So for the past 8 months I have spent almost all of my free time playing/watching/reading about poker. So much so that I stopped watching Starcraft altogether around the end of 2010.
What I would love is for people to fill me in with everything that has happened in Proleague (I caught up with the individual leagues that have been completed, so please no spoilers for MST or new OSL!). When I stopped watching, Bisu was just coming out of his slump, Flash and Jaedong were still destroying Proleague and Hydra was becoming a good player.
A quick skim over the power rank and reading a bit around the forums, Hydra seems to be on an absolute tear, Jaedong is in a slump (by Jaedong's standards anyway), Snow and great are doing well and Hiya has stepped up for Oz.
So any info on how any players are doing in Proleague or any expansion or clarification on what I've mentioned would be great!
Well, they almost got sent to jail. However, they're currently working on hundreds of community service hours and other things, which if screwed up, will warrant them a ticket straight to the house of bars.
ACE was doing surprisingly well Rounds 1 and 2 then got destroyed in Winner's League. Similar for FOX. Stars raped Round 1, failed horribly Round 2, and are mediocre in WL. SKT raped Round 1, did very well in 2, and are doing okay in WL KT sucked in normal PL and are doing very well in WL (guess why). Although their other players seem to have finally woken up in WL so we might see them do better in 5+6. OZ is similar but their "other players" aren't as good. Killer is a boss. Hite kinda slumped en masse for a bit but now a lot are coming back (Leta, Movie, Skyhigh sort of).
Violet was diagnosed with acute leukemia Light went to Woongjin Kwanro went on hiatus from progaming Guemchi came back to Woongjin Free went to B-team and back to A-team Skyhigh went to B-team and back to A-team Canata to be joining ACE
So any unexpected all kills or 3 kill streaks? Who has the best PvZ right now? Bisu? Stork?
Stats AKed SKT and Stars back to back. FBH 3 killed twice I think? Either way he's being a baller.
