ROOT Gaming is getting that warm fuzzy tingling feeling inside again. Do you feel it too? It feels like anticipation. It's like the butterflies you get just before another big ROOT announcement -- but bigger. What could it be? A cool video? A sponsor? A new game added? Another new member?

You may recognize some big interviews or you may remember a Gladiator World of Warcraft Paladin. You may recall some speed leveling records, vaguely. You may remember server first after server first. You may have a foggy recollection of a video where a mystery man overcame four insane AIs. You may remember the fall of Titans or the death rattle of demons. You may recall a man, a name, tied to all of these feats and more. You may remember that he raised over a million dollars for charity in the name of gaming.

You may know him as the greatest gamer in the world.

We know him as friend.

Welcome, ROOTAthene!

Watch the video and check out the original post at http://www.root-gaming.com/blog/welcome/

I think Athene is there to help with promotions and PR.
The world is burning and you rather be on this terrible website discussing video games and your shallow feelings

Who is Athene?
If you are not supporting K-Pop you are hurting E-Sports.

It would be interesting to see what Athene could accomplish as an SC2 player lol.

Mainly because he used to post funny videos on youtube, using borderline pornographic pictures of his very attractive girlfriend as the thumbnails in all of them. Pretty genius if you ask me.

I don't really see what they are trying to do here but cool I guess?
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
