For the uninitiated: Does the sobriquet 'DDR Terran' just refer to him liking DDR or what?

Goodbye and goodluck XellOs, Legends never die! I wonder if he is considering SC2 or not, and what he will do as an employee for CJ, nonetheless , god bless and GL in you're future endeavors!

Damn, you almost gave me a heart attack. I thought Reach retired.

There's no question that Reach == Best-looking progamer ever.

You must construct additional pylons.

So sad, loved the documentary he did though. Was good stuff.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Without him, we won't have sAviOr (which can be a good thing O_O ), Effort, Movie, Skyhigh, Snow or any of the current CJ (note the CJ, not the OGN Sparkys' crew) roster. I just realized that this guy is like a silent version of Boxer as both of them have made great influence in the world of Esport but one is more vocal.

I call BS on this story. The amount of blasphemy in this thread by Bisu fans is disgusting.

Xellos is S class in looks. Someone find that thread.

He's not retired, but no team wants him. Poor guy, he went to the military way too early which hurt his growth. He's still pretty young by progamer standards.

ruby actually got offered by a team during the draft but he declined because the salary was too low for him
