MYM StarCraft reinforced!

mym

StarCraft is such an old game, but it is still one of the most famous and most loved games in the whole world. It is especially the unique country of Korea that shows us every day, that there are no limits for prize moneys, crazy playing systems and the amount of fans watching the games live. But also outside Korea a load of different events with fine organization and prize money show us regularly how big and important StarCraft BroodWar still is in the eSports scene. And of course, one of the most biggest and most successful eSports organizations in the world, yes I am talking about MeetYourMakers, is proud to have an amazing team of StarCraft players. To look back only at the past few weeks, the MYM players participated in the WCG Grand Final in the USA and actually six MYM players represented their team at the huge IEST-festival in China.

But we don't want to focus on individual results only. No, it is time to bring MYM back to glory and victory, also in the most important team leagues out there in the BroodWar scene. But with the current players that goal is just not possible. Therefore it's time for some big changes in the MYM StarCraft team, time for a load of new strong players - MYM reinforces with six new players. Five of them played before under the flag of DkH as one of the most active and conquering teams:

Protoss MYM.Gentleman
Jan Hansen
Germany Germany
Terran MYM.Ghost
Michael Beck
Germany Germany
Protoss MYM.Dreiven
Grzegorz Kordek
Poland
Protoss MYM.Darkgamer
Sebastian Fromme
Germany Germany
Zerg MYM.Jae
Thomas Backs
Germany Germany
Random MYM.Yinsul
Thomas Kemper
Germany Germany
Zerg MYM.Breakdown
Christian Schäfer
Germany Germany
 



As you can notice, all of those players are European citizens, so sending them to various offline events won't be a big problem. Further almost all of them are well known in the StarCraft scene. Goody just represented Germany at the World Cyber Games in Seattle, but sadly he is unable to join MYM since he decided to end his StarCraft career. Ghost is considered as probably the strongest Terran player Germany has those days, as for the Gentleman and Darkgamer combom, that is almost a sure win. Jae and Yinsul are a strong 2n2 team too, not only in the German National Team, but in the whole StarCraft scene. And well, does Dreiven, the winner of the WCG Poland and the man, who took down Draco at the WCG Finals this year, need an introduction at all? The same goes for Breakdown. This guy has played for the legendary team of pG and also participated at the WCG finals few times. Now he is back and active again!

Here are also some results from DkH that show how great they did during the last months:

  • BWCL Champion 2007
  • WGT CL Playoffs, Rank 3
  • BWCL Premier League Top 4
  • iCCup Clanleague Top 4 in season 1
  • WGTour season 14, 2v2: Jae finished 1st
  • a couple of WCG participants in 2005, 2006, 2207
  • almost 50% of all EPS players came from DkH in 2006
  • a couple of Top 1 results in BW4ever, WGTour 1n1, PGTour 1n1, Qcup 1n1

 

With those strong players, and also the other MYM StarCraft players, a new unique StarCraft-team is built. They will be able to compete in the following team leagues (DkH will be renamed to MYM) - and of course in many more 1on1 event:

  • BWCL Division 1
  • ICCup Clanleague Division 1
  • WGT Clanleague Division 2
  • Qpad Cup
  • Xeri's The Team Tournament

For a smooth organisation and management of the team on all those battlefields it was also necessary to bring the following people from DkH to MYM:

  • Germany Markus 'Max' Kemper
    Task: Team Manager
  • Germany Pieter 'Zpiet' Jauernig
    Task: Team Manager
  • Germany Philipp 'Crymeareaver' Eickholt
    Task: StarCraft Editor
  • Germany Benedikt 'WarNIX' Wundt
    Task: Shoutcaster
  • Germany Mathias 'Muh' Bermel
    Task: Replay Manager

Further our longtime, solo players Ukraine Yan and Raven will parting ways with MYM. Thanks for all the things you guys did for MYM.

Let's hear what the shifter and the new man in MYM have to say:

Germany MYM.Archi:

"In the future we want to improve our activity in team leagues hence it was necessary to add a couple of new players to the team. Further we want to get a positive atmosphere and breathe new life into our a little bit ailing looking team.
I am sure the new additions will be a big enrichtment for us. We will have a lot of fun together and we hope the community can take delight in us too."

 

Germany MYM.MaX:

"We had a great time with DkH., but during the last months we felt more and more that we need a change, a new motivation, and new challenge! And MYM is the perfect fit for us and a great new home! Together we will build up a strong team with the already excisting and the new players, that will fight for every title. We have ambitious goals and we’ll give everything to achieve these goals. But there is more than just winning titles. In addition, we will try to develop a strong team spirit in our team. So all in all, we are proud to become a part of the ‘MeetYourMakers‘! We are looking forward to a great time! Please keep cheering us, we need your support!"

 

And now it is on you guys, yell a warm welcome and cheer to your reinforced MYM StarCraft team!

Its a great lineup on paper but may i ask, why is Day on that roster? Day is by far my favorit player in europe but as far as i know, he choose not to attend the WCG quallifire and focus 100% on his school and await the release of SC2.

What im trying to say is, why list a player that quit the game?
