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! | ||

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. | ||

I am sure Effort will not rise again to his peak level, it would be very naive to hope so. Being absent for so much time and returning to the level , when you can kill Flash in a box is unreachablethese days . However, I really want this to happen, cause I wholeheartedly oppose any kind of domination. And I really want a new messiah, any of a sort.I don't think it will be Effort, no. I hope there is a player out there, who has the desire and skill to be the best. | ||

I think we should keep in mind that he didn't take THAT long of a break, and has been playing with the team for quite some time this season throughout the time he's been off the lineup due to his break. I'm pretty sure he's already back in form if not close...Him and Hydra will be true double dragons. | ||

People unfamiliar with Effort should really check out jalstar's tribute to effort, compiling some of Effort's most brilliant games. http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=163927 It's definitely worth every bit of your time. Also, Effort's ZvZ is sex. Here's my favourite ZvZ game featuring him He pulled this off. In an important playoff match too. What a baller. Don't even need to mention his ZvT; despite his controversial series win over Flash he's definitely shown himself to be able to take Flash head on straight up, AND win. And well, he had better ZvP than JD. He's just amazing. Welcome back Effort. Make your stay in S-class longer this time. + Show Spoiler + wtf CJ so stacked leta/movie/horang/hydra/snow/effort + effort for ace if need be is simply unfair. | ||

You will see that I am right when he is sent out as CJ's ace in proleague. He also boasts a decent CJ face, although not as good as mOvie's. | ||

Effort did far more than "just" win an OSL - he had by far the best ZvP at the time, had a terrifying streak as his team's ace player, and was the first Zerg to beat Jaedong in a Bo3. Hell, before his slump he had 60%+ in every matchup. Hardly "unspectacular." And for the record, it has only been a little over a year since he retired. | ||

I have never played zerg in my life, and most likely, never will. Though I love how zerg can spit out massive units in few seconds, I was always overwhelmed by the amazing spell casters of protoss units and amazing defense by terran units. Never liked zerg, never will. That's what I thought. Korean Air Season 1 Finals arrive, and I tell myself 'Flash has this easy'. To be honest, I expected Effort to make it to finals from Semis, 3-2'ing Kal on the way. Though the 3-0 was impressive, I never expected what would happen next. I wake up in the Saturday morning, getting ready to go to my volunteer service. I turn on the laptop to check the score, and I see 2-0 Flash. Nothing unusual, Flash was going to get his golden mouse. Or so I thought. 4 Hours later, at Math team, I approach my friends and ask them: "Well, did Flash sweep the series?". Friends: "No" I was disappointed for a second. Me: "Then what was the score?" Friends: "3-2" Me: "Oh, a close one. I saw 2-0 as I walked out the door this morning, I thought Flash would win easily. Props to Eff..." Friends: "Alex, Effort came back and won" That moment, I flipped over from my chair. How the FUCK can you come back from 2-0 in the finals to win against not only the best Terran in the world, but the best player? As soon as I got home, I watched all the games in the series: How Effort almost had game 1, how Effort was about to go home crying, then just coming back into the series out of nowhere by brilliant plays, especially set 4. I still don't like zerg, and mostly likely, I never will. But I will always appreciate how Effort came back from the series, reverse sweeping Flash to win his first OSL title. I will always appreciate how Effort showed the endless limit for a race called zerg, at a time where one certain Terran was sweeping the whole competition. Messiah, welcome back. | ||

He lay waste to the Golden Kingdom there upon the final field of battle. As his vain and sure foe lay gasping out the last of his bloodied breaths, the sureness in his form, swaddled in billowing black, he spoke to the assembled, "And with this victory I take my leave, I go West." And for a thousand fortnights there he would dwell, in the spaces that abound in between the mortal places until once more his foe would rise once again. Then would his hand grasp for his mighty sword, and in a terrible wrath he would come forth yet again to do battle with Gods. The last of that noble race of men. The Messiah would return to slay our Gods and recall to the world the power of The Bloodline... ![[image loading]](http://www.gb93.com/site_images/2011-06-16/5_Comic_Books_By_Rock_Stars_04.jpg) Engraving from the caves of The Prophet depicting the return of the Messiah.

TaekBangLeeSaang are the Gods, Flash is the foe, and OSL was the "Final Field of Battle". Obviously Effort is the Messiah, and the Bloodlines refers to the continuation of the Savior lineage through Effort. In any case, I hope you liked the post. Pure, unadulterated fanboyism.

Bisu, BeSt and Fantasy are the only players I care about on SkT. Even with Frotoss and Rain coming up strong, I even skipped over S2 and Soo's matches in the finals this year. CJ's lineup is deep and I love every single one of the players. Movie? FUCK YES REAVERS! I really wish you had gotten more than one game off Flash when you had the chance buddy. That arbiter play was sick in that win though. Props for that. Leta? Two port, two port, two port. SOOO cute! Hydra? Watching him eat JD alive last year was the best match I have ever seen in Starcraft. Horang2? Easily one of my favorites. 40 million gates? Check. Awesome interviews? Check. SkyHigh? Honestly, I know you're awesome. I just haven't watched the games...but you're growing on me after I saw you try so hard against Flash. Snow? Dude...when you held the line with those reavers against Jaedong...good lord I came. and now? ... Effort? AWWWWW SHIT IT'S ON BITCHES!!!! | ||

I expect him to be at the level of Hydra or less, I doubt he has a good chance against Flash. So I'm not expecting him to become the next zerg king, and Hydra will probably stay as CJ's ace. | ||

Why was he missing? http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Effort In September 2010, Effort announced his retirement, citing that he had achieved his goal as a progamer (to win a Starleague) and was seeking new challenges in life. On March 21, 3:52 AM (KST), Hite Entus tweeted: "'Effort(Jungwoo Kim/Zerg)' is coming back! He will rejoin us from today and practice until he gets his pro-gamer license back on Aug 31st Plz cheer him up! Thank you!!!!!" | ||

we should keep in mind that there are always serious mindgames and trickery going on between practice partners. and we also shouldnt forget how flash basically threw away game 4 by going for a super risky all-in strat. anyway, efforts return is a great thing for the scene. hope he gets back in form quickly. | ||

Haha, don't sweat it man, Flash has nothing more to prove to anyone ever how good he is. Don't need to justify him not having 7 or 8 titles. | ||

A bit off topic, but while we're on CJ, Cloud left CJ in August. His dad passed away suddenly in July so Cloud decided to take over his dad's struggling restaurant. It's quite sad. But Cloud says he will return one day when the restaurant is doing better, because esports is his life. | ||
