He's been back for a while. His stream is one of the more educational and fun to watch. It's also pretty funny seeing him beat gms with 2011 builds... hehehe. Best of luck.

I have a question. Are Microgamerz a good team? They have a good line up, but it seems that they don't exist. Their player don't play any qualifier/online event, they don't play teamleague like SC2Improve or something like that. So? Where are they?


They do play in team leagues. They won http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Top_Dog_League_Season_3Top Dog Team League season 2/3
Won SC2CTL Season 2and are currently in Cascade team league season 6

The players have been getting bad luck when trying to qualify for wcs, ect.

Really been enjoying his stream lately. Very calm, educational, and almost relaxing to watch.

Hah, nice to see Spanishiwa back. I remember everyone was using his IceFisher build at one point.

I remember him as the herald of genius innovative Zerg play. Not quite sure if I would define him as the second coming of Nestea or if I would define Life as the secong coming of Spanishiwa. Nonetheless, a shame he never went for Code S.

Edit: Now that I think about it, you know what rhymes with Spanishiwa? That's right, bonjwa.

As far as I'm aware, this team has NO relation at all to the BW Microgamerz team. They basically just stole the name. Someone from the team can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though.

This is a new MgZ. Has nothing to do with the real deal from BW.

The original founder of this team was named CloudAVA who at the time changed his name to Ztak. HOTS MicroGamerZ was formed after a decision to split from ViViD Gaming which is where i came from. Soon after we had heard reports that our leader at the time CloudAVA was a map hacker and that is when the team started taking "bad hits" over social media and we decided it was best to vote him out which is when I took over the team MicroGamerZ. As far as i am concerned i have no ties to the BW team, nor do i claim to have any rights which is why i rebranded the tag to IVI from MgZ.

I was contacted by DetO later on (who at the time was livid) over email explaining the situation to me of BW MgZ, and by that time i had invested so much into the team itself that to rebrand and redo all of the work would cost a significant amount of money. I apologized to him and explained that i would be happy to change the team name, but would need his financial support to back track all of the paperwork, website, etc.

He understood the situation and wished me well with the team. If i had the email still i would post it here.

I would just like to make one thing clear i did not re-establish this team, i inherited it as i was controlling all of the financials and marketing at the time and its what felt best. I came in as a business man and friend of CloudAVA and later learned of the teams history.

I apologized to DetO, and i will apologize to all of you who knew BW MicroGamerZ.


A reasonable explanation for anyone who is still angry and searching for one. :D
