Advokate released from MYM

aEverything that has a beginning also has an end. Here comes a story of a guy named Russian Fede- Terran MYM.Advokate! A2 has been an outstanding Terran over a long period of time in the foreign scene and is the best player Russia ever had. He developed new strategies and gained a lot of fans with his extraordinary micro power play. From 2003 until now Dmitry made thousands of Dollars based on his monthly sallary from MYM and the prize money he earned.

His quite successful e-Sports career started in 2003 when he won the WCG Russia and finished in the Top 16 at the grand final. Just one year later he improved again and finished amongst the Top 8 at the WCG Grand Final. During those years he participated in a couple of smaller and bigger online as well as offline events and reached usually Top 16 ranks. His big breakthrough started at the end of 2004 and continued in 2005, reaching its peak in 2006:

  • 3rd ASUS Summer 2005
  • 1st ASUS 2005 Autumn Cup
  • 2nd WCG Russia 2005
  • Top 16 WCG 2005
  • Reps.Ru Spring 2005 United Race Wars 1st/2nd place
  • 1st GosuGamers Kickoff Final
  • Omega Computer Cafe Tournament 2nd place
  • Komb@t Computer Cafe Tournament 2/3rd place
  • Mark Computer Cafe Tournament 2nd place

He has taken the Europe Eurocup like a raging storm in 2006, going through the group phase with an incredible 5-2 and defeating the second best terran from his homeland of Russia, Russian Fede- iG.EX, in the first round of the playoffs. This is only one glimpse of his terran dominance in 2006. He had standout performances in the TANL, the AmeriCup2, and in GG.net's "The Ace", too. Amongst those league performances, Advokate has helped his team greatly by doing a wonderful job throughout the SCCL, including a final match where he defeated one of the ToT's best - Germany ToT)Mondragon( when MYM really needed a win. In the same year he was invited to the huge Sandlot tournament organised by Blizzard to fight side by side with the Korean pro-players. Here are more results from 2006 from which he made some good money:

  • ASUS Spring 2006 4th place
  • Playground April 2006 1st place
  • Playground March 2006 2nd place
  • GGL AmeriCup II Top 16
  • Ukraine Starcraft League Gosu Division 1st place
  • Korolev City Tournament 1st place
  • Omega Computer Cafe Tournament #3 3rd place
  • Dilvish's Astalavista LanParty 2/3rd place
  • Sky Technology Computer Cafe Tournament 1st place
  • WCG 2006 Russian Preliminary 5-6th place
  • ASUS Cup Summer 2006 5th-6th place
  • ASUS Cup Autumn 2006 1st place

In 2007 A2 participated in the ASUS tournament, again, but was not able to attend the grand final of the World Cyber Games, though he was invited to the IEST in China.

Due to the fact that Advokate has recently lost his interest in playing StarCraft he didn't practise any longer as much as he did before. He wasn't able to participate in many events and support his team. Sadly, he was knocked out in his latest games in the Qcup and at the IEST quite fast. Today, we have a sad news to announce - MYM and Advokate are parting ways and the player will be released from his contract. Due to some discrepancy between the player, his team and tournament holders, we are not able to continue a close and positive collaboration.

We from MYM want to express gratitude to Dmitry for everything he did for the team. It has been a pleasure having such a person on the team and we wish him good luck for the future!

Though we recently heard about A-2 a little but it played all this time under fake aka. And on any tournament Dmitry will be not the convenient contender for any.
