anyone know if listal (pad) still around ?


I saw him playing on NrG a few years ago, I think he went to an MLG.

The first thing I thought of when seeing this title is to see if Pad joined up :p
But I have no idea what he's doing now.

Anyway, it's great to see sMi back on the scene Hope you guys stay cool.



I think Pad is still on NrG as far as SC2 goes, or was last time I talked to him (right around the time HotS came out) so not sure if he's NrG still or even active.

Pad is in sMi. He hasn't been active this season but his ID is iampad.

Interesting the amount of management you have, not sure what the situation is for a gaming team, but it seems most are run on low budgets and having so many management and players seems like you might be wasting a bit of money?

Just a thought, good luck none the less, some nice NA players you have there i have heard of so they must be half decent, nice sized squad, so the best of luck

The starters listed there aren't the only players on the team and for the most part the management isn't taking any money for themselves.

If that's what you called us then sure... We've always kept our name open to individual interpretation. We used to have a thread, back in the BW days, where people would list their own version of what sMi meant. There were some pretty clever ones.

Gotta live the high life! lol As I said, we are pretty laid back, but serious when we need to be. We have fun, but make sure that we do what we need to do.

Nothing about the sponsorships/partners or salaries for players?

At the moment we'd like to keep most of that private, especially the salaries/deals. It would be inappropriate to discuss things like that here.

Even still, nothing about your partner/s? Apparently you're going off of partners and not sponsors right now right?

Shouldn't people know about who powers sMi before they can decide to support them or not?

Sure, people can like your players as individual gamers, and it's good to give credit to your staff, but why should people like your team? What if your partner decides to stop partnering with you or says "oops, my pocket ran out of cash"?

Ofc I hope your team is awesome, and I hope that SC2 can flourish and that a bunch of teams can rise to compete at the top level, but what's the point of supporting a team that won't even reveal who or how the team is being powered?



Our gear is from alienware and razer. This is all I can say. Our sponsor would like to be private. We agreed to these terms set out by the sponsor. The players and managers know the sponsor and the contracts further dismay any concerns any of us had!

Yup he is.
