I'm not sure we'll see Effort in games anytime soon. He says himself that his skill level is only half as high as it was, and Guemchi has only played one game in Proleague since his return.

I feel like EffOrt is going to suddenly break out after this. I mean, I think that break will actually end up doing him some good and after he gets his practice done he could very likely catch fire and obliterate people in a few months.

At least, that's what I'm hoping happens.

I hope Kwanro is inspired by this...
But still; Effort's aggressive 2 hatch play was pretty sweet to watch, looking forward to eventually seeing his TvZ again! (Though I remember his ZvZ being pretty balling too)

I'm so glad effort is back.

I've always thought he had the best mid game zvt and zvp of any zerg.

I'm a number jaedong fan for life guy but efforts macro game at times just felt perfect.

There's kind of a negative undertone in this article about him leaving and returning. Sounds like there is still some lingering resentment surrounding it.

Effort learns what the rest of us have known for years. SCBW is more fun than school work.

There is somewhat of a negative undertone about Effort's return, but the only lingering resentment in Effort's leaving and coming back are the fans who are still upset and haven't forgotten how much his sudden retirement disappointed them. Effort made sure to address them though so that it doesn't seem like he's just waltzing in as a progamer again.

But both him and Coach KIMDONGWOO saying that it was a hard decision to decide whether he should come back or not probably sounded like a negative undertone as well, but it's not that they were all like, "Damn Effort, you had the nerve to leave us out of nowhere, and now you have the freakin' nerve to just come back to us after leaving such a huge gap and hurting so many people?" but more like, "You should stick with what you chose to take on yourself, but if you really do want to come back, it will be hard, and we don't know if you'll be as successful as you were in the past again."

I'm glad Effort is back. Not that I like the guy, or I'm fan of his but this will make things much more competitive. Bisu v Effort has to happen again
