The Gods of Starcraft 2 - Part 2 IMMvP

The most accomplished player to date since the release of Starcraft 2 will definitely go to another legend from clan Incredible Miracles (IM), MvP. Jeong Jong Hyeon (IMMvP)'s gold medals is an envy to every other professional SC2 gamers out there. Having won 3 GSLs, World Cyber Games, MLG, a silver GSL medal and having the highest price earnings to date which stood at $255, 790 easily makes MVP the best Starcraft 2 player to date. The Terran God, has proved himself over and over again by winning tournament after tournament from the Korean Global Starcraft League (GSL) to International tournaments such as the Major Gaming League (MLG).

Nicknamed the Game Genie Terran, MVP comes from a Broodwar background. Although not the most accomplish and impressive gamer during his previous gaming career, when compared to the S Class players such as Jaedong, Flash and Bisu, MVP has shown his hunger for success and victory. His Brood War background has set to be a very important factory in his success in SC2. His total record during the Brood War days was only 39.47% or 30-46. This is probably a joke for many. However, Brood War is considered one of the hardest online game has to offered during it's days due to the game's mechanics unlike SC2. For example, gamers can only set 12 units in a hotkey and workers can't be rallied to mineral lines. Thus, every action has to be taken with care and precision. Not to mention keeping up with your macro while microing during multiple engagement fronts. This require a player to have insane amount of apm to play the game at the highest competitive stage.  

Known for his strong macro style and mechanics, no other Starcraft 2 player can emulate the legend in

The Gods of Starcraft 2 - Part 1 IMnestea

Every game has their champions. Golf has Tiger Woods, Basketball has Michael Jordan, Warcraft 3 has Grubby and Legendary fifth race Moon. In Starcraft 2 we have MVP and Nestea. There is no denying the facts that IMMvP and IMNestea are currently the best players for their perspective race at this point of time. The God of Terran IMMvP or more commonly know as the Terran President in Korea and the legendary IMNestea or the Zerg President both holds more GSL championships than any other SC2 gamers out there. Both Mvp and Nestea holds 3 Gold medal trophies from GSL. This is no easy feet to even get into Code S as GSL is deemed the Mecca of the Starcraft universe. Koreans are always the leaders of this game since the early days of Broodwars with legendary names such as Boxer, Nada, Jaedong and Flash.

Both Nestea and MVP were professional gamers from the Brood War era. However, they did not accomplish anything more than just being a punching bag for the S Class players. Nestea was known as ZergBong from BroodWar only spots a measly 11-21 (34.38 % win rate) with minimal appearance. MVP on the other hand had a 30-46 (39.47) record during the days. These results were greatly inferior comparing to S class players such as Jaedong, Flash, Nada and Bisu with each spotting more than 60% win rates and going as high as 80% at some point during their peaks respectively.

Who is TiGerSPR with 90-5 record in SEA GM?

If you are playing at the SEA Starcraft 2 server, you will come across this name being ranked number 1 on the server with a astounding record of 90-5 in Grandmasters? Who do you think he is? First of all, this guy is definitely a Korean pro gamer. Only pros can get this record in the relatively less known South East Asian server. At first, I thought TIgerSPR is Slayers_Tiger. However upon confirmation with SoulmanSPR, TigerSPR is lOvShinyStar, a Code A GSL professional Gamer in Korea. You can probably have watched some of his games in GSL.

The SC2 pro gamer always wanted a puppy which he can keep in his professional gaming house.

Finally during the GSL Code S July, Byun's coach promised that he is allowed to get a puppy if he managed to qualify into the GSL July

Progamer's Mouse, Mousepad and Keyboard

If you are wondering what gaming mouse, mousepad and keyboard your favourite player or progamers use, this post is a very good guide. Here I will be showing which mouse, keyboards and to some extend headsets being used by the best SC2 gamers out there including Idra, Boxer, MVP, Huk and Whitera.

Gaming equipments is probably the most essential tools for every gamers. Every gamer has their own preference and style in choosing their gaming keyboard and gaming mouse. These gaming tools are equivalent to cars to racers. This is how important they are. Using a different mouse and keyboard can often affects the gameplay of these gamers. They have to first get used to different mouse, keyboard as well as configuring the perfect settings before each games. Thus, we always see some downtime in tournaments where players need to obtain their perfect settings such as mouse speed and keyboard. FoxMoon refuses the tournament staff from touching his mouse in order to plug the mouse into the PC. This proves that how important are the gaming tools for them.



EGIdra
Lets start the list with the infamous EGIdra, the Gracken himself. Idra uses the SteelSeries 6Gv2 keyboard and SteelSeries Kinzu gaming mouse.
Keyboard: SteelSeries 6Gv2
