Rogues Gallery - Foul Play NA
Saturday, Jan 09 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)
Considered a bit of a backwater in the professional StarCraft scene, North America has long been home to a few big names with even bigger personalities. Far from the spotlights of Starleagues, Rogues Gallery is excited to bring you an event with all the panache and professionalism of a back room poker game. Foul Play NA is a showmatch series that will pit kingpins of North American StarCraft against each other in a cutthroat struggle for street cred (and the winner's share of the purse). Step through the unmarked back alley door, pull up a chair at the bar, and enjoy the show.

Hawk vs BoA
Hawk
Hawk has faced many tough customers in his long career, but this may be one of the toughest. While his activity in most of 2020 was somewhat sporadic, rumor has it that Hawk has really knocked off the rust and returned to championship form. He took down red_duck in a previous Foul Play NA, he took down DragOn in Turf Wars, and he's still got time to be an active CPL coach. Hawk can hang with anyone if he's in shape, and Friday he'll get the chance to show that BoA is just another Protoss.
BoA
BoA meanwhile arrived fresh in the NA scene with NASL 3 and never looked back. In his first two matches for Foul Play NA he went 3-0 against both StRyKeR and DragOn, which he followed up with a 4-0 record for his team in Turf Wars. He's posted great results outside of just NA too, with a 6th place finish in BSL 10. BoA has shown himself to be capable of executing a variety of builds, and when he's running hot he can beat any foreign player. However at times his execution seems inconsistent, which might be Hawk's best chance to steal a win from the juggernaut.
