The way that NonY works is very similar to the way that mondragon works, he takes breaks from the game often to deal with real life, but has the ability to go into a starcraft godmode simply due to his talent

i believe that he could be destroying Flash/JD/Bisu as a bonjwa in bw had he stayed in korea
i stand by his decisions as he has chosen his own path and this path will lead him back to glory
Tyler will rise again, he will get to the finals, and he will dominate

My favorite, most favorite game of all time is that Nony vs Idra match on Andromeda with the storms, and hearing Chill shout out "HUGE storms on those tanks, oh my god! Storms everywhere cutting up so many tanks, OH MY GOD". SO AWESOME.

I agree, the guy is a fierce competitor, and I have the faith. I have him taking third in my TSL3 bracket behind a NesTea vs. MVP final. Just couldn't quite see him taking out MVP.

After seeing nony vs jinro last week I'm convinced.

Give this man enough time to prepare for a specific series, and he could potentially destroy anyone.

If you have some favorite memories I haven't added, please post them and I will add them to the op. No one has posted any of their favorite moments yet

Tyler walks over the GSL champions to get to the top in my bracket. ^^

As a Tyler fan that didn't play BW I have to say thanks for the biography there, its always nice to know more about the pro's you cheer on from the sidelines.

im glad to have people like this who make awesome blogs regarding players!
I believe NonY has every intention of winning the tsl3 and I believe he has the capacity to do so.
I can't imagine him not doing well after he took out jinro, It really shows me that he has the capacity to be really good at this game.

Due to the nature of TSL it looks like he will have a bit of time to prepare for matches, and this looks like where he will shine.

Yeah, there is no doubt in my mind, that if Nony sets his mind to it, he can easily take the TSL, no big deal.

If there is any progamer right now with the most unrealized potential (because, you know, he chose to have a life), it's Nony.
This man is a freak of nature.

This is some of the best hype for TSL 3 I have read yet, so much history and such an epic showdown coming between Tyler and the world.

Koreans might own white dudes, but Tyler owns the world. The valiant knight returns to bring the foreigner scene out of the darkness. Liquid`Tyler FIGHTING!

I would really like to see Nony take sc2 as serious as he did bw. He was a beast.

That TSL1 intro is still the best sc/sc2 intro ever. So good.

1000% agree, TSL1 intro is so amazing, not even sure if TSL3 can provide a better video than that

Very nice write-up. It's sad that some of these newer SC players don't know about NoNy and his ability to force IdrA to GG by attacking with a single worker. People should not underestimate NoNy. I think this TSL is going to be the best one yet and Tyler will rise to the occasion.

That was pretty much the best part of TSL2.
