And, no, your eyes do not deceive you: the player on the front right (with Boxer in the middle) is former pro Nissi~Shakie (Z) ("Lee Chang-hoon") (placed top 16 in Coca-Cola OGN Starleague) and the guy on the left is none other than IntoTheRainbow (P) ("Kim Sung-jae")!!!
The other two are very high-level amateurs (Gamei 2300+), but still relatively unknown.
Oh, man. How Boxer pulled this off (especially after what IS team said about IntoTheRainbow) I have no idea. Cool stuff. Very happy for Rainbow, given all he's been through.
We should be seeing these guys in action together for the first time in the upcoming MBC Game Team v Team League.

What a pitty. I loved to see SoHa[SaM] in any leagues.

If this thread is correct:
- Nissi~shakie (z)
- iloveoov (t)
- IntoTheRainBow (p)
- Zergman (z, dooh)
mensrea? You know the other 2's aliases?
|
noone said anything about Zergman being in though..
|
Holy crap, what a gang. I can't wait to see them play. And iloveoov gets Boxer for his mentor! Goodness. :O
|
wasnt intotherainbow the one boxer practiced with for his game vs reach?
|

Actually, Boxer's choice of IntoTheRainbow is a bit of a surprise, not only given the siuation with IS (IS team vowed not to allow Rainbow to play for another team as long as he was still technically under contract with them), but also what Boxer's father reportedly told the IS team after Boxer's loss to Reach in the SKY 2002 final: basically that he felt the IS team let down Boxer by not providing him with an adequate Protoss sparring partner to prepare for Reach (IS team, at the time, had only one genuine toss player - Rainbow - so it was very clear who dad was pointing fingers at...).
Anyway, Rainbow's improved a lot and has got some nice skills. Certainly looks a worthy successor to his real-life mentor, the legendary IntoTheRain. He's also a nice guy irl and didn't deserve to be treated the way he was by IS. I'm glad things worked out for him with Boxer. Wish him all the best.

thanks for translating
The AMD uniform is basically for Giyom, but since it's either that or some neutral one from MBC Game or something our manager prefers if we use that one anyway.
(so no I don't get money for that)
It's spelled Goossens btw 
|
ILOVEOOV!!! the bad manner gosu!! Finally someone see his skill 
Iloveoov and Zergman, anyone doubt one day very fast they will be top 10?? They will rise up just like Nada did
|
Anyway, his 4 partners are:
Nissi~shakie
iloveoov
IntoTheRainBow
Who is the 4th?? Can you confirm mensr/wax/naz? Is it Zergman?
|
holly shit ... damit i thought boxer will choose naz as his partner but well
|
Sigh. Will they be playing in KPGA team league or? Is it too soon?
|
mensrea and other korean high on knowledge, or players like naz..
do you know if Nissi~Shakie aka is H_Violet_W ?
i have seen 2 replays of Nissi~Shakie in the name but in the game its H_Violet_W..
Thanks

Isn't [MGW]Zergman Japanese? If so, I doubt that he would be playing professionally in Korea. Don't Koreans and Japanese hate the hell out of each other? Maybe I am misinformed. Mensrea, help a brotha out.
Edit: Those are some kickass sweaters. The "Teddy Bear Gone Bad" look is sweet...
Edit: Thanks Klogon & Mensrea

I don't hate japanese but my mom has a thing against them (not at a personal level... i guess you could say against the governement). Most people under 30 don't have a problem with them.
EDIT: always exceptions though

Well, think of the English and the Irish. That should give you a good feel for things between Japan and Korea. Except maybe a tad bit more intense...

this may be out of context but...is intotherain retired???

Yes. He's started his own PC Room (internet cafe - kinda...) here in Seoul. Gets cocky kids coming in to challenge him all the time. And he has to be nice to them because it's business. Poor guy...

lol england and ireland..dont they have people running through the streets of ireland with friggin oozes and stuff. so, i dont think japan and korea are on the same level of hate. (its the protestant guerilla's killin the christians am i wrong?) -___- i may be confused but i know there is guns and street gangs involved..

i guess its like the swedes and the norwegians (drone Daaman :p)
How the swedes make of the norwegians =)
|
Ya, poor swedes. They can't help being the way they are  To the american kid up there, I think you should maybe read up a little about the northern ireland situation...
I think Korea - Japan is a little more intense than Sweden - Norway though. But what do I know.
|

|

Hmmm, not sure what the official name of the team is. Doubt it's "Team Boxer" tho... Team TongYang (from the name of the sponsor)? Team Orion (from the name of the sponsor's subsidiary)?

Team Orion sounds cool
Team Boxer just sounds selfish

Wales hates England :[ No one likes the English
