New Blues - Avarius & Zhydaris!

Written by Gradius | Monday, 14 December 2009 15:34

Karune, Blizzard's RTS community manager, has announced two new community managers for StarCraft: Avarius and Zhydaris:

In our ramp up of support for the StarCraft community, we have added two new members that will join the community team on the boards! You may have already seen some of their posts, as they are anxious to get mingling with the community.

Please join Xordiah, Cydra, and I in welcoming Avarius and Zhydaris!

A little bio about Avarius
Avarius managed the RTS Stage at the last two BlizzCons as a member of our eSports team here at Blizzard. He may have also been seen at some of our previous events playing pro players and fansites in StarCraft II. Avarius will no doubt use his competitive gaming background to discuss some intricacies of game mechanics, balance, and overall gameplay.

A little bio about Zhydaris
Zhydaris is dedicated to playing 'random' in StarCraft II. Yes, random. Or at least rotate periodically between each race so he can be equally 'dangerous' with every single one of them. He loves to watch replays and to analyze the great games, learning things from those matches: camera movements, hot keys, and control groups to improve.

With the need for this many assistant RTS community managers, I believe we can assume that Blizzard has major plans for the community. Hopefully we can look forward to more blue posts in the official forums and more interaction with the various fansites!
