2013 WCS Europe

WCS America Season 1 Challenger League



Brackets and standings on Liquipedia

Get to know your WCS players

Interviews by monk

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the WCS America Challenger League! This tournament's forty contestants will compete for a variety of fabulous prizes, ranging from $100 to qualification in next season's Premier League! Now, let's meet our contestants!

In this on-going series, we'll try to have some short, light-hearted Q&A's with players you might not know much about otherwise. To start off, we introduce Xenocider and Neeb!

Xenocider

Please introduce yourself: Hello, I’m us (T)Xenocider, a 15 year old Chinese-American (born in USA). I have been playing computer games since the age of 10 starting with DotA which I started because I saw my brother playing at home. After SC2 came out I switched over and started to play Terran (also because my brother played T).

[image loading]
We assume he's the guy on the right.
Origin of ID: When I first started playing Starcraft I didn't have an account so I got one from my friend who portrait farmed a lot so he had like over 6-7k+ wins for every race. He would later give me this account and I renamed it to Ace (which was going to be my ID). That account would subsequently get banned* and my other friend gave me his account which was named Xenocider. It didn't have a name change so I have stuck with it for the past 2 years. I believe it's from Ender's Game and it means Alien Killer.

*Note: When Blizzard bans an account for Portrait farming, it's only banned for 2 weeks and the portraits aren't removed.

Describe your style in 25 words or fewer: Only cheese 8D

Most notable accomplishment/Proudest moment in SC2: I haven't done anything in SC2. In fact if somebody told me to describe how my SC2 career has been thus far, I'd probably say trash. Fortunately, I'm a motivated guy so I will work hard to accomplish things in the future.

Biggest strengths and weaknesses as a player? My biggest strength is being an alphamale and thus being able to assert my dominance on the playing field, often times leading to my opponent being unsure about his strategy (expanding/attacking/etc). My biggest weakness is probably my free throws; I really need to get back to the line and get up to at least 80%

What SC2 unit represents you best? Probably the marine or the hellbat, stim to win

One thing you would change about StarCraft II. I'd probably give hellbats blink since they lack the ability to win the game immediately.

Form a team with any other 5 players, not including those currently on your team: DeMusliM, Artosis, me, Grubby, and Tasteless. We could all wear nice suits to every event and brand ourselves as The Business Club or something.
Source: http://studcraft2.appspot.com/players

Prospects on first match against (T)MajOr: I'm not afraid but he plays mech and there's no one on NA that does that besides MaSa so we'll have to see. I believe if they go into macro games I will win 2-0

Winners of Season 1 of NA, EU, KR?
HerO WCS NA assuming he doesn't choke massively
LucifroN WCS EU assuming he doesn't choke massively
InnovatioN KR for sure Gods don't choke

Favorite player? Probably DeMusliM, he's very handsome and makes me question my sexuality

Favorite food: rice & nerd tears

Flash or Jaedong? i dunno they're both pretty unattractive, coin flip i guess

Cats or dogs? well in china we eat cats so I guess....

Coke or pepsi? ew

Soap or body wash? i don't believe in showers

Bonus Question 1: Can you tell me what these are?
+ Show Spoiler +
mousepads?
o ROFL
floppydisks
LOL
LOL
RIGHT?
WTF are those
dunno those are from the 1800's

i can see pictures of dinosaurs with those around their necks


Bonus Question 2:What do the little square pieces at the bottom left of these VHS tapes do?
+ Show Spoiler +
i dont even know what this wtf
is a vhs


FXO.Neeb

Introduce yourself: Hi, I'm a Terran player from the us USA (New York to be specific ^^). I'm currently 15 years old and I'm on FXO's NA division. I'm a really competitive person, and have been a huge gamer my entire life, so I naturally play quite a bit. Before I got into Starcraft, I loved runescape (private servers are awesome) and played some League of Legends.

[image loading]
Artist's interpretation.
Origin of ID: Damn it, is that the next question? I got my current ID (Neeb) a while ago, when I was maybe 11 years old. My brother used to be a gamer like me, and my cousin played a lot too (but hes 4 years older than both of us haha). We did hang out a lot though. One time we were on Halo just betraying our teammates because we were cool like that and we called each other names when we would kill one another. Since we played lots of video games, we called each other names like noob, choob, scrub. Over time we came up with more silly names and I really liked the name Neeb that I came up with. I used that from then on, but changed it to N33bl3t eventually cause numbers in your name make you really cool (not really ). SC2 can't have numbers so I just called myself Neeb again.

Describe your style in 25 words or fewer: I try to be very aggressive, while not being dumb with it. I like to plan out my strategy and see it work well.

Most notable accomplishment/Proudest moment in SC2: I haven't competed and done too much in SC2 yet. I guess managing to qualify for shoutcraft america is my biggest accomplishment (along with qualifying for challenger league). The few days leading up to the end of the season was very tense and I got nervous even when I just queued for ladder games. I was relieved making it into Shoutcraft, especially because I saw all my ladder grinding pay off.

Biggest strengths and weaknesses as a player? I would say my biggest strength is motivation. I genuinely enjoy this game, playing it and watching it. I actually watched pro SC2 for half a year before even starting to play 1v1, and I still tune into big tournaments and player streams. All this tournament viewing really inspired me to try to compete and do well. For my weaknesses, I think I care about this game a lot which makes me get angry with myself when I lose or just play a sloppy game. I also used to have ladder anxiety and so I do occasionally have a hard time getting myself to play.

What SC2 unit represents you best? I think it would be the battlecruiser. They are very in-your-face kind of units and are intimidating just looking at them. Thats what kind of player I try to be.

One thing you would change about StarCraft II. I like the game overall with how games play out and how the races work. I would probably just modify hellbats a bit for balance reasons. I think the issue with them currently is that they survive forever when they are being healed by medivacs, and they do significantly better vs lings than vs anything else. I'd increase hellbat base health so they become stronger without medivacs, but decrease damage a lot, so they don't hard counter lings but fail against everything else. Also it's silly seeing 4 hellbats kill a spine crawler in a few seconds.

Form a team with any other 5 players, not including those currently on your team: ForGG, ByuN, DeMusliM, Mvp, and Kas because they are all awesome people and Terran players ^^.

Prospects on first match against (P)HuK: Recently I have been struggling a lot in TvP. I'm trying to play more late game focused, and I'm definitely not so great at it yet. Most NA tosses are cheesy, so I got good at holding off allins/gimmicks and winning in the midgame, but that doesn't work against everyone. I also have no idea how well HuK has been doing recently, so I don't know how the match is going to play out.

Winners of Season 1 of AM, EU, KR?
KR - INoVation, because I like his playstyle. EU - ForGG, because I've been a fan of his stream for a while. AM - Suppy, because I BELIEVE

Favorite player: I like ByuN the most because I learn so much by watching his stream, (hes the one that motivated me to play macro oriented tvp) and he is really funny ^^.

Favorite food: I don't have any specific favorite food, I just eat whatever.

Flash or Jaedong? Flash because he's a Terran bro

Cats or dogs? I own two dogs, so obviously dogs are my favorite. I love puppies!

Coke or pepsi? I don't drink soda

Soap or body wash? what kind of question is that

Bonus Question 1: Can you tell me what these are?
+ Show Spoiler +
i have no idea
im bad with technology


Bonus Question 2:What do the little square pieces at the bottom left of these VHS tapes do?
+ Show Spoiler +
how am i supposed to know?????????????

considering the players we have lined up, this is basically a "free PR for shoutcraft" interview series

If you remove it, you can't tape over it I believe.

I grew up with vhs and I don't know what those square pieces do TT

Xenocider is alpha as fuck. I also can't believe that nobody has thought of blink hellbats yet, I'm writing that to david kim.
