"I've recently taken up a position with the ESL in helping them secure a foothold in Dota 2. Right now, my job is creating and coordinating events, lead of media, and a few other logistics, but right now ESL keeps me busy. This show match that we have between Zero and aL provides only a small sample of what's to come which at the moment is extremely promising. I'm more of a community driven guy in terms of events to be fair, but for those of you who have ever checked some of those out, expect more in the near future especially for new up and coming casters and teams. More details for that will be coming very soon."

"Thinking back to when I made my early steps in the competitive scene of computer games, the first thing that comes to my mind is the Electronic Sports League. I think many people did forget that the ESL played and still plays a huge role in the development of the entire eSports scene. When Chen Zhen approached me, I immediately felt that I can help and support this project to make their start into Dota 2 and perhaps even further. The ESL got me started in eSports and now I get the chance to repay!"
