Who are you?
I'm "acceL" and have been a competitive gamer since 1998. I have traveled the U.S. for games such as Halo 2, StarCraft, and Counter-Strike. If you are familiar with the Halo 2 scene at all, I was teammates with PEPApostle, Detach, and LegendJRG. In StarCraft II I was on the top 200 NA ladder up until I quit. I have played against many of the best players in ladder and show matches and won, but mostly lost . Some examples of these are: dignitas.SeleCT, Day9, Tasteless, Artosis (before they moved to Korea), Axslav, Machine, Sheth, iNControL, IdrA, and the list goes on...
Currently, I am a professional poker player and avid LoL player. I started playing ranked the minute I dinged 30 and I tanked down to ~600 elo. Currently I am ~1400 elo and plan on being 2000+ soon.
Why are you doing this?
I haven't really seen anything like this done on fb which I find weird since everyone and their mom and grandma (literally) are on it. Since CBS partnered with Twitch.tv, MLG, and the NASL it made me realize how fast e-sports is growing and eventually led me to come up with this idea. When I first started competitive gaming there was only one player in North America that was the literal definition of a "professional gamer" and that was fatal1ty. If you don't know who he is, then you are a noob. I have 'wasted', so they say, vasts amounts of time on gaming (~12-16 hours per day was common). I have never really done anything for e-sports beside provided some epic games , so I decided I should do this. This is not for publicity or money, just a fun hobby.
What games will PESN be covering?
-League of Legends
-StarCraft II
-Dota II
-Others tbd
I am unsure if halo and/or call of duty will be added since the current state of affairs those games are in isn't good.
Thanks for your time,
acceL
CLIFFS FOR TLDR:
-looking for high tier dota player to cover the dota II competitive scene
-started by top tier player in many diff. games and genres
