Today we're proud to announce the two new members of the ROOT Gaming family!

These two guys showed today during their showmatch how incredibly talented and how much potential they have, showing some of the best and most exciting matches I've personally seen in ZvP. We at ROOT will work hard with them, despite of them both being top NA grandmasters, I believe in their potential and they are both very dedicated to becoming the best players that they can be.

These two are amazing people, really friendly and will be the perfect fit for our team, on top of that they are two of the most active players in NA today and both come from a background of almost null RTS experience, both RELATIVELY new to the scene and having not played the game competitively for a long time, have shown impressive gamesense and incredibly fast improvement throughout a short period of time, I am super excited of what will become of them in their near future with ROOT. Welcome Brendon (puCK) and Connor (Fitzyhere) to your new home! - CatZ

Here's what they had to say about joining:

puCK:
Hello everyone,
I am extremely excited to be able to play for ROOT. The dedication I have put into this game is finally starting to pay off as I will be given a team where I will have plenty of support and practice, I can really expect my pvz to improve significantly. The support I have been given through my fans has really helped me to get where I am today, because without them I would just be some random kid bad mannering every single player I came acrost does this sound okay?

Fitzy:
I am really excited to have the opportunity to join ROOT gaming. Although it is sad to part ways with team Habitat, and all of its players, I am sure ROOT will
be a great replacement. I have always been a fan of the members of ROOT, such as Destiny with his infestors and CatZ with his cool builds! I hope to get to know the rest of the team
a little better through lots of practice. I Think that joining ROOT will help me take my game to the next level. With all the zergs around, I can
improve my zvz, which is the hardest matchup in my opion, since CLEARLY zerg is OP. Im honored to be apart of ROOT, and amongst players that will
support me and help me improve. I would also like to thank all of my viewers who support me every day

_______________________________________________________________________
thank you again to everyone who supports our team, and please continue to do so, we'll be working hard to not let you down

I'm so glad for Fitzyhere. I've been watching is stream for a long time and he's definitely one of my favorite zerg players out there, and he's joining my favourite team :D
Maybe he will finally have his stream featured, that would be great.
ROOT fighting!

Got to say that metropolis game was epic and that is something I learned a whole lot from like that nydus pushing and attacking at 2 fronts and all that was sick. People really should take notes from some of what fitzy is doing because its stuff that can win tournaments.

YEAH Fitzy! He's such a cool guy, I'm glad he's on a notable team now.

Also loved his interview XD "ZvZ is my hardest matchup because clearly Zerg is OP"

EDIT: Apparently I became a Guardian and I didn't even notice...what post count did I need to become one?
Done with Team Liquid for a while. Don't expect to find me here.
