The mcDuffs StarCraft broadcasting record covers my work as IMBAtv’s main streamer and CEO. The tournament history below credits the channel and its wider team rather than assigning every broadcast to one person.
Broadcasting as mcDuffs
My StarCraft II work was part of IMBAtv, where I served as main streamer and CEO under the name mcDuffs. The public Liquipedia record documents the channel’s tournament coverage and its wider team of casters and community contributors.
A documented tournament history
The channel covered Go4SC2 ESL, CraftCup, Alien Invasion Weekly Cup, the 2012 Ritmix Russian StarCraft II League Season 2, and GIGABYTE Cup. IMBAtv also ran its own events, including the IMBAlonian Star Cup and monthly showmatches.
These are channel and team credits; they are not a claim that I personally cast every listed match. They establish a concrete history behind the esports work.
Broadcast production and the current software rebuild are separate kinds of work. The tournament record establishes the brand’s history; the new platform case describes the development now in progress.
Read the separate IMBA.TV platform rebuild for the current software project and its development status.
Five years of custom development, including hand-coded refactors that improved historical Lighthouse scores from 60 to 99 on desktop and 25 to 70 on mobile.
