Yea, they really could use some more strong zerg and toss. Terran line up is really solid.

Liquid`VINES would be awesome! I think he could really show his potential under Liquid, just like HerO and Taeja.

VINES.Light QuanticVINES sounds plausible but I think

FnaticRC VINES sounds just right. They're going to need him for the Team League anyways if they make it through.

Not bad. He made 4th place in WCS Russia.

I honestly forgot that Vines was in Empire. They did like nothing with him, if not actually nothing. Kind of unforunate because he's a pretty talented player. I learned how to FFE from watching him stream back then.

apparently his name was intended to be finesse, but there was an error or misunderstanding. That sort of explains the interesting pronunciation of his name in the open GSL seasons.

He did very well for Empire in team leagues, but it seems like he didn't get many (if any at all?) opportunities at individual competitions. Hopefully he finds a new home where he can strut his stuff more.

They pick up VINES, did nothing with him, then drop him. I hope Empire picks up someone more reputably certain and takes more advantage of their players and their ability to play! They treat their players well, just wish they exposed them more.


My thoughts exactly. The only time I ever heard about VINES during his time with Empire was when he signed and again today.

Best of luck to Venus! Hope he gets picked up by a new team soon!

Hopefully Empire gets a few more Terrans for its line-up... man they really don't have enough, but they have plenty of Zergs and Protosses...
