I interviewed him too. I'm watching this now. I would like to hear your opinions though.. And I would like to make this clear.. He isn't masters in KR. he's definitely not bad though. I've seen him play against Gm players, and although he exaggerates, he can play well in some games. And i would like a translation of some of those replays.. I believe him when he says they were ridiculing him.. and I think a BM hatch and a 6 pool is enough.... I wouldn't post a replay if someone did that to me.

Also a couple more replays of him..

Dear god, thank you for letting me born a Korean and giving me the language abilities to read the chat in the first replay. It was very worth spending 5 minutes at 4AM.

To make this short, I think this is what happened:
This kid goes to some chat channel, begs and begs for a game. (Observers are making fun of him the entire time, kinda felt bad actually
KeepingProS accepts, and decides to 6 pool / build hatchery at opponent natural for fun times.

I call BS. Not a terrible player though, I expected bronze level play


What did the observers say exactly?

EDIT: Just heard the interview (thanks KR). LOL.

Is this the most naive little guy or what.

Though I gotta give him at least some credit. When I was 11 years old I was playing cat&mouse and turret defense on bnet lol.

In your defense, massing marrines in Fastest map possible could not be any more fun. and on another note, he also has more resources... 2 Kr accounts, 3 NA accounts at the very minimum, and 2+ EU accounts.

I'm so confused but at a guess there is no brother and all the accounts with the same ip address are the same person, who is probably actually 11. Who, apart from maybe a pedophile, would pretend to be younger than they are. The way I see it he's not a bad kid but he's still obviously a young child. When I was 11 I would have probably thought it was a great idea to run a tournament where the winner makes 6 times the entry fee and I would get to walk away with $290.

I don't think we should be too mean to him, because its not like we were all as mature as we are now when we were 11 but he also shouldn't be given special treatment from mods for being young, or a member of NEX.

Also can someone do a translated transcript of the replay with the hatchery in the natural?


Haha yeah I think this is the best read on the situation. I'm guessing he told all his friends that he's going to be or already is a Starcraft 2 gaming pro to try and be more popular or something like that, I can't see anything deeper or anything acutally malicious in this. Like Euforia said, the kid's just 11 ... =P

This story's so weird O.o

Now I'm confused about who is who, what's been posted by who, if it's all just the same guy, and how good he is at SC2.

My brain hurts...

The kid is practicing 6-10hrs/day at 11 years old. He'll be good as fuck if he keeps that up.

Guys... I just got some chills down my spine reading this. I was literally enjoying the fun and drama of this thread only to find out im somehow part of it. I'll tell my side of the story, this was about a month ago.

I belong to the brazilian team KEYD. So this kid would always hang out in our channel and my team leader asked my to try out this kid. So I added him to skype, and at first I was surprised because of his voice. It was the one of a 10-15 year old. I didn't care much. Anyways we play a couple of customs and I win vs him easily. I'll talk about his skill level later. So then I decide to do some 2v2's with him and while we were on skype he kept talking about what does my team offer to me. Did it gave me money? Did it pay for the events? Hardware sponsorship? Then there I realized all this kid cares about is money...

So now on to his skill level

Currently I'm a North American masters zerg with a rating of 1775. http://www.sc2ranks.com/us/285958/compLeX

I can say with full confidence that when we played there was nothing amazing about his play and I doubt that he can be taking games from KR grandmasters or even KR masters. Now for all I know he could have been playing 50 games a day for the last month but from what I saw in our games I'm just not buying this shit. That being said, the way he acts for money or teams is just disgusting.

Hopefully I'm wrong and this kid becomes the new lee young ho but for now... I doubt it.

I saw him play a week ago and it's basically what you describe. 1k Masters Toss I think best describes it.. Not bad, but not good. I would be much more impressed if he didn't act like he was the best and think he's too good.

This thread is hurting my brains. I don't know what to think of this... I've seen him post around TL many times, with mostly terrible posts(closed threads and stuff). W/e, I'll let the mods sort this out.

Does anyone find this kid cute =O? I personally do, it's like watching a bunch of little kids play around and pretend their the meanest and baddest pirates in the seven seas! And then they'll grow and think back like "shit I was such a loser".

Wow so this 11 year old kid improved from Diamond to Masters level in Korea. That's pretty good. He's a lil kid though so can't expect maturity and professionalism out of him. Why did he get banned when he was telling the truth?


No he's platinum in Korea. masters as protoss in NA. (4gate) ㅇ_ㅇ


o_o here is my profile: http://kr.battle.net/sc2/ko/profile/3261023/1/NEXPanDa/ for NEX Clan you have to be masters on Korean server or if you didn't play any league games like me (besides the 2 placemtns I won when I was bored) you play some games with them and e-mail reps etc.

User was banned for this post.

Now you have 2 accounts in platinum... So you have to be masters but your platinum on your 2 KR accounts. and the replay you posted was you being 6 pooled, have a bm hatch put down, and people ridiculing you in Korean. -_-

weird story no doubt.

feels like the little brother that wants to tag along with what you're doing; him not understanding anything that you're doing, but wants to do it because of the grandiose of it.
A depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity.
