Hello, my name is Eric Rothmuller and my ID for SC2 is GeeFive and my ID for SC:BW is G5. I am a Protoss player from the United States and I will be streaming a combination of SC2 and SC:BW.
For those who don't know me, I am originally from Starcraft: Broodwar and that is where I have most of my accomplishments. Some of my former accomplishments can be found here - http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/G5 My most recent was winning the 2010 World Cyber Games National Championship for SC:BW and representing USA on the world stage.
I will be streaming just about every day. I will be playing various tournaments in both SC:BW and SC2 as well as ladder games and practice games. I have been working a lot lately but I will be streaming when I can.
Update: I will be streaming mostly SC:BW.
Stream - http://www.ustream.tv/channel/starcraftg5
I hope you guys enjoy. - G5
Special thanks to Ryan "Haste" Hastings for helping me set up my SC2 stream.

Awesome! :D cant wait to see your stream!
|
Coincides with EG's new announcement...
Coincidence? I think not.
Awesome to see you streaming sc2, will be great to watch your progression.
|
|
|
Hmmm, the G5 Liquipedia link has a random period in it that is causing it to link to the wrong page. Might want to fix that ^^
Very excited to see you play!
|
G5! Good to see you back, sucks that you cant have numbers in your ID.
|
|
|
Awesome news G5  Will be looking forward to seeing some awesome results ^^
|
Oh shit, I'm psyched. When you get in form we should have a G5 v. Nony showmatch
:D
|
fuck the G6, we have motherfucking G5 back
|
Are you the guy dating EGmachine's sister ?
|
GL! I am sure you will succeed.
|
What was it that Idra said to you? He was playing a Protoss player who he apparently didn't recognize, and was run over. Before leaving he asked, "Do you hack, or are G5?" It always seemed like the ultimate compliment to me.

Ohh this makes sense! EG is signing you!
|
You should check out twitch tv! and no this has nothing to do with the fact i paid them so I wouldn't have ads so I can watch millions of hours of vods without interruption ...........
|
It's been a while. Good luck, sir.
|
Thanks guys. And no, EG isn't signing me. Although I am still friends with many of EG's members, I did my time with EG and doubt I will ever be an EGG...5 again... lol

I'm stoked you're finally gettin into sc2. It's been too long bro. GLHF!
|
cool, nice to see you back.
and i'm sure more people know about you than you think.
|
wow you finally made the switch.
Can't wait to watch you improve and see some epic idra vs. g5 rivalry matches again in the new game. Good luck have fun!
|
DUDE! Siiiiick. I'm calling it now, G5 takes WCG 2012. Monster toss. glglgl
|
G5 the monster toss, nice and gl
|
Cool to see you streaming. I watched a podcast that your gf was in and she said you would start playing again. I hope you find the motivation you need to keep playing. Don't burn yourself out.
|
saw your results in the recent tlopens and i knew you were back, excited to see you stream!
|
Wow thats great news eric !!!! Glad to see you here at sc2
|
Wow great news G5! It's been so long since we've all just been chillin' randomly in vent, glad to hear that you're finding SC2 more enjoyable and striving to achieve your potential with the new game. Really really great to see you back in action and I'd definitely recommend this stream to others, as I will try to catch it myself when I can.
|
The G5-induced IdrA rage in that game on destination (with spectators' commentary) was one of the most hilarious things I have ever witnessed. Glad to see you back, best of luck in your games!

Awwww np buddy 8) I look forward to watching you first person rather than over your shoulder haha. Viewers can expect to see extremely high level play, a refreshing game sense unaltered by previous stylistic trends, and an overall genuinely nice guy everyone can't help but be a fan of. Seeing you improvise builds on the fly and having great success against some high level GM's leaves me to wonder how great you will be with more refinement and practice. GL and GAMEFACE!

Sweeeet, I remember watching your games back in 2009 in Brood War. Awsome to see an old brood war foreigner come to Starcraft 2!
|
Please feature this stream!
|
Whoa haven't heard anything from G5 in awhile. Monster PvT back in BW!
Good luck dude.

I think its GeeFive, since you can't use numbers lol
|
OMG THAT WAS YOU i played on the ladder! i assumed it was just some smurfer!
|
nice stream pretty good play keep at it bro
|
hes streaming now although someone should tell him to switch to twitch.tv or own3d
|
wow thats nuts i was just wondering if you had made the transition to sc2 the other day and now i see this :D
|
Is this stream on the non-featured list on teamliquid?
|
"Hell, it's about damn time." Good to see you back. Remember seeing some of your games on oooold dailies and watching your WCG games. Look forward to seeing more games.
|
That is so great!
post replays also <3
|
|
|
He's streaming right now, sucks that since he's not featured it looks like no one noticed yet
|
G5 is back? FUCK YEAH!!!!
|
Siiick! G5 back in action, the more Media guys getting back in it the better!
|
the second i saw g5 on the stream list I jumped on that, i havnt heard for you in ages.
It's been too long
|
Wow awesome to have G5 back playing starcraft. I was always a fan of your style throughout broodwar. I still remember the PvP dominance over ClouD in the old TSL. I'll be tuning in~
|
G5 is the man. Even manlier with a Jamba Juice in his hand. (ie WCG USA Finals 2010)
|
Hooooooooooooo-leeeeeeeeeeeeee sheeeeeeeeeee-iiiiiiiiiiit. Didn't watch you much when you were at your prime, but all the praise I've read has me hyped-up for this Gonna go watch some games and see what the jazz was about now.
|
I know you're just starting SC2 but have you messaged Chill about getting featured? I would think you'd be featured on your broodwar pedigree alone. Either way it's only a matter of time before you're crushing face again. Good luck.
|
G5 in SCII O_O
hell yes.
and LOL dating Machine's sister, totally forgot about that XD
|
Is your goal just to get better or could we see tournament play soon?

I think he already entered a Playhem tournament
|
The only north american you could rely on to beat IdrA in his prime! G5 hwaiting~!
|
Saw your stream the other day and wondered if you were the "real" G5. Don't know if you are interested in putting the time required to be a truly top player or not but either way it's awesome that you are back.
I remember hitting you on iCCUP as you leveled up your TSL2 account up through the D/D+ ranks

The goal is always to get better. And yes, I will play w/e tournaments I can.

A lot of Ro16's and 1 or 2 Quarter finals. I just need to get more consistent and stop loosing to stupid shit like 4 gates, ling / baneling busts, and 1-1-1's.

|
Awww yeah I love G5.
Didn't you beat Boxer in that same event where White-Ra beat him on stage?
|
Weird... I played a "GeeFive" a few times on ladder and disposed of him quite easily. Would that be a fake?
|
Stream on right now
seriously why isn't he featured o.o;;
|
I love that you're streaming your playhem runs, your dedication to improving, in a tournament setting no less, is admirable.

Nony ??? lol
Also, I love watching G5 play. His fresh strategies were great in brood war and I hope he can put his own special flair in sc2.
|
wow Eric goot to see you back, I still proxy hatch in starcraft 2, so don't you go getting all mad at me 
|
Loved ur style in BW, glad to see u back to sc2 ^^ hope u do well sir!
|
I'm going to try to catch your next stream man, you seem to be damn cool.
|
G5 made GM this week, not bad for only playing hard the passed couple months.
|
G5, cool! Hope you get more viewers soon!
|
Any chance you will commentate your stuff? It would get you a lot more viewers.
|
Interested to hear your stories vs people in Media during the BW days xd
|
g5 is full of awesome bw stories. should have designated bw storytime, I'd tune in :D

|

Starting to stream again.

G5! What about protosss!? im a sad pandaa
|
Protoss in SC2 is too boring for me. Zerg is more fun / is more of a challenge for me.

How'd the tryout go? (If you don't mind me asking). Saw you while watching Ranged stream.
|
He is back and I hope he streams more and does anybody know how long was the break between him starting to play again for the first qualifier and retiring?

About 2 years
Probably won't be streaming much. I'd like to but I somehow messed up my set up and can't stream SC:BW at the moment.

: ( Well I hope that you at least practice for the main event some of the zergs that qualified are quiet scary!

Ohh and defiler cup is tomorrow you might want to test your opposition because the same people who qualified for TLS play there! Best of luck to you and your future performance in the TLS!
