It's been a while since I've been here! I haven't been active on TL since 2010, and I'm curious as to what's been going on since then. When I left, Jaedong and Flash were still dominating the Brood War scene, ZergBong aka Nestea suddenly discovered he was actually good at something, and there were not nearly as many different forums on the left side.
What's all the rage these days? Do forums have their own community? Who's actually good at Starcraft nowadays? Are all of Trozz's 2k+ posts in haiku?
(By the way, here is what a HQ game report thread used to look like back in the day)
Well, RorO won a star league, Mvp is a boss generally, PartinG plays for SKT T1, EGTL are in proleague, Bisu isn't playing too great, Stephano turned about to be a decent foreigner, The majority of top kespa players are borderline Code A/S level however they are improving at a decent rate all the time, foreigners still don't really compare all that well to koreans, balancewise people are complaining about Terran being too strong for the moment, The best kespa players atm are probably RorO and Bogus.

Sea and co. started fulltime SC2. Sea joined Team Liquid pro-team. Sea left Team Liquid after a few months. Sea quit SC2. Sea started streaming BW on Afreeca. Sea started playing on SSL. Kim Carrier is casting SSL together with Sonic. Bisu is clearly not enjoying SC2, obvious reason as to why he is not sent in SKT lineups anymore. Nal_ra became a LoL commentator. NaDa apparently he is the coach of some SC2 team I guess? Sun became Rain and believe or not he is doing better than Bisu. Motherfucking Roro the anti-team killer has now status of team captain on FPL....

Fill me in!
Uh.. -Jaedong joined freaking EG and is not dominating yet -Flash is not the best of Kespa players switched to sc2 but is improving the fastest -Nestea became super awesome and then sort of melded with Zergbong, becoming wildly inconsistent in the space of just one game -Team liquid has a dota team now What's all the rage? Balance rage. Do forums have their own communities? Well, yes... Who's actually good at starcraft? It sort of depends who and when you ask... Does Trozz post haikus? Yes, they are better than mine. Unfortunately. The LR threads have improved significantly. Plus what everyone else said.

And loads of stuff
no people have been complaining about zerg hence patch zergs
Flash just got into GSL Code S for next season. Jaedong is on EG and they have lost not only every match but ever single game I believe. Violet of KT Rolster passed away.
hey, I won an SCG open and wrote for SCG for a while >_<. Yeah I'll be playing HotS, as soon as I get a job.

I heard about Violet, that made me really sad He was amazing in his heyday, basically carrying KTF along w/ Flash

Basically everything is upside-down.
Thanks, yeah it seems pretty strange. I'd love to hear Nal_rA commentate, though.
Did any of you guys ever see Trozz's commenting on his own match (on Final Destination)? He did the entire thing in verse... can't remember if it was limerick or haiku, but it was pretty much the most amazing thing I've witnessed.

Flash has been sc2 full time for a few months, proleague swapped to sc2 if you didn't pick that up :p He is Code A/S borderline level, so not quite a championship contender yet, but he is on his way!
EPT
