He also posted on TL a slew of balance whine in various threads. It always made me laugh, because he was the guy who would turtle behind 50 spine crawlers, make 40 infestors and 30 Broodlords. I remember a few of his games during EGMC, he was actually the only player that if I ever saw playing a game, I would turn off the stream because I knew how boring that game would be, and how painful it would be to watch. | ||

He was also a ZERG that had no flexibility in his play and the worst mechanics I've seen since the beta. Most of his interviews he came off as a complete dick, and did he ever stream? He was BM and the biggest balance whiner in most ladder games I've seen streamed by other players. Now he is whining about not having a salary, while many many many more qualified players are only getting travel/lodging. He was the British version of lastshadow.

Best of luck to him, but imo there are more naturally talented RTS players out there in the UK that have got nowhere near a pro team, maybe Dignitas should look to tap that market a bit, unearth some gems. As a British guy, I think my worst ever SC2 memory was seeing him pulling his entire army back to deal with one medivac drops over and over again, especially vs Major. | ||

He also seemed to have problems adopting to hots so I am not very surprised by Dignitas not wanting to invest heavily in him. Sad for him tho. I haven't followed him at all since TSL (I don't follow foreign events in general), so that would make sense if his shape is dropping. But it really seems like Dignitas is not wanting to invest heavily in SC2 has just as much to do with it as anything. | ||

So basically, if every a team doesn't keep every single player then it's clearly about the team dying or SC2 dying. Wonderful logic. | ||

You really had to fit that in there didn't you? | ||

Winning the next iSeries won't boost his chances of a big team either, every event is pretty much the people who turned up for UK WCS - It's a bit like playing Semi-pro Football and hoping you'll be signed by Manchester United. | ||

He never had any results, more arrogant, and actually had the nerve to leave in the middle of Lone Star Clash 2. At least JonnyRecco had SOME results, which is much better than NONE. Lastshadow fans were completely delusional, while I haven't encountered any JonnyRecco fans surely they aren't that bad. | ||
