We are happy to announce a showmatch between desRow and Vera Lynn. With desRow being a pretty well-known player and Vera being quite the unknown player this ought to be an interesting showmatch. All of us have seen the lengths that some PvZ games go to and this might be another match to add to the epic PvZ list!

[image loading]
About desRow:
desRow's played Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos and became a competitive player in that scene. Despite achieving a decent skill level at the game, especially during the Frozen Throne era, he had no notable competitive achievements for that game. desRow shortly entered the StarCraft 2 scene and plays protoss. He moved to Korea to improve his gameplay in 2012 but soon returned due to personal circumstances. Since his return, he has participated in the Spring and Summer MLG events along with running his own showmatch series. He is an active streamer and streams almost daily.


About Vera:
Vera is an Irish Zerg player on both NA and EU. She has been Grandmaster on NA since since season 7, placing 48th at close of season. As of this season she is one of the few female players who is GM on EU being consistently in the top 100. Vera is quite an unknown player who is trying to turn pro and compete in more tournaments. Aside from high-level StarCraft II-play, she regularly gives free coaching on her stream to viewers and casts a number of tournaments.

Could we get a short post-game interview with both players after the show match. Listening to both Vera and Desrow talk about the game is always informative and entertaining.

Go Vera!

I love both players but I'm siding on Vera on this one can't wait to see how she handles Desrow's late game Warp prism play.

Vera Fighting!

Desrow is a brave man. There is quite a bit more than 75$ on the line for this guy.
