I think it is cool. Edit: But, to be fair, he could be 'the fluffy bunny' and my zerg fanboyism would make me find a way to think that was cool, so maybe I'm not the best judge. | ||

Was Hwasin a sniper in the communist army? It just doesn't make sense. | ||

Pretty sure it's referring to one of his TvZ games where he dropped the Z main, got his drop mostly slaughtered, but barely managed to take out the Evolution Chamber by some leet lurker dodging with his last two marines. I guess he was playing as red, although I can't recall. As for Tyrant, it's a great name. Suitably powerful and intimitating. | ||

I've ALWAYS thought of Protoss as green, Terran as Blue and Zerg as red. It made perfect sense to me that he was the Red Sniper, because he was a TvZ specialist and a Zerg sniper. Maybe it's just me and my way of thinking. | ||

As for lame nicknames, TIME ATTACKER (ForGG) is just so funny. And we can't forget BLACK MAGICIAN (CuteAngeL). By the way, what's GGPlay's nickname again? I swear I read somewhere that it was "Man of Virtue." | ||
