HOUSTON, Texas — December 19, 2011 — Quantic gaming is proud to announce the newest addition to our roster, Flo “ Flo” Yao.

Flo’s international success at the Zowie DIVINA tournament coupled with her commitment to StarCraft 2, made her a prime candidate for Quantic as the organization continues to create a more colorful roster. She has recently has taken time off from school to play StarCraft full time and has chosen to part ways with her sponsor ZOWIE in order to focus on growing her skill in a team environment.
Flo said this about the decision,
“My departure from ZOWIE was a hard decision, as they have already helped me a lot, but it needed to be done to join Quantic. Working with ZOWIE limited me from joining many organizations because of competitive sponsors, and I felt that being with an organization at the moment is crucial for my development as a Starcraft 2 player. ZOWIE respected my decision and I am truly grateful for their effort in assisting me through my career. Thank you, ZOWIE.”
As a member of Quantic, Flo will travel and play alongside the rest of the Quantic players to domestic and international events as they arise. In the meantime, Flo will continue her training on her stream on http://www.twitch.tv/helloflo and we encourage everyone to watch as she trains to become not just the best female, but the best gamer overall.

Did not exect that.
Hopefully we can see some woman doing it good in the starcraft community.
I hope she is dedicated enough to practice hard to beat some of the "guy" pros.

Great to see more female progamers getting in the scene! Shame she was knocked out by Jinro at Providence, hopefully she can get her revenge!

No, she can actually play at a competitive level from what I've seen. She isn't some random diamond player.

Here we go. Do you ask this for every pro that gets signed by a team? Didn't think so.

she is definitely the most skilled female player I've ever seen play in game myself.... I don't know of a better one in NA. Congrats!!
|
The video is private apparently... cannot access... was for a sec
BUT GOOD JOB. fuck haters.
|
So is she going to Corea with Destiny, Naniwa and SaSe?
|
video is public now and she is borderline grandmasters on NA and EU
|
Congratz! Why isn't she featured on TL? Or do I just miss her streaming sessions since I'm from EU? Anyway should be added if not!

Certainly isn't going to win an MLG anytime soon most likely, but she is from what I've seen the top foreign female, so I think its cool she's getting some support =].
Flo fighting!
