Occupation | Professional gamer |
Guillaume Patry (born June 19, 1982) is a professional StarCraft player from Canada who plays under the alias Grrrr....
Grrrr..., a French-Canadian from the region of Quebec City,[1] was a StarCraft world champion in 1999.[2] He dominated the scene as a random player before he arrived in Korea, where he then focused on the Protoss race. While Garimto pioneered many "cheesy" strategies for protoss, virtually every (then) standard build order was a direct result of Grrr's innovations. He won the Hanaro OSL- the second OSL in history[3]- a king of king's tournament, and placed high in a variety of others in a long career. Eventually his passion and drive in Starcraft declined and his performance with it, resulting in his retirement in early 2004.
After he retired, he became a gambler with Bertrand Grospellier, former French professional Starcraft gamer, but quit again.
According to a report from FOMOS (online professional game media), he's living a life as ordinary staff of a company, but he said that he could return to the professional game field after the launching of StarCraft II[4]
