IvD Gaming is proud to welcome our two newest members, Brandon “PuCK” Qual and Harry “MaSsan” Cheong!

puCK comes to us from ROOT Gaming and is one of the top North American Protoss players by any standard. He was able to build a substantial following as an avid streamer but was able to break out to the rest of world after a stellar run in the WCS Season 1 qualifiers. Following his debut on the main stage, he has performed consistently, making Ro32 in WCS America Seasons 2 and 3 as well as securing his place in 2014 Season 1.

Brandon “puCK” Qual:
“I am good good friends with MaSsan and Apocalypse and would really enjoy being on the same team as them. IvD seems like a team with a lot of potential and I am hoping that we can grow into something big!”


After departure from Quantic Gaming, MaSsan chose to join IvD Gaming and we greatly look forward to working with him as he continues his career. MaSsan is a regular attendee at MLG events with notable wins against Suppy, Ryze, daisuki, and Bly. He streams regularly and is very popular amongst Zerg players trying to learn the race because of his excellent analysis, commentary, and chat interaction.

Harry “MaSsan” Cheong:
“Ever since Apoclypse joined IvD, I've always heard of good things about the team. IvD is team of integrity, honesty, and players themselves. Please watch us as we advances through the scene!”

Massan cites "integrity" and "honesty" #shotsfired.

Glad for both of them though.

Seems like a bit of a downgrade for puck. Hope all works well for him though!

Sorry but I find this post filled with irony. I cannot directly link to it atm, as I am on my phone, but the owner of IvD is a confirmed hacker in the TL thread...Integrity is one thing the owner most certainly does not have, assuming the same guy runs it. Makes me very sad to type something like this as i cheer for puck and also enjoy my games with massan but you cannot really beat around the bush on subjects like this.

>< good luck to the players either way though!

I originally did not respond to the post on Team Liquid because I could not find a location to dispute being called a maphacker. I told the opponent who made the accusation originally that I was using a macro key programmed on my mouse to make workers. At the time I was under the impression this was only not allowed at lan events. The player seemed to understand my explanation, but then posted it on Team Liquid as well. I showed the replay to my team and explained what was happening and did not feel the need at the time to respond on team liquid. Not that it has surfaced again, I feel it is time to post this to show that I am not a maphacker, but did use mouse macros for production. This is no longer the case and I apologize for any negative light it has shown towards the organization

mmm well good luck to both parties. I suppose pucKK wasn't salaried on ROOT and MaSsan obviously left unamicably from Quantic so assuming they're both paid by IvD good on them.

Yes, the owner of lvD(Yogitime) is a maphacker.
Proof: http://drop.sc/343450
Sad part is that he continues to deny it after being blant in that replay
http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/1nuxoe/ivd_gaming_is_recruiting/ccmbp2u?context=3.
If you at least admit it then, I wouldn't be so disappointed and have more respect for you and your team.

Nevertheless, good luck to PuCK, Massan, and Apocalypse as maphacking doesnt really affect management anyways.
people say practice is perfect but if nothing is perfect whats the point in practicing?
