kAra joins MYM, Blackman steps down

mym

Our StarCraft team has been thru constant changes, with additions such as Strelok, DinOt or Arew that made our roster considerably stronger. With the recent BWCL #28 and iCC CL #3 trophies , the MYM.sc squad proved to be a worthy opponent to any major international team, and the results from any other individual or team league are there to back this up.

Today is a special day, however, as we proudly present our newest addition – say hello to Germany Protoss MYM.kAra!
A German Protoss player, MYM.kAra has focused on his play style to best fit the 2v2 games, making him one of the best players of this kind from his country; he was a part of some well-known teams such as Hungary Face2Face, Germany Deutschlands kranke Horde or France MicroGamerZ, he is definitely an accomplished player skill wise, with great potential. He will be teamed with Germany Zerg MYM.jae, one of our German Zerg players, who was paired with Germany Zerg MYM.Yinsul.

However, we have another announcement to make: due to inactivity-related issues, we will have to release 3 players of our team: Poland Zerg Blackman, Germany Protoss Hennes and Germany Zerg Yinsul will be now MYM honorable members. It’s been a great experience and we are not in any way breaking contact with them – we have decided to respect their life priorities, meaning that if the opportunity for them to come back should arise, they will not be rejected.

myMYM.vhallee: Welcome aboard! Why did you choose to become a part of MYM?
MYM.kAra: MYM is one of the best teams around and to improve, you need to play with the best. I want to get in shape for the upcoming events like WCG and I believe that our team can help me with it.

What does being a MYM player mean to you now? What do you think of your new team members?
I'm quite pleased to join the team and I’ll do my best for the upcoming leagues. I've been playing since 1999 and I already met most of the team members online or offline.

What are your expectations from the team?
I hope we can win a lot of titles in the next months. We are good enough to seek for the iCC CL and BWCL championships again. We can also do better in the WGTCL and I want to help with all of it. I have a lot of good friends in our team and I’m sure I’ll have a great time here.

Basically, our roster looks like this:

There are so big differences between 1v1 and 2v2 that you need players that fit in that different squads?

well kara is the exception of the rule: he and zpiet were over several years probably (except the koreans) the strongest 2v2 team of the world, equally strong as the team of the templars. but kara is by now a strong 1v1 player too. Do not regret. Always forward and never back.

(3 months ago) #21 myMYM\|vhallee

2v2 is indeed different from 1v1: the skill gap is definitely there, meaning that a 1v1 player is better, but that skill is replaced with coordination. put 2 great 1v1 players in a team against a good 2v2 team and you'll see the latter one will win. I'll be nicer when you're smarter.

How come that the MYM Starcraft-team is so much bigger than the other teams, like MYM.Dota or MYM.wc3? I dont know much about Starcraft but i am still curious why this team has 17 (of what i can see in the lineup) while the other teams in MYM only has like 5-7 players.

(3 months ago) #24 myMYM\|vhallee

well i can't answer for the sc managers, but the primary answer would be because there are several team and individual events where our team is represented. this basically means that in order to participate to many events, we need many players. it also eliminates the problems caused by a missing player, as he can be replaced quite easily. hope i got that right ;p

I'll be nicer when you're smarter.

(3 months ago) #25 MYM\|MaX

yes, you are right : ) We are currently playing 3 teamleagues, means 3 CWs every weekend, and a lot of individual events. So we need a bigger amount of players to make sure that we can take part successfully in all important events.

The answer is the sc players aren't getting paid :P

(3 months ago) #26 myMYM\|9mm

MYM.Strelok, i rofl'd, some1 from the tek9 cod4 team is called strelok as well ;)

(3 months ago) #27 myMYM\|vhallee

afaik strelok means something like 'sniper' in ukrainian, so it's possible ;p

EDIT: i talked to strelok and he told me it means "the one who shoots"... so basically i was pretty close :D

Quoting vhallee: afaik strelok means something like 'sniper' in ukrainian, so it's possible ;p EDIT: i talked to strelok and he told me it means "the one who shoots"... so basically i was pretty close :D yup, he was originally called "knaller" renamed to strelok which he told us was ukranian/russian translation for it ;)

havent followed his results since 1-2months but since he's joining mym i guess he improved A-lot, 1v1 especially since i dont see him nowhere near the wgtcl div1 1v1 good players, as for 2v2 - f2f has a strong 2v2 lineup, if my memory serves me kara was not their no1 choice, all in all bit strange in my eyes, i'm guessing all the good players are just too loyal to their clans (mostly refering to best gamers f2f has and prolly wont lose until they disband) Last edited by Dendra at 25.05.2008, 05:49 If force won't work, use greater force.

dont worry Dendra, its a good choice. You will see...

(3 months ago) #33 myMYM\|Dendra

it's in my nature to worry - think of the worst scenarios first, enjoy the good ones later. If force won't work, use greater force.
