Team Prophecy E-sports is a recently born organization that started in Italy in 2017. In a very short time Team Prophecy became one of the best Italian Teams within the HearthStone scene, winning local LAN parties and achieving great placements in the European Ladder.

After the successful opening of the Hearthstone division, (Wiki)Prophecy esport is proud and excited to open the new division of StarCraft II this September 2017, presenting a legend like Juan Carlos Tena Lopez – known by everyone as "(Wiki)SpeCial".

Juan doesn't need presentations, being recognized throughout the world for his style of play. Juan is currently ranked 5 in the WCS Circuit standings after a fantastic year of tournaments, winning up to now more than $100,000 in his career.

Right this weekend, SpeCial will be representing Team Prophecy E-sports at WCS Event in Montreal, trying to secure his spot for the upcoming WCS Global Playoffs.

We really want Italy to have its place along with the great names in the world, and Juan has been one of our first big market hits, that not only opens our StarCraft II division but it also represents our first step to enter the world’s esports scene.

"I'm very happy to join this organization. I am looking forward to representing them on WCS Montreal and future competitions. Please cheer for me" – SpeCial


We would also like to thank our sponsors: GIGABYTE, AORUS and Corsair.

This is just the beginning, we are going to present our full StarCraft II roster in few days, stay tuned for updates

The Italian flag is basically the Mexican flag, so I guess its fine .

Also, if I read this right, it seems they have a bigger SC2 roster in store for us? I wonder who it will be, maybe even a teamless Korean player finally finding something again? Hyped whatever happens!

I think they just took over the former italian TeS roster (who went to nXg some weeks ago, but that seems already undone...), so they have Reynor and all the other italian players in their roster (also Ryu who played in Copa America).
