Although I feel Effort is way overrated, I'm happy he is coming back to sc1 instead of sc2. Hopefully it keeps some competition going a bit longer. Cheers!

EFFFOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Omfg my favorite Zerg player. JD is dominant but EffOrt's playing style is pure sex. Loved him ever since I saw that tiebreaker match in the EVER 09 OSL against fantasy. Gogogo I want to see more macro plays in the future!

Why would you post that here?

IMHO Effort is like (ZerO + Hydra) / 2, he has the good sides of both of them (smart builds and powerful standard), it sure can raise the zerg chances to win a Starleague.
For the Swarm!!! Jaedong & Neo_G.Soulkey fan.

Really? In EVERY thread now? I really hate SC2..

Effort's return will be pretty cool to see, but I have to agree with the opinion that his victory vs Flash was pretty inexplicable. Flash just fell to pieces, wasn't himself at all. Still, Effort is a top player, gonna be great seeing him back.

Effort! The only problem is that CJ can (seemingly) only have 1 super gosu zerg at a time so it might destroy my current favourite player Hydra. :/

Hopefully they can co-exist!

Glad to see Effort coming back, completely forgot that was finally happening now. I recall reading stuff from CJ players saying back in like may that he is already as good as he was when he quit, so hopefully he will kick some ass again. Big fan of Effort, he is one of my favorite zergs.

Also awesome Husky video (haven't watched that since it was announced that Effort would return) reminded me of the other song changed to be about effort, which is also awesome.

I thought this was about Flash's surgery recovery
Oh well, hope Effort is still as good as before

I've yet to re-watch the last three games from that OSL series, and I don't think I ever will. Still I look forward to his return. The return of a popular player can only be a good thing for BW!

Good stuff. Yay!

One of my personal favourite games, Effort vs Stork. I'm really not sure why I dig it so much but its pretty suave. =)

Never seen anything special in his play. Always thought his OSL win was a big luck. Jaedong has far better chances to beat Flash in bo5, only if he could get past his zvz. But, well - that's just me.
