Hey everyone, this is my first blog and I've wanted to write one for a long time about my favorite starcraft player Lee Sung Eun aka (T)firebathero,so here we go!



(T)firebatherofor the longest time has been my inspiration to play starcraft. As a fan, I've always tried to defend him against people who say he is abysmal vs protoss. Sure his TvP does have the record to back up that statement, but it's the very reason I myself came to admire him as a player.
[image loading]


As a Terran player, when I first started playing I was so bad at TvP but good at the other matchups. Due to how bad I was I saw how a player like (T)firebathero, who not being the greatest at TvP, could still help out his team with wins in TvT and TvZ. I shared firebathero's frustration with protoss for the longest time, the match-up just wouldn't click. "If firebathero could play TvP like his other match-ups he would have won an OSL or MSL by now!" this is what I would say to myself every time I'd see him drop out of MSL or OSL.


Every match firebathero played I watched in anticipation of not only a fantastic ceremony, but the play of someone who truly loves the game. When people think of epic (T)firebathero games they think (T)firebathero vs (Z)sAviOr, (T)firebathero vs (T)Flash, (T)firebathero vs (Z)Jaedong, and even (T)firebathero vs (P)Much

Even though I love those games just as much as the next fan, I enjoy the games where firebathero shocks the starcraft community like the games in the ClubDay MSL.



I believe firebathero has it in him to win an OSL or MSL, and when he does people imagine a huge ceremony, but I myself imagine firebathero showing the most joyful face on the planet with the tears refusing to stop.

firebathero is my captain for fantasy league, I did this for several fantasy seasons because win or lose firebathero is a champion in my eyes.

Firebathero is still the best!

Now you come crawling out of the dark.
I would totally do the same thing if sAviOr did a (little) comeback, he's my FBH (in this blog if this makes any sense :D )

Firebathero always had the potential to win a league. I'm so happy he's finally performing well again, and in TvP too.

No he didn't.

He will never win an MSL or OSL because his straight up play just lacks too much.

If Casy could win an OSL, then FBH too!

If people like Sync, Casy, and to a lesser extent Mind and Luxury can win a league, I don't see why FBH can't too.
