Announcing PSIstorm Gaming

News

We are pleased to announce the formation of a new StarCraft II Gaming organization: PSIstorm Gaming. While we have some incredibly exciting things on the horizon, we did not want to wait before opening our doors and making some preliminary announcements.

We are a group of gaming enthusiasts dedicated to the idea of fun, no-BM, helpful, non-elitist, no-hacking spirit of things.

So what are we doing, exactly? Well, firstly we have a new Clan setup for SC2 (you can recognize us by the PSISTM tag). If you are interested in joining, you can check out our website or our facebook page for more information. All existing members from the [KJ] clan will be automatically added when we see them online. It is otherwise by invite only.

Second, we are working with pro players, casters, and content producers to help bring you guys some aweome stuff. We very recently did a series of showmatches for our members with the one and only iNcontroL. We’ve also done showmatches with players like Hendralisk and Enderr. There is also a meetup planned for Red Bull BattleGrounds DC. We just finished the second season of our online tournament, which paid out over $400 in winnings! Season 3 will be coming soon, and is open to all.

Possibly the most exciting thing we are happy to announce right now is our very first tournament:
PSIstorm Philippines SC2 LAN, Sept 27-28, with a $150 prize pool (details will be on our website soon)

And of course our SC2 activities are only the beginning. We certainly plan to expand into other games in the future.

Who are we?
We are a group of SC2 fans, who grew out of the MD/DC/VA SC2 Facebook group, and the [KJ] Clan.
The owners are:
Freeedom (This was his brainchild, leader of the KJ clan, and organizer of all the MD/DC/VA SC2 Facebook group events)
FilthyRake (AHGL Administrator, Let’s Kung Fu! guy, caster)
BlakeHG (Media, content-editing & management)
SirMalagant (Graphics, branding, content editing & management)

Showmatches with Pro Starcraft 2 player Hendralisk

Showmatches & Leagues

Next Friday, July 25, 11pm US Eastern we’ll have 3 of the [KJ] clans players play against professional zerg player, Complexity’s Hendralisk! He’s currently ranked #133 in the world.

Our best Terran, Zerg and Protoss will have fun playing against a Pro. While none of them are close to GrandMaster level and lets be honest has no shot of winning, this will be a fun experience for them. It’s like playing basketball against an NBA player, you won’t win but it will be fun to get your shots blocked almost every attempt!

This will be casted by FilthyRake via Let’s Kung Fu’s charity event (more info here:http://conqueringthegalaxyforcharity.com/). Our event is at 11pm Eastern, but you can watch his current 24 hour cast for other Starcraft and Hearthstone games here:http://twitch.tv/filthyrake

It will be an all-kill style team format, between the clan and Hendralisk, 1 game each:

[KJ]SirMalagant – Protoss
[KJ]KenjiMuyo – Terran
[KJ]AGTOrange – Zerg
[KJ]Josef – Terran
[KJ]FilthyRake – Protoss
[KJ]Freeedom – Zerg
? – Ace match

This is open to any of our other clan members (must have the [KJ] tag) that want to play let us know you just have to beat the 3 players above for the right (bo3) to play against the pro. But if no challengers, it will be those 3 chosen.
