Can some1 enlighten me about MaximusBlack's background?, I know he did a series called "When Cheese Fails" with a buddy of his whom I personally enjoy much more, too bad he's not as active as MB!

He's a full time streamer who proxy stargates at a high master level, is constantly trying to improve, doesn't take himself too seriously as a personality, might actually be Jack Black, and is a pretty cool guy overall. He also streams other games you can find on his YouTube channel, his IWTBTG/IWTBTB are incredibly entertaining because he's rather, er, animated during them.
His friend NovaWar also streams a lot, and is slowly establishing his own fanbase, which you can check out here if you want.
I love the both of them, full homo, and wish them all the best in everything they do.

Proxy sg at a high level? Is that meant to be a joke? Abusing how hard it is to deal with proxy oracles is hardly evidence of skill.. To me it sounds like he gave up trying to be actually good so he decided he wants to cheese his way to gm(expanding behind proxy oracle is still cheesy).

It was a joke man, MB goes through phases where he loves certain builds. There was a period there were he did Warp Prism/Sentry drops every second game for instance.

I'm a bit saddened that after all this time people are still have this whole "cheesy player=dishonorable combat/no skill" attitude.
