LOL I thought about bumping this topic too... Although TBH, he didn't exactly beat a great player, he still showed he's got what it takes if he can clean up all his little mistakes. + Show Spoiler [Boxer GOM TV] +
Somehow, I think Boxer made a bet with someone that he'd nuke the poor guy lol.
LEGEND!! LEGEND!!

his performance against Baxter is a good reason why he should stay

maybe hes not on top anymore, or cant defeat some of the major contenders of today, but goddamn, does he know how to put on a show and entertain! i stayed up last night just to watch him play, and it was oh so worth it just to see him live, and to hear nick cast boxer's games

Boxer sucks huge nuts now, he just is not good at all.. he's sick but not up to par, he should become a spaceman mascot for some team or something.

Give him a chance first after he comes back. He hasn't had enough practice.

Exactly. The man is an entertainer, if not a progamer.

boxer has been experimenting with macro strategies and the new styles of play... it's interesting to see, and i do believe he will eventually find a perfect blend of both his insane trickery with going for long term resource/macro advantages like some kind of insane robot sent back from the future to do one thing: rape noobz.

like nevake said, he needs to be able to practice and really dedicate himself to the game before he is able to prove he can keep up with the best of today's players, but i think he can do it. he is very smart, and i think he will adapt, and probably evolve the game again.

I would rather he faded straight into obscurity than attempt a comeback and fail miserably, it would crush me if he said he was going to win something for his fans and then was knocked out at the last (or even the first) hurdle that crossed his path.

He is the reason I got into progaming, he is the reason progaming is the way it is today, and if he sullied his legend with an embarassing defeat it would be crippling to starcraft and everyone that follows it.

Disagree ¬¬ Boxer won't fade and against what mani ppl think he's gonna come back, maybe he won't win any mayor league this year or next but we will see him on the top 50 again ^^ and maybe even top 20 and WTF maybe in top 10 ^^

Even if he fails to come back won't be bad not for SC, not for Proscene, not for us the fans and not for his legacy, hes over all that you'll see my friend

I really hope his age doesn't affect Starcraft, like slower hands? If age isn't a factor i don't see a reason why boxer cant return to his throne.

I completely disagree boxer aint done yet with SC , he beeing again with T1 will up his skill again .

Only concern towards Boxer is he complaining about his wrists , never a good sign .

boxer will return and improve if he wishes to, come on kids its a fuckin video game not olympic gymnastics, lets be serious. Once his macro is deceint enough hell be good, just look at upmagic right now and boxer can actually micro well..just imagine.

Hmm Casy+Upmagic = Boxer and so forth.

Greatest in what regard? He is far from the most successful gamer of all time and doesn't have too many stats on paper to support that claim.

The greatest player on paper is either July (because of his golden mouse) or Nada. Both of these are players that I can see being considered as great as boxer but not greater. Also, even though there are other players who are better on paper it's difficult to see considering them greater than boxer.
You're trying to think about starcraft players' love of boxer rationally but I think theres a completely irrationa...something.. that creates love for players like boxer, july, nada, savior, bisu, jaedong, flash... They bring more to the game than their game. I think theres definitely something to be said for that.

Much to my dismay I agree with you completly. Boxer will always be the emperor. He started it all, but for him to come back in this day and age of starcraft is just too much for anyone to handle. He paved the way for us like the founding fathers did for the USA.

Unfortunatly, They are all dead... and so is Boxer's career.

When he went back to SKT T1.. I was soooo excited. I couldn't believe that finally he was on a REAL team again.

How long has it been now, a few months.. Still no appearance, Is he still in training..?

I'm sure he is still training with the team but when is he going to show his face and hit the stage...

I'm not ready to let boxer go until the Kespa makes a big deal out of it. I want a huge good bye ceremony... Highlight games, followed by him playing against the old greats of his time...

IloveOov, Garimto, Nal_ra... Lets see some of these faces show their respect and call it a day.




Goodbye Boxer. It was fun while it lasted.

I joined TL just to comment about my opinion of boxer (since english isn't my mother language I m sorry for my bad grammar) so I wish nobody will upset I bump up a 2 month out of date thread

when boxer became a defending champion before he joined the military, people think he is a master of starcraft

when he comeback after conscription I remembered most people think that his skills are fall below standard that is impossible to him to become no 1# like before

BUT, he prove worthy on the 1st place and most people think that he is a grandmaster of starcraft until now

now despite many change made by blizzard for starcraft 2 people think that this is the end of boxer and this time the champion will be a new face..

I myself don't know for sure if the champion will be a new face or not, but this time I will put my bet in boxer since he prove himself a worthy player that not all talk..

If he become the champion AGAIN this time it will earn him a place higher than "master" or "grandmaster" among his fans and other starcraft players, he will become a LEGEND among gamers.

This thread needs to be locked, seriously. It's fucking mindblowing the amount of people that still don't get that this is a pro-boxer article.
