “The Tsunami Sausage Protoss”, his favorite unit is the Stalker, and he has a 7 month old kitten named “Blink”.




[KRN]Namshar
“Christoffer "Namshar" Kolmodin is a 21 year old Swedish Grand Master Zerg player who is currently playing full time for Karnage-eSports. Namshar says he has quite high hopes for himself and he wants to get good enough to perform in bigger tournaments in the future. Streaming is a big part of Namshar’s life right now – he’s streaming almost every day and he says doing so makes him practice more than he would otherwise because it’s more motivating. Namshar loves talking about and analyzing Starcraft 2, and would love to get into commentating and maybe producing some of his own content in the near future.

When he’s not playing Starcraft 2, he does a few different things just to relax and have fun. Namshar plays the piano, and has done so since he was little. He’ll often put together some cool chords and just freestyle. Namshar also play other games such as CS:GO, Hearthstone and previously DotA 2. When its warm outside, Namshar will do things like play Football or Basketball with his older and younger brother! Since May 5th he also finally began to exercise a lot more; he’ll go for jogs and do push-ups and sit-ups whenever he loses a Starcraft 2 game on stream. Namshar says he thinks it's important to stay in shape and be healthy if you want to perform to the best of your ability in a game like Starcraft that requires a lot of focus.”

Temp0
“Kwame "Temp0" Mensah is an American Zerg player who is known for his StarCraft II related music. Temp0 has made many parodies of song with lyrics pertaining to StarCraft or to gaming in general. He is a highly popular community personality as a result of his musical contributions. He is a regular attendee on ChanmanV's show Wednesday Night Sprites as well."



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 Team Gravity and want to help increase its success." - Rob "Shadow" DeLuca - Tampa eSports Starcraft 2 Director & Coach
