Cool news, Grubby is far and away my favorite toss player to watch even if he's not on top yet; the way he thinks about the game is unique and interesting to spectate, much like TLO.

this will be great once he gets a lot better. He will be one of the top players I am sure.

Wonder if and when he will start getting new members?

I'm really happy for Grubby, I wasn't really a fan of his until I watched that documentary about him. I don't know the link... But, after watching that, he really seems like a very down to earth, very nice guy. I wish him all the best.

This is probably the one you're looking for.

There's also an older documentary about Sky and Grubby.

Grubby makes his team ?

Great, whenever you'll see the team's name on a replay, you can skip it entirely since you'll already know it will involve a 30 minutes 2 base camping match and a coin-flip 1a mass superunits battle.

MC said, no matter how good a ex-WC3 player used to be, they still can't beat him in SC2.

Well, let's hope he will recruit other players to his team, because as Korea shows, nothing beats practicing in a team house.

To all the naysayers: do you even realize how successful this guy is? WC3 accomplishments vs BW accomplishments, he crushes almost everything in terms of wins, money won, etc.

Awesome to have my favourite game and my (old) favourite player joining forces!

Now, if he only played zerg... though I suppose zealots are closer to grunts - can't wait to see some INSANE micro :D

Moon has better achievements but hasn't been anything special. I only see hype. People have even said that his performance in MLG was great. The first player that mattered beat him easily. There have been people who have done much better with two and a half months of practise. Now, what will become of him remains to be seen. Can he become something great? Sure. But his performance so far hasn't been anything impressive*.

* Of course it is very impressive in the sense that 99.9% of people could not pull that off. But I would expect not much less from anyone who has been a top player in a similar game.
