if this dude gets to LANs - he'll be on top. There is no other foreigner in SC2 who has a matching experience playing on stage and in high pressure of elimination games. You'll see.
This guy is a pure talant (and i love trance sets he listens to while playing!)

Grubby is awesome. I wasnt that into the wc3 scene but i still obviously knew who he was. He just seems like a nice guy and i like how he interacts with his fans.

Currently he is playing on an MLG map, is there any chance he'd be coming stateside to play in one? That'd make my day :D

I have probably watched over 1000 wc3 replays with grubby over the years, Grubby and Madfrog were my favorite players by far

There is just no contender to Grubby's stream as of late. Best of the best of the best.

His decision-making is top notch, I think. Even in games where his macro slips a bit he still ends up winning. I would be really interested to hear from former pro WC3 players as to what was the hardest skill to develop in SC2. As a former WC3 player myself, I have the most trouble adjusting to the economic aspects. I'm used to having only five workers on a gold mine. =(

Besides Nada and Boxer, Grubby is really the only person I've been a 'fan' of. I remember watching him way back in the day when orc was severely underpowered, playing versus nightelves defensively with headhunters and being the only orc doing well. I was so impressed. Hope to see you do well in SC2, you represent our country like no other. GL!

He's so manner, I can't believe how nice this guy is. He's definitively one of my favorite sc2 players. I've been watching his stream since he started and he's improved by sooo much since then. I can tell he's going to be one of the best really soon.

Sign me up! I am a huge fan as well! growing up with wc3 grubby was an idol for me and all of my friends. Also I have loved his sc2 stream. Hes got the best music and is extremely well mannered. I watched one game where he got 6 pooled with drones all in and he lost and instead of ranting he typed "gg wp" and just casually went onto the next game. A wp to a 6 pool all in?!? can you ask for more?

Sign me up. Don't know wc3, but he`s just a really nice guy and he`s improving so fast. Already Top200 worldwide on sc2ranks! It`s time to make a good run at a big offline tournament (it seems he doesn't like to play for small pricepools online).

Lol @ the first pic. I first saw him on tv as a guest at the Dutch talk show, where it became evident he's a great guy.

As a terran-former-orc, making my production fit my economy perfectly was a nightmare.
