http://www.flipsidetactics.com/uncategorized/puck-silky-join-f3-family/

"it’s with great excitement that we announce to the Starcraft II community the addition of Brandon “puCK” Qual and Nick “Silky” McNeese to the Flipsid3 Tactics family! With high hopes and expectations, we confidently step into 2015


“Today is the start of something great here at F3. I believe I have designed our current line up to not only compete with the best North American teams, but continue to push each other to get better and better. With our addition of top NA talent like puCK and up and comers like Silky I can confidently say that we will be an organization you’ll be hearing lots from.”
-Mike “Cav” Bramley – SC2 Division Manager

“After being with IvD for over a year I am happy to try new things! I believe Flipsid3 will provide a lot of help for me in the coming year along with being a nice home. With their help I will be able to focus a lot more into starcraft and hope to put out some nice results!”
-Brandon “puCK” Qual

We aren’t done yet! We will be announcing more North American signings over the next week! Stay tuned to "

It's nice to see a new team, especially a established one in other games, get into Sc2, and into the NA scene no less. It'll be interesting to see who these others they say they're picking up are.

Points go to them for being like the only team. I forgot there was even another NA based team other than PSI storm. The only clans I'm aware of in GM atm are hacking ones. What a sad state.

They'd established a roster several months back. With these acquisitions, the roster now consists of:

(P)Bails
(T)ElhayM
(P)Siphonn
(P)puCK
(P)Shew
(Z)Silky
(Z)rebOrn
(P)SaroVati
FlatLine (wow, he doesn't have a TLPD?)
Nero (who I must confess I haven't heard of - he's apparenty a Terran from Mexico)

Do any of these guys even play anymore? Bails is clearly the best, but he never seems to stream anymore (thus no exposure + not sure if he plays). Flatline either doesn't play enough or isn't' even GM level anymore.. Anytime I played shew he was talking about how playing the game wasn't worth it/quiting. I saw SaroVati playing on a stream the other day and I was in shock, as I hadn't seen that named around in forever.

Who can even tell who's active anymore? There's so little opportunity for advancement or exposure in this region right now, all but the very best are left in anonymity. Hell, Deimos is quietly streaming friendly clan wars again, and nobody noticed.

I'm just saying, these are names you USED to see on ladder. But, I haven't played versus any of them in at least 4 months. I know bails is best suited playing Korean ladder, but the other guys... you would expect to play them/see them if they still played. If you played NA, you would literally think the team was solely Flatline and that it was a masters team...

That's TLPD's fault, not mine. I'll edit in a Terran logo for you, though. (Also, I ALMOST posted that you'd gone over to HS because I kept seeing your name around, but then I remembered you'd just kept in touch with Kitkatz after Clarity folded.)

I guess we will see who is active or not once WCS NA qualifiers come next week.

Also i guess F3 is going to sign another player soon:

Hey! Things have been pretty fluid with our roster.. Here is where we are right now

Bails
Elhaym
Sarovati
Puck
Nero
Silky
Flatline

Siphonn hasn't played for awhile and we didn't want to make a big show of it but he's inactive, as is reborn. They are both super focused on school so I would just consider them inactive.

Shew got a job at Twitch so we thought it would be best to formally cut ties to allow us to (potentially) talk with other streaming platforms about deals.

All three of those guys are still close with the team and still in our big f3 family chat!

I saw SaroVati playing on a stream the other day and I was in shock, as I hadn't seen that named around in forever.

I can't speak about all of them but Bails is awesome and still playing. ElhayM has actually been streaming and definitely plays a good bit(though he just started a new job very very recently so may be slightly less active). rebOrn tends to play on barcodes and on KR and SaroVati is playing more in prep for WCS as far as I'm aware. Flatline has a stream I see on fairly often and I see Nero's stream going sometimes as well(I think)?

Siphonn isn't playing as much lately and Shew works at Twitch now and has been pretty busy I think.

Overall, I think almost all of them are fairly active, though not always super visible when we're in the downtime period of SC2 where there's not as much to play in, or they tend to play on barcodes.

Anyways, super awesome pickups! Can't wait to see Flipsid3 in 2015!

Just because I have work and school doesn't mean I'm dead and gone ((( But yea for most any sc2 viewer, you'd know that the last few months of each year are usually considered the "off-season" due to only 1-2 major tournaments happening! We'll see how we do with the coming 2015 season
