We are ready to announce that from today our team changes the way of business and sign the player of world class - Abdulaziz "(Wiki)CrunCher" Abed, from now he is a player of (Wiki)incredible Panic team. Not long ago he was a player of team (Wiki)compLexity, and then he was inactive for a while.
A few days ago he returned to Starcraft 2 and started intensively train on NA and EU ladder.
The next tourney for CrunCher will be NASL Season 3, he got an invite and will represent our team. Also he will make our line-up stronger on different team leagues, also Incredible Panic League Season 4.
The best achievements of CrunCher are: first place on TSL3 qualifier, where he defeated Beastyqt, Ciara, KiWiKaKi and Fenix in the finals. He won against Idra in play offs 2:1 and then Mondragon 3:1. Finally he lost to NaNiwa 2:3. He took 5-8 place.

CrunCher was successful in both NASL seasons and won against a lot of strong players. He was also successful in a few MLGs. Placing top 20 twice from the open bracket.

Before Starcraft 2, Abdulaziz played Warcraft 3. He was a human player, and attended a few Blizzard Regionals, and ended up attending Blizzcon 2010. He also attended WCG USA, and ended up getting second place.

Comment of CrunCher:

It's been a while since I have played for a team, so I am excited to be joining iP. I have played against some of their Warcraft 3 members years ago, and know they are a strong organization. I plan on helping them continue that into Starcraft 2. I hope everyone can support us, and enjoy what we have to offer!


Comment of iP.Fast:

We were looking for some very skilled foreign players in our team. If you remember in Warcraft 3 we allways had some skilled forein players. Cruncher - is a nice opportunity for us, i' happy that Cruncher with us now.


Comment of iP.Gl1de:

As a head manager of iP.sc2, i'm happy that we gonna have a player like CrunCher in roster. Its a great prospect for us and a great choice for CrunCher. We gonna do everything we can do for CrunCher to progress fast and we rely on him.


New iP line up:

Abdulaziz 'CrunCher' Abed
Mikhail 'IntoXi' Budnichenko
Andrei 'kinder' Yermakov
Nikolai 'Manning' Leontiev
Ilya 'my-love' Shivrin
Dmitriy 'RZP' Klopov
Alexander 'Unix' Solyakov
Vladimir 'MefiSTo' Chernikov

Arrrh.. Incredible Panic as a team name? That would be hard to pull off even in Korea T.T

Gratz though on your comeback Cruncher, I wish you all the best
