Mad respect for Hydra - he's definitely showing some true progamer spirit and perseverance.
I joined TeamLiquid for TSL2 but I stayed for Nada's Body.

Does he wear an eye-patch? That would be so badass.

I like how there's this ad on the 1st page: + Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

It's advertising glasses, yet the website is ClearlyContacts?

Also, can a mod please change the title to "Hydra is a baller!" Much appreciated if done.

Like some others have said, it's also incredibly admirable that he didn't bring it up until now...when he won a starleague and has proven to be one of the top players this season.

BTW, I agree with the person that said this should be posted in the news section. It's an incredibly inspirational piece of news that I think everyone on TL should hear about.

Craziness. /respect to Hydra

I don't want him to make his one good eye deteriorate through playing more Starcraft though, that would be kinda sad.

And yes Hydra is the true Piratezerg.

Wow, love his attitude/spirit, what a super cool guy. Respect to Hydra
Even if you do become accustomed to playing with just one eye it still must be difficult
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Always liked Hydra, and this makes him even cooler.

I dont see anything remarkable about it.

There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

Bisu fucked overhimself with his shitty PvT, there is no need to blame others for that.
