http://www.root-gaming.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12156

ROOT has always been a name to pick up the potential talent out there that no one would ever expect. Spending most of his time on HotS Succeed "is the 7th highest ranked foreigner on the HotS ladder." It shouldn't be long before Succeed is tearing up all the tournaments.

You can watch his stream at www.twitch.tv/rootsucceed

He has even got a brand new twitter you can follow: https://twitter.com/rootsucceed

If you just want to learn his play-style download the 10 replays released today: www.root-gaming.com/replays.php

Otherwise, you can ROOT for him tomorrow as he plays in a lan over in Lima, Peru with White-Ra, ROOTCatZ, LGIMFenix, and other top peruvian players. (Check out www.twitter.com/root4root for more information concerning this)

ROOT loves to pick up these up-and-coming pros, but none of this would be possible without great sponsors like www.daskeyboard.com www.avermedia.com and www.twitch.tv !!!

Keep on Succeeding, and ROOT4ROOT!
Do your thing. No matter what.

Hmmm, after picking up some relatively known players, this is a cool pick up. Looking forward to seeing Succeed in the future!

I was gonna ask if he's changing his name to Success after winning something big. He looks quite marketable in the ROOT site pics. I wonder why I haven't heard of him before now. Another Scarlett type of success story (can't think of a non-pun ^_^) ?

ROOT pickups are always the best pickups.
For everyone else, it's always "Oh, nice to see that (insert Korean here) found a new team."
With ROOT, it's "Oh, so that's the best player I've never heard of." Then, a few months later, said pickup is now "the most talented player everyone's heard of".
"How are you?" "I am fine, because it is not normal to scream in pain."

I'm starting to worry about Root. Where are they getting all the money to support 12 players? that seems really overkill. Are some players paid while others don't get a salary?

If only 3 sponsors are making this all a reality, then big props to the sponsors.

Played this guy a couple of times in hots ladder, hes indeed insanely good. Im wondering what his handle was in WoL, was it Succeed or something slightly more familiar? Hard to imagine that someone that good could be completely unknown in WoL.

Exciting news and by the looks of things an exciting prospect for sure, CatZ has an uncanny ability to find talent.

Good luck to ROOT and mad props/respect to this guy for the commitment he has already shown. Hopefully that same attitude can take him far

I consider myself have pretty good knowledge about the Swedish scene but I've never seen him in small tourneys like e-sport SM where he could go really far and maybe win it.

Well, good luck to the guy! I look forward to see another Swede rise! :D

I'm from Sweden and I've never heard of him.

However, I'm really happy about this move from Root, I think more teams should have the balls to support lesser known players. I wish both Root and Succeed the best of luck.

What sucks for Root is that even if they do manage to develop great players, bigger organizations are going to try and snipe them anyways and probably going to suceed

You may note from history that even when ROOT players go elsewhere, they always end up back with ROOT, so does it really matter if they have a short stint elsewhere?

I don't really expect him to have much "success" though.
You can't just simply delevop into a successful SC2 pro by hard work. It requires a lot of talent as well. Almost all current full-time pros were succesful as part-time players already.

Contrary to guys like carn, Desrow, Lastshadow who could not force their success.

I always feel a little bad for ROOT / CatZ when I see player pickups; either the player fades away and never amounts to much, or the player starts tearing up the scene and runs away from ROOT like there is no tomorrow.

Hope that isn't the case, just stay on ROOT for a while after you go big

You can't just simply delevop into a successful SC2 pro by hard work. It requires a lot of talent as well. Almost all current full-time pros were succesful as part-time players already.

Contrary to guys like carn, Desrow, Lastshadow who could not force their success.

Desrow's absolutely correct, 10 years of Korean dominance pretty much confirms that talent is achieved only through hard work and constant grinding and not anything "natural".

Yes, but it's extremely hard to catch up with people who have been putting in the constant work and grinding for much longer than you.

T.T One new player only? And we're going to ROOT for him to Succeed? Man I got a bad ViBE about this.
+ Show Spoiler +
Yeah yeah yeah I fell for it it too, even liquipedia'd the team. STOP USING FAYTH he no plays no more no no

Also I don't think Succeed moving to Peru is the best of ideas.
Team Liquid needs more Terrans.

Did he have a different id for wings of liberty? Weird to see a completely unknown player top the ladder. That being said, I hope he does well in Peru and continues to improve.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

Didn't it say he was masters on KR servers WoL? I would think you can go about pretty unnoticed in that mix.

I always feel a little bad for ROOT / CatZ when I see player pickups; either the player fades away and never amounts to much, or the player starts tearing up the scene and runs away from ROOT like there is no tomorrow.

Hope that isn't the case, just stay on ROOT for a while after you go big


Examples of Both please, i'd very much appreciate that!
