Introduction
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. Since then I’ve traveled the
globe to compete against the best in the world, winning prizes and acclaim, including the 2005
CPL World Tour Championship in New York City for a $150,000 first place finish.
LIVIN’ LARGE
Since my first big tournament wins, I have been a “Professional Cyberathlete”, traveling the
world and livin’ large with lots of International media coverage on outlets such as MTV, ESPN
and G4TV to name only a few. It's unreal - it's crazy. I’m living a dream by playing video
games for a living. I’ve always been athletic and took sports like hockey and football very
seriously, working out and training hard. This discipline helps me become a better gamer and
my drive to be the best has opened the doors necessary to become a professional.
A DREAM
Now, another dream is being realized – building the ultimate gaming computer, made up of the
best parts under my own brand. Quality hardware makes a huge difference in competitions…a
couple more frames per second and everything gets really nice. It's all about getting the
computer processing faster and allowing more fluid movement around the maps.
My vision for Fatal1ty hardware is to allow gamers to focus on the game without worrying
about their equipment, something I’ve preached since I began competing. I don’t want to
worry about my equipment. I want it to be there – over and done with - so I can focus on the
game. I want it to be the fastest and most stable computer equipment on the face of the
planet, so quality is what Fatal1ty brand products will represent.
