Good Morning All and Happy Friday,

We have had such an amazing amount of news come through the community in the past week and a half - we figured why not add some of our own.

As such, I am pleased to announce VPGamers has signed former Lazarus Gaming players/members in the form of PainUser and HDstarcraft. We are proud to have these two gentlemen representing our team and look for great things from them. Both players are committed and look forward to showing their abilities to the SC2 community.

Please look for our team to make their debut at MLG Anaheim with 10 players playing and hoping to do some damage

Just to provide an update to our current roster since the inception of the team:

Wow, this is pretty big for VP. Congrats to HD and PainUser. Don't see how HD is on the A team roster.. Unless if he's somehow stepped up his 1v1 game o.O

I am confused why you guys would sign them, considering they work so they don't have time to play. Seems like a gigantic waste of money, their are better ways to get your team more popular.
if you can believe you can concieve

I'll be honest, when I first saw VP come on to the scene a few months ago I thought to myself "lol who are these newbs... I don't recognize any of these players"

Boy was I wrong.

You guys have many strong and underrated players. Congrats to PainUser and HD, GL to the team!

EDIT: I'll be honest again, for those of you saying HD isn't good, PainUser in his current state wouldn't be on their A team either. Of course that can change if he actually practices, but like some one else mentioned, those 2 can easily be a benefit to their team in many other ways...

They are both looking to become more and more competitive and also maintaining their current roles in the community - we wish them the best. They have amazing potential and PainUser has already shown what he can do when he truly sits down to practice. Hopefully it can continue!

What? HDstarcraft is considered a player?

Nice for Painuser tho, but I don't know if he can train a lot with his job.
