Arseynimz

Early Years: 1990s-2006
Areseynimz first began his gaming career way back in the early 1990s with various gaming consoles as a young teenager. However it was not until 1998 at the age of 19 where he would make his first step into his long gaming career with the PC.

Arseynimz played MP games such as Starcraft, Warcraft, Doom, Age of Empires and Quake. Arseynimz continued to play these games right into the early 2000s but then stopped his gaming career after focusing more on his private life such as wife and kids.

MoFo: 2006-2007
However in October 2006, Arseynimz would return to gaming with the release of Battlefield 2142 which would become Arseynimz first real competitive game. In December 2006, Arseynimz decided to create his own clan for BF2142, he had never been in a clan before so was initially quite a challenge for him. Arsey decided that the team name would be called MoFo and would be based in his home country of New Zealand. MoFo turned out to be a success as a medium sized casual clan. MoFo lasted for nearly a year but then finally the clan begun to crumble apart and so Arseynimz disbanded the team. However that was not the end for Arsey.

Global Domination: 2007-2010
Arsey and a few other ex MoFos set up the Global Domination clan another all New Zealand clan, initially this was just a BF2142 clan however gD spread out into other games such as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Left 4 Dead. Arseynimz enjoyed CoD4 in particular and was made Captain of their competitive gaming squad on the Cybergamer ladder where they entered a team at the end of the first season.

gD had a reasonable first season winning four of their matches and only losing two of their matches. However in May 2008, Season 1 ended and many of the gD players did not feel they wanted to continue into Season 2 and so their CoD4 team disbanded. Arseynimz and gD continued to play socially in CoD4 for many more months. However gD made a brief return to competitive gaming at the end of October 2008, however the team lost both their matches by a considerable margin and so the squad disbanded once again.

Despite the fact that the majority of gD not being interested in the main Cybergamer ladder for CoD4, Areseynimz managed to persuade them to return in the New Zealand Cybergamer Open ladder, a ladder for only NZ teams. This did get the teams attention and gD signed up to the ladder in January 2009. The team ran successfully from January 2009 all the way until August 2009 where it finally disbanded. The gD team was actually a top 10 NZ clan and had much success in beating top clans like Team Renegade and Affliction. However the team took many losses and its final ratio at the end of August 2009 was nine wins to nine losses.

This would be gDs final engagement for CoD4 as after this their team disbanded once again but this time for good. Arseynimz also Captained the gB Left 4 Dead Rotoblin team on Cybergamer where they had a tough time in the ladder taking only five wins to eight losses. However Arseynimz and the others enjoyed L4D but was shut down like the CoD4 team in August 2009.

After August 2009, gD did not participate in any more ladder activities and Arseynimz slowly began to drift away from his clan as he stayed active in the competitive gaming scene, running many CG Ladders and shoutcasting many matches as he quickly became one of the most well known figures in the Australian Competitve Community.

Arseynimz played socially for gB in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, however the clan was drastically smaller then and was beginning to die as of 2010 and then finally in July 2010, Global Domination shut down for good.

GameStah: 2008-Present
Arseynimz was always very interested in the competitive Call of Duty scene even though his clan at the time Global Domination rarely ever played in it. Arseynimz attended a lot of LANs around the New Zealand vicinity however he would be introduced to GameStah in the 2008 xLAN in New Zealand. GameStah had come to NZ to shoutcast the CoD4 Tournament that was going on there and Arseynimz became quite intrigued about shoutcasting and talked to the GameStah representatives there about becoming a shoutcaster
