EPTFluff: + Show Spoiler +
Some of you may have seen me before, i post on occasion in the SC2 strategy forums as well as on the official bnet forums (mostly in the protoss section)
I am a Master's Protoss player from the NA (Now AM?) server. It has always been my goal to stream games and interract with the community more ( I think im a likeable guy :D )
I used to attempt to stream earlier in the year but due to the restrictions posed by my old laptop I was never able to do so without dealing with a rediculous frame rate drop on my end , as im sure some of you have experienced playing at 15fps is not fun on ladder.....
But good news: Ive built a new stronger faster Desktop from scratch and now i can play on ultra and stream at the same time.

Important Stuff: As I stated in the "Fluff" section, I am a Masters protoss ( I would describe myself as "High" Masters but ive been in a little bit of a rut due to work, school work and building my new computer....
I'm usually in the top 8 of my division (When I'm active) so I can promise you that what you see on my stream will be relatively high quality (not quite pro level yet) game play, thought processes and decision making.
White-Ra being among my top 3 favorite protoss players to watch is someone I idolize in the SC2 world and therefore much of my playstyle and strategies will appear to be emulating his. While I am no White-Ra some of "Tactics" are pretty Fu$#in awesome when they play out in game the same way I in-vision them in my head.
I have a Mic, however I'm not used to talking while playing just yet so you'll have to bear with me as a mumble my thoughts about the game. The more I stream, the more i'll get used to talking and hopefully soon-enough i'll be able to commentate my own games a-la whitera and give you a good idea of whats going on in my head during the game.
Feel free to ask questions in-between games about why I did certain things if you are curious about my actions. I am more then happy to discuss strategy.
My streaming schedule during the weekdays will be restricted mostly to the evenings (For you EDT folk) since I work until 4pm... So my schedule would probably go as follows
Mon-Fri 5pm - 9pm (this is an estimated schedule, sometimes i will stream for longer or shorter depending on the state of my personal life...... lol......
Weekends are totally unscheduled, I'll be playing/streaming whenever whatever i feel like doing if any at all...
As for WHAT i'll be streaming.....
Mostly 1v1 Ladder games since that is what 95% of TL viewers are interested in seeing. On occasion If i have been streaming and see no reason to cease doing so you will see me practicing against my friends and teamates who are mostly all High-Master's terran and zerg players. (Some of them stream and you can probably find a link to them in my stream description)
I will also be streaming many of the On-Line tournaments I take the chance to participate in, (Z33k, TL Open, go4sc2, Craft Cup, Zotac etc......)
As for music,
Im sure my taste differes from many of you out there.... I am of hispanic decent and live in the NYC area so I listen to alot of Rap, Hip Hop and R&B, So for those of you who are fans of Jay-Z, Kanye-west, Joel Ortiz, Jay-electronica, J-cole, + Many others... you have found a home on my stream :D
I wont always play music, but when I do thats what its going to be....
Where can you find this wonderful stream that I've been talking about?

My only rule for those of you who like to partake in chat....
No excessive and personal trolling, Mild trolling is ok, but be sure not to take it too far, My many friends/Mods will swiftly counter troll you until you cry and then ban you from the chat.....
Thats about it, If i forgot anything I'll add it later... If you have any brief easy to answer questions feel free to contact me in-game

There is however still a lot of standard play that viewers can learn from. The music is good and not at all distracting like I find sometimes with other streams. Overall, I'd definitely recommend others check it out. :D
