•Why did you decide to join myR

The main reason was because I didn't fell like my old team was taking the game serious enough, not much was ever happening, and I think that affected my motivation towards the game. I never felt I achived anything, and then suddenly I was contacted by myR, which offered a good deal, in a more professional and motivated enviorment, where I would be able to not only improve as a player, but also preform in competitions that they would have the ressources to send me to.

• How long have you played ? (RTS and Sc2)

I've played RTS games for all my active gaming life, which is for 10 years now. I started out with old ones, such as AOE1 and 2, and then later moved on to games such as settlers and stronghold etc.. I've been playing sc2 ever since the beta. It took me a while to realise that I had a shot at competitive though. The only RTS games I've played with a competitive mindset have been COH and SC2.
•Have you played the same race from the begining?

No, I originally started out playing terran, because it was that race I liked the most from the beta vods, I'd been watching around release. Because of my obsession with Idra, I later switched to zerg though, which obviesly turned out to be a great choice .
•What did you already achieved?

Absolutly nothing. I haven't won anything, and haven't even got second or third place. My only "achivement" is being gm this, now ending, season.

•What are your Goals?

My goals are to do something about the above :P. I want to win something, and prove myself as a progamer. I want to gain something from all this hardwork I'm putting into the game. I think that, me joining this team i a step in the right direction.

What are your goals for the short, medium and long term for starcraft 2?

Short term: Maintain a strong position in sc2, and start competing in the weekly cups alot more than I currently do. I want to win something soon. Medium term: Start streaming on a regular basis. Hopefully I'll get some better brandwidth sometime this summer, which will allow me to stream without any downsides.
Long term: Get to a level of play, where I can attend the big lans, and compete with all the pros I watch on streams.

•How often do you train? (Hours per day or weeks)

It depends on school. If I don't have any chores or homework, I play 25-30 games a day. On average with school and such, it's probably more around 10-15 ladder games + cgs and such. It ofc. varies in hours a day.

•What is your preffered training method? (Ladder, Cups, Practice matches etc.)

I like ladder. Despite all the cheese and whatnot, ladder gives you a great idea of the current metagame, which is really important to know, if you want to compete anywhere, and it gives you diversity. You won't get used to a particular playstyle one of your practise buddys do, but you'll be overall good against everything.
