On the 22nd of October, at the Anaheim Convention Center, Mvp trounced NesTea (IM) in the finals of the 2011 Battle.net Invitational and acquired the champion ring.

Indeed, this was posted extremely late, which is why I placed it under "Blogs" instead of "SC2 General"

Still, I think all of these articles deserve to be translated and brought to fans eventually... don't you agree?

When did NesTea become Demon King and why?

This term popped up frequently in the article: 대마왕. The "왕" part definitely means "king" but I was stumped by the "대마" part so I tried using my resources. The internet didn't help either - I could not find a reliable source.

Apparently 대마 can mean "hemp" or "marijuana"... I highly doubt that's the correct translation.

I used Google Translate and 대마왕 simply became "Demon King". (Yes, I know that Google Translate is unreliable... however, it's decent when translating one word at a time. When you put in sentences, it falls apart though.) I figured that "Demon King" is more likely to be accurate than "Marijuana King" (even though his ID used to be Zergbong lol)

If a native speaker could come and clarify the meaning of 대마왕, it would be greatly appreciated! By the way, I have also found interviews of NesTea after his GSL Open Season victory also containing that nickname, which indicates that it has been in use for quite a long time. Unfortunately, the translators totally skipped that term, so I still am not sure what it means. Thus, you can take my translation with a grain of salt, but I do think that "Demon King" NesTea is an awesome nickname.

If I were to guess why NesTea has such a nickname, it probably has to do with his Brood War days.

Another one of NesTea's nicknames is "추리왕" which is basically "Detective"
