pretty sad news..
effort has been the only zerg other than JD in recent years who has shown to be pretty solid in all 3 matchups, imo the only 2 s-class zergs right now. he definitely is the 2nd best zerg in the world and is far ahead of the 3rd best - whoever that may be

Still Snow, Hydra, and Movie are much better than PuMa, Horang2 and HoGiL(well Hydra and HoGiL might be close) and Skyhigh and Leta are proven. Actually Movie, Snow AND Skyhigh are all proven. Sad times for Leta. CJ should be fine.

NOOOOO!! Effort was the second best zerg. Now, it'll just be Jaedong and maybe Action. A big maybe on Action


Action needs at least a year to ferment. This is still pretty shocking.

Dude, jaedong beat flash in the msl finals like 3 seasons ago

Wow, I really liked effort... This is comes out as really sudden for me... I know it's not related to the seemingly sudden collapse of BW, but this just adds to it :/

Still, that's a pretty sad lineup for CJ. They have no solid consistent player. Movie idk wth happened to him. Snow is good but he still needs time to develop his skills, skyhigh is a one matchup wonder and hydra is nothing but mediocre. Don't forget that they just also lost their coach, so it's going to be a tough time for CJ.

I guess they'll be fighting at the bottom of the list along with hite and maybe ACE but I think ACE will do good this year.
Lee Young Ho fighting! KT P are just CHINTOSSTIC.

so sad to see this.... hes probably the #2 zerg behind JD, too. he was wavering on his decision, and maybe the impending doom of brood war has pushed him over the edge.

I'd say ZerO is the 2nd best zerg right now and he wasn't really very far behind effort at all.

I think the retirement of coach cho might also have a lot to do with it.

Same, even if it wasn't mentioned. There probally wasnt a coach to talk the players case.

Or maybe effort demanded something unreasonable - no idea.

What's interesting though is Jaedong and Flash both came out of the worst teams (at the time). SnOw can only become bonjwa
