Raymen Wu, Global Marketing Director of Cooler Master:
We are excited about the addition of a top player like Choi “Polt” Seong Hoon to the CM Storm team. Polt's performances and results speak for itself and we are confident that with his dedication and smooth transition to the US, he will place very well in different tournaments this year.
Through our quick and smooth negotiations, we have a very good feeling that this partnership will be something special. We are also looking forward to his help in tweaking our products through his usage and feedbacks so that we keep improving our gaming products.


Andrew Tomlinson, Founder and CEO of Cyber Sports Network:
When I first met Choi Seong Hoon, known as Polt, I was immediately impressed by his seriousness, dedication to Starcraft 2, and strong grasp of the English language. As our friendship grew over the past two years, I also came to appreciate the entirety of his approach to his occupation... to esports.
Polt is a leader, a singular personality who possesses charm and talent, is driven by his own motivation, and is never beyond the reach of his fans with whom he interacts almost daily. When he decided to part ways with TSL, I knew I had to help Polt find his next step. Polt accepted my guidance and moved to Austin, Texas to begin a new chapter in his career. This has proven to be a great decision as Polt continues to succeed and grow as a Starcraft 2 professional. I couldn’t be happier for him and this opportunity to represent CMStorm, as I expect this partnership to be mutually beneficial for many years to come.


Choi "Polt" Seong Hun, Professional Starcraft 2 Player:
Hello, everyone. I'm pleased to announce this great news! After I left TSL, I moved to Austin, Texas and have been playing and training without a team. When people asked me about a new team, I couldn't answer anything because I had to keep the secret. Now, however, I can announce everything to you. My new home will be CMStorm!
I'm so excited to have CMStorm as a sponsor and will do my very best to make them proud. Now it a time to start new things, and I certainly believe there is great synergy between CMStorm and me. Also I appreciate Andrew, as my friend and manager, for his dedication and help in securing for me this great opportunity. Thank you, everyone, for all your support, and I hope you continue to cheer me on as CMStorm.Polt!



Please give Polt and CM Storm your support!

AWESOME. I have a CM Storm Quick Fire Pro w/Browns and it's the most badass piece of equipment on my desk. My favorite keyboard brand partnering with a really popular player is great :D

So it's a personal sponsor by a hardware company that doesn't preclude him joining another team potentially??

The way Razer sponsored gamers are said to be on "team razer" but are a part of teams in the organized competitive sense?

Yeah, seeing as they say sponsor, seems like a personal sponsorship. Reminds me of when CSN helped Violet get personally sponsored before he went to Azubu.

So would it be reasonable to call this Team Polt?

Ooooo CM Storm if you're reading, you better release this full backlight and full sized white body keyboard and show it off on Polt's stream.

It would be as simple as printing money.

CM Storm make the best no-nonsense mechanical keyboards under $150. It's so good to see them sponsor Polt.
