BACKGROUND



Hi friends,



For my 30th birthday, I (hazelynut) will be sponsoring the inaugural “Hazely's Nut Cup," a $100 online tournament for foreign (non-Korean) StarCraft players.



I intended to host this tournament 7 years ago, but was much too shy to host a tournament in my name.

However, given that I am now 30 years of age, I give many fewer fks. I am therefore happy to announce registration for this very important, very prestigious tournament.

Brood War was my love from 2008-2011, and was instrumental in shaping the course of my life, forging friendships and even my marriage with my former 2v2 partner. This is a fun photobomb of Brood War progamers. I hope to show good games.

This calls for some nutty builds.

Theses are just maps from the ladder pool so of course they seem bland. Although if you want more interesting you can always tune into Qik's STPL where he cranks the maps up to 11.
