Team Gravity is proud to announce its two newest players - Simon “Jig” Lacasse-Labelle, and Mathieu “KoreanAir” Blanchette. These two young Canadian Zerg players will add some considerable depth to the team roster. They are a great addition to the team in terms of what they can offer in team leagues and LAN presence.







+ Show Spoiler + Simon “Jig” Lacasse-Labelle





Jig is a French-Canadian Zerg player and two-time WCS America Challenger League qualifier. He made a notable run in the IEM Season VIII – New York Qualifiers in 2013, beating Suppy 2-0 and Major 2-1 before falling out of the qualifier with losses to HuK and hendralisk. With over $2500 made in his StarCraft 2 career, he is already a very accomplished player with hopes of improving still.



Statement from Jig:

“I am really pleased to join Team Gravity. Indeed, I've been lacking motivation for a few months already, and I feel like Team Gravity might be what it takes to bring me back to Starcraft. I think it will be a great opportunity for me to improve as a player in a great atmosphere alongside great players. I can't wait to play with Gravity's roster and represent them in tournaments.”





Mathieu “KoreanAir” Blanchette





KoreanAir is also a French-Canadian Zerg player with deep ties in Team Gravity. As a member of Team Gravity since 2013, even when he went to a different team, he was still part of the family. His most notable LAN results include a 5th-6th place finish at LAN ETS, and a third place finish at SkyzoCup #9. He’s looking to further prove himself in the upcoming WCS America Challenger League qualifiers.



Statement from KoreanAir:

“After being in Team Gravity for almost a year, I decided to leave for Team Killing Spree. After a while, the team has unfortunately given up the competitive scene. With the desire for improvement, I came back to my Gravity family with Jig, and now we're going stronger and stronger. Be afraid of our roster.”

Statement from team owner Marten “BeaSt” Medrano:

“I think I speak for everybody on the team when I say we are all very happy to have Jig and KoreanAir join us. Jig has some great LAN results, has qualified twice for WCS Challenger NA, and will be a great addition to our roster in team league events.



KoreanAir was one of the very first members to join Team Gravity in 2013. He was always reliable and dedicated to the team, and I am very glad he has decided to come back! He’s definitely one of the fan favourites amongst our fan base, and adds a lot of comedic value to our team chat.



Both of these players will be competing in the SkyzoCup #10 LAN in Quebec City on August 9th, and Red Bull Detroit along with a few of their team mates. Jig will also be competing in IEM Toronto. We are all excited to see what they are able to accomplish, and look forward to some more great results!” Jig is a French-Canadian Zerg player and two-time WCS America Challenger League qualifier.
