IvD Gaming is proud to welcome its two newest players, Andrew “intense” Pirelli and Samson “Arium” Nazaryan! We are immeasurably excited to have these two up and coming players finalize our pro roster. As they become part of the next generation of pro gamers, we look forward to nurturing their talents and watching them grow as a part of our family. IvD first met both Arium and intense in our tri-weekly tournaments when we were still just a casting team back in 2012- early 2013 and they were always a favorite to see show up, both placing very high on a regular basis. When they approached us after leaving SEED it seemed like fate and we decided that we'd like to help create a future for these young pro gamers under the IvD flag.
Andrew “intense” Pirelli is a 16 year old Californian Terran player who is Grandmaster on the North American and Korean servers. Intense is the perfect word to describe his passion for Starcraft. He hopes to garner a large following as he aims to be the best Terran player in North America. Intense hopes to continue to grow along side IvD and together become powerhouses of the NA scene.

"I'm glad that I joined IvD, it seems very professional and friendly thus far, hopefully I will improve as both a person and a player and maybe one day succeed in esports. This is going to be intense."

Samson “Arium” Nazaryan is a 14 year old North American Grandmaster Protoss player hailing from California. Arium has been playing StarCraft for a little over 3 years. But has only recently began playing competitively on a semi-pro level. He participated in the 2013 MLG Spring Championship where he was able to compete vs Bubbles on the main stage, and the SoCal LANFest Spring where he would place 6th overall. Arium has a simple goal for this new year, improve his play and become the best player he can while trying to grow his fan base as he becomes an avid streamer.
