FATAL1TY STORY
Who knew that at age 19, I would be a World
Champion PC gamer. When I was 13, I actually played
competitive billiards in professional tournaments and
won four or five games off guys who played at the
highest level. I actually thought of making a career of it,
but at that young age situations change rapidly.
Because I’ve been blessed with great hand-eye
coordination and a grasp of mathematics (an important
element in video gaming) I gravitated to that activity.
GOING PRO
I started professional gaming in 1999 when I entered the CPL (Cyberathlete
Professional League) tournament in Dallas and won $4,000 for coming in third
place. Emerging as one of the top players in the United States, a company interested
in sponsoring me flew me to Sweden to compete against the top 12 players in the
world. I won 18 straight games, lost none, and took first place, becoming the
number one ranked Quake III player in the world in the process. Two months later
I followed that success by traveling to Dallas and defending my title as the world’s
best Quake III player, winning the $40,000 grand prize. From there I entered
competitions all over the world, including Singapore, Korea, Germany, Australia,
Holland and Brazil in addition to Los Angeles, New York and St. Louis.
WINNING STREAK
I was excited to showcase my true gaming skills when defending my title as CPL
Champion of the year at the CPL Winter 2001 because I would be competing in a
totally different first person shooter (fps) game, Alien vs. Predator II. I won that
competition and walked away with a new car. The next year I won the same title
playing Unreal Tournament 2003, becoming the only three-time CPL champion.
And I did it playing a different game each year, something no one else has ever
done and a feat of which I am extremely proud.
At QuakeCon 2002, I faced off against my rival ZeRo4 in one of the most highly
anticipated matches of the year, winning in a 14 to (-1) killer victory. Competing at
Quakecon 2004, I became the World’s 1st Doom3 Champion by defeating Daler in
a series of very challenging matches and earning $25,000 for the victory.
