Doing reconstruction of team, Vega Squadron is happy to announce another great pickup for our Starcraft 2 team, talented young zerg player, ex member of Core Gaming [image loading]http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/JonnyREcco . After his little adventure on NA, he is back to EU server and ready to roll. He was considered as "rising star" in British Starcraft 2, and joining Vega he will try to get on his old path again playing in online and offline tournaments, and trying to qualify for WCS EU next season. He already has some good strong performances lately in online cups.

Statements:

"I'm happy to be joining team Vega. I'm hoping that with them I can continue to improve myself and get better, while showing good results for the team. I would like to say thanks to team management for this opportunity, as well to team sponsors too!" - Paul "JonnyREcco" Whyte

"We have been following Paul for quite some time, since he has been our wish for some time now. Finally we decided to take a step towards signing him, and im sure it will pay off for us. He is great perspective player, great guy and personality and with our support, we hope his career will keep growing with us. Welcome Paul to Vega!" - Vanja "HighArT" Šimunec, team manager

Interesting pick-up. Vega's line-up is looking stronger and stronger. Looking forward to watching them play in ATC3 qualifier and other online team leagues as well. ;o

Vega looking strong now, hope by cutting out the BM players they are able to build a strong reputation. Recco is a fantastic player and really nice guy!

Basically yeah. Switched from Protoss to Terran for a short while, then retired. Which is a shame because he was really good.

Haven't heard much from him since the "patchzerg" days of old.
Good luck to him!

All I've heard from Vega are bad mannered guys who wish others to get cancer in ladder games. Definetly a step backwards for jonnyREcco. Sad for him

You make it sound like every player on their team wishes cancer on everyone. Sounds like you base your opinion of Vega on one guy who isn't there anymore.
