"Ngamer, predicting at the last minute? Shocking!"

Ngamer is known in Oracle land for both the quality and the lateness of his predictions, the later having been known to catch up with him on more than one occasion. In SC2k3, he became the only person to ever make the top 10 while missing a match, and posting an average that could have easily landed him in the top 5 otherwise. In SC2k4 he missed two matches, again finishing with an average that could have landed him in the top 5... if he hadn't missed the matches. In SC2k5 he completed the hat trick by missing a match due to a power outage - only excessive generosity from the host kept that one from counting against him.

Ngamer is always a dangerous competitor - his skills have managed to land him the 4th best modern average. And don't let the 8th place lifetime average fool you - that's due only to predicting in low-scoring SC2k3, where his average was 3rd best for the contest. This fact is reflected in his points above average score - in the matches he predicted, he outscored the field by an average of 1.6 points, 4th best out of all Oracle competitors. And although he's had a problem with missing matches in the past, this time he has a teammate to keep him on track, which may make him even more dangerous.
