About

For those that don’t know me, Hayw1re is the in-game name that I play under. The name “Hayw1re” was inspired by the playstyle of my favorite Dota 2 professional gamer, Funn1k.

Some of these names include Kuhero616, which was used during my semi-professional career as a top 10 ranked Warcraft III player, and floofydugong which was used during my casual college gaming days.

Though a part of me may still be a bit “floofy” or “hero”-like, I can already feel that I am growing into something new and different.

This is me going Hayw1re.
