Legionnaire

Peter "Legionnaire" Neate is a retired StarCraft progamer from Australia who played Protoss for eNature Top Team.
Biography[edit]
[1] Only starting out as a humble foreigner who only came for WCG, he eventually stayed and became a progamer, pausing his degree on IT at University. Slowly starting out, he eventually was signed up by Pirates of Space (now MBCGame) along with Brian 'Assem' Fransciolli. He showed how he can be a weapon in Teamleagues, demolishing Toona SG 4-0 (with his victims Silver, Ogogo, Goodfriend and Rock).
Eventually, Legionnaire transferred onto Hexatron with Assem again, to unite with other foreign progamers, Dan 'Rekrul' Schreiber, Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier and Guillaume 'Grrrr...' Patry.
Daniel Lee (manager of Hexatron, now eSTRO) used Legionnaire effectively in the teamleagues, downing players such as BoxeR on XenoSky, XellOs on Neo Forbidden Zone and ClouD on R-Point.
Eventually, after a controversial set of events which forced Legionnaire to forfeit his game against Yooi in the MBC Minor Leagues after beating Soo 2-1 in the preliminaries, he decided it was time to hang up the mouse and keyboard and go back to Australia and concentrate on his studies.
Legionnaire was a fan with many Team Liquidians, often posting his experiences in Progaming. His Korean Legion (pun intended) of fans came from his signature Wink after victory pose, as well as his super-reaver play, breaking the record of kills (with 55).
Facts[edit]
- Legionnaire held the record number of Reaver kills for a single Reaver in a televised game
- the 57-kill record was set on Plains to Hill, where he faced Nal_Rock on September 30, 2003
- this record was only toppled by Snow 7 years later - Legionnaire still holds the record for the Protoss vs. Protoss match-up however.
- In the same match of his team Pirates of Space against Toona SG he reportedly achieved the first All-Kill of all time after defeating Silver, Ogogo, Goodfriend and Rock
