You’re relatively new to the professional Warcraft 3 scene. How long have you been playing the game, and what got you into it?
I've been playing Warcraft 3 since I was around 10 years old, starting out with custom games like Vampirism Fire, Jurassic Park, and Dota 1. I began playing melee ladder in Reign of Chaos with the handle "n00b-bazOOka," where I had around a 55% win rate.
