A snippet from this week's After Talk

Old Man Uhm: Effort's the man who returned from hell, right? He's immune to curses.
Kim Carrier: Haha. The forces of darkness has no power on Effort.
Kingdom: Blocked from curses
Old Man Uhm: The forces of darkness makes Effort stronger

Thanks Kim Carry!

I don't understand what they're saying. :S

EDIT: I am aware that Kim Carrier's prediction was* RIGHT*, but what do they mean by hell. OH boy I should stop posting.

The hype during the OSL finals was that "Effort survived/trained through Hell to face a god (Flash)".
Hell being the re-re-re-regame he survived through.

So, Kim Carrier's "Curse" actually worked as a blessing, cause he has already conquered hell

It's taken from a TV programme, featuring the usual OSL commentators. One of them, Kim Carrier, is famous for his curse - basically whoever he picks at the start of the OSL to win it ends up failing.

Oh I know that. I just didn't understand what they meant by hell and forces of darkness.
