Trevor ‘TorcH‘ Housten qualified to the Round of 64 in GSL1, but failed to qualify for GSL 3 after he lost in the semifinals of his bracket. However, as a foreigner he still managed to achieve Code A designation in GomTV and now has been recruited by Korean Pro Team Startale. Startale boasts top Koreans such as JulyZerg and HopeTorture, and is part of the new union of Korean pro teams.
TorcH still intends to be active in the VT Gaming community, though the details of his representation is still to be determined.
We congratulate TorcH on his great achievement!

Hey everyone,
First, thank you all for the support it really means a lot. In response to the criticisms, I agree with all of them on some level and will address them specificly as soon as I can.
As for what is actually going on; I don't really know either. Everything is happening very quickly (including other events that I can't talk about publicly yet) and the language barrier makes it difficult for me to even know what the state of everything is.
What I can say is I am living/training in the Startale house for the rest of my stay this trip to Korea and will be returning to KR very soon (December or January). As for whether I am an actual member of Startale or just a practice partner, the only thing I know definitively is that they had me change my ID to http://kr.battle.net/sc2/ko/profile/1971260/1/스타테일토치/ (StartaleTorcH in Hangul).
