This is episode two of two about Grt's career. Grt came up playing with teams in his local Toronto LAN scene and attended CPL Summer 2005 with DeadZone. He was one of the Canadian players able to escape into an American team after. While already on Green Berets, a CAL invite level squad, but not yet a starter he was a part of the 50cal mix-team which shockingly upset the rival super-team at CPL Winter 2005. The big move of Grt's career came when he joined Pandemic in 2006. The team soon became one of the elite NA sides and capable of competing with Europe's. Their fourth place finish at WSVG NY included a win over NiP, the team of the year. This run in Pandemic meant Grt ended CS 1.6 in the top NA team. For 2007 he joined forces with shaGuar and they played Source in CGS (Championship Gaming Series) for the Chicago Chimera, who were the champions of the first season of the televised multi-game league. After CGS Grt continued to play on but the scene had shrunk drastically. It would be as a coach in CS:GO that Grt again emerged. He coached teams like Splyce, CLG and Rogue. He has since taken a position with the Pittsburgh Knights as their General Manager. In part two, Grt talks about joining Pandemic and making a WSVG NY run late in 1.6, swapping to Source and forming a super-team with Evil Geniuses, border issues travelling to the USA, winning CGS S1, CGS closing down and getting to represent Canada at a WCG in 1.6.
