Most epic Reach moment in my opinion. Once I actually had a dream that Reach came to my city and gave me some cool korean iphone-like device. I know, abstract, but that was kinda cool. And yeah, it's kinda weird that I'm having dreams about progamers. | ||

I mean your playing against Oov, bomb the shit out of him, then drop 2 templars right on his army and storm it and the only thing that survives is the archon o_O | ||

He's known as the "Hero Protoss," a name which AFAIK solidifed after he was the only Protoss player to qualify for the Ro16 in IOPS OSL. There was also more than one instance in which he was the only Protoss player to make it to the Ro8 of a Starleague. Basically, when all other toss players failed, Reach was the man to count on to insure a Protoss presence would be felt. | ||

For tournaments, why are the phrases "Pride of War," "Overcome All," and "Victory after Victory" used for T, Z, and P players respectively? Are these based off Korean reporting or are they a TL tradition? It was first used used in the 2005 SO1 OSL Opening. | ||

The post blitzkrieg mentions is the earliest I've ever seen. On August 07 2006 15:44 Rekrul wrote: Koreans usually don't look strangers in the eyes. Atleast thats true for gamers, most don't have very good social skills. At MBC Trials I raped some terran round one. I was feeling pumped and ready for round 2 vs. Reach. I was then walking towards him and he was walking towards me and we made eye contact, he didn't look away, neither did I. I felt the power of the mantoss. There was nothing I could do. He was Reach. I was the first one to break the eye contact. I knew what was coming. Mother fucker raped me twice with ease. This is one of my favorite TL posts. Yes he is a great player, but I think the nickname arose from this post. | ||
