FBG Staff

Fantom created First Blood Gaming in February of 2018, and since then it has become the largest DotA community on Battle.net. After taking over the small but elite DIHL group of players, it has evolved into an international and well-known league that hosts multiple annual tournaments as well as on-going competitive seasons. Leading the entirety of FBG which now includes Legion TD as well, he has high hopes for a unified and passionate player base that will only continue to grow!

Anda was an ENT and LTD moderator and admin for many years, and his guidance and leadership has helped mold one of the most dedicated and passionate groups of LTD. Legion Tower Defense was the game of choice on the ENT gaming client, and Anda's voice was essential in all of the decisions that went into moderating and deciding how things would progress. Never afraid to be stereotypically German (which he's proud to remind everyone of) he is still a huge influence in the community and offers his insight and expertise whenever he is able.

Anders created the massively impressive WC3stats.com website which is used by almost the entire Warcraft III community. We are lucky enough to have his assistance in coordinating the LTD community statistics with his own algorithms. His mastery of code has enabled many benefits in a post Reforged world that we would be hard pressed to replicate on our own, and we are grateful that he has chosen to help and assist us in our league's endeavors.

Broud3r was the primary developer of the Legion TD map for years and has put much blood, sweat, and tears into its progression. Constantly innovating and changing the meta, as well as combating the difficulties of Warcraft III's ever-changing map dynamics he is a brilliant mind and creator. As he passes along his knowledge to Kappa, Broud3r still assists and offers his own vision into how the map should be handled and his legacy will forever be tied in to the LTD map.

DracoL1ch is a legend and influential developer who is rivaled in DotA 1 accomplishments by only Icefrog himself. His work on the maps has ushered in the new generation of DotA maps, and his innovations and limit testing has taken it to levels unforeseen by previous iterations. He is able to keep pace and regularly updates his own maps, even recently surpassing the 7.00 version as he mirrors the DotA 2 progressions. Using modified versions of his base maps, we have him to thank for keeping the soul of DotA alive over these past years.

Hyo started playing Warcraft 3 back in 2005 (Ladder/Footmen wars/Angel Arena and other TD's) & DotA in 2007 (played DotA League for a while); Has previous experience as a Moderator (Rway, DcT, ENT), and back in 2018, found his way into our community, where he currently helps managing DotA/LTD. He is one of the few moderators who has dealt with both DotA and LTD, and his wisdom and experiences are hugely influential and have helped shape FBG to where we currently are today.

Kappa is the Island Defense Community Owner and Assistant Developer. In addition to this, he is also one of the head Discord Bot Developers for First Blood Gaming and helped develop the queue, ELO, and moderation systems. He also has previous experience for 1 year as an ENT Oversight Moderator.

Mustard is the backbone of FBG DotA and has been crucial in maintaining the success and structure of everything that has been built here. While often silent and operating in the shadows, he is an omnipresent figure and always ready to assist with hosting, queue management, ban requests, and everything in between. Many of the things Mustard does go unrecognized but it is his efforts that keep the machine humming that allows FBG to flourish and maintain our high standards.

Tufuuu would rather be called a modder than map developer since he never created a map on his own (with the exception of the amazing 'Tornado Test Map!") Has been working to keep the DotA 6.86 map alive for Battle.net community with useful updates and maintenance. While he is incredibly humble, Tufu has continuously innovated and kept the map fresh and as bug-free as possible. His new item additions, QoL updates, and many other changes have continued to make the map loved and appreciated by all the players on Reforged.

Wc3Addict is the mastermind behind the DotA ELO system and all of our statistic/data collection, as well as many of the backend operations that tie it all together. His expertise has been essential in creating an environment where our players get to see their hard work and effort rewarded with leaderboards and recognition, and we are all thankful for his time and energy spent for the benefit of the players.
