Excited to see Sen playing on his new team. Should be vry intersting to watch the Taiwanese play as they have had TeSL going for a few months now.
Go Zergking aka Sen!

|
|
one sen to rule them all.
|

Also watch out for Hui, HRU, Rush.

for those who seeks intro~
notable player(to me)
Sen - a man who does not need intro : D
XpecBai - Sen used to coach him when sen was a consultant of Xpec Ironman
Hui - took 3 games to help Xpec ironman capture the champ 4-3 over TtApollo,also beat July before
Dus - probably the top 1 or 2 protoss in TW scene
Slam - coach of semi-pro team Storm.same team with sen.Can he learn one thing or two?
HRU - HowAreYou,very very strong micro,
DS - ripping through TeSL last season with random.Very similar to TLO.You can expect more if he settle down : )
Nifi - last season's strongest protoss of TeSL
Ball - aka softball, recently joining NASL season 2,strong terran.Had an impressive game with Sen on 8/14 TeSL
|
Softball fighting! Hope he wins and gets to go to Blizzcon.
|
well i think if anyone other than Sen/softball win, im going to be kind of disappointed.
|
Probably will be Sen and Softball again.

It's the Olympic flag for Taiwan. Some China drama over using the real Taiwan flag
|
Always a pleasure to see Sen ripping people to pieces :D.
Curious to see what else Taiwan has to offer as well. Think the only other notable player I've seen if Softball
