I can tell how new I am to the proscene (started watching April 2008 or so) when I read topics like

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=12961&currentpage=All (WaxAngel's pro team roster)

and even more poignantly, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=16328#1 (Rekrul/Legionnaire's "New Wave of Progamers") hooooly crap.

I'll actually post that list here, with players I've heard of in bold:
On July 29 2004 10:00 Rekrul wrote:Now the following list includes some of those amateurs from the previous few courage tournaments along with all other semi pros who have been lined up waiting. But nevertheless i bring you the latest wave of fully licenced progamers.

1. canata skt1 -- Entry From Courage (defeating the monstrous rekrul 2-1 T_T)

40. hwasin[s.sir] Soul -- Entry From Courage
41. Peter Hexatron (5th highest ranked after gyuntae, ggon, july and siva (in no order))


A lot of Starleague finalists in this class... and a lot of match-fixers T___T

Editing Liquipedia lets one uncover a lot about pro BW history... thanks TL for having such awesome posters with connections!

uhhh so what are you going to do for part 2
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

I recognize almost all these games. Mostly due to me following progaming longer and the epic amounts of replays I watched on LT back in the day.
