You rule FireBlast!!

I've always really liked Pusan, but now I have some better reasons why. Thanks.

I feel even worse for his parents now that I know poor his parents are. He lied about going to church so he can play games.

Hopefully his paycheck is big enough to justify lying to his parents and not getting a high quality education.

I like Pusan even more now. He went to great lengths to play the game he loved, and is now paying back his parents for (unknowingly) helping him. I also love his play style. Pusan Fighting!


Oh, and Echo, stop being emo.

Damn... what a jackass. That guy has no conscience, having parents with such conditions and actually lying to them, not just about personal time, but actually having them buy him a computer for "studying". The ends may have ended justifying the means, but what if they didn't? He really is a "special" gamer, particularily in the area of foresight.

I kind of agree with Hippopotamus... That's pretty low, lying to your parents so that they'll buy you a comp =/. But, I still hope he does well. He seems to have a lot thrown into this dealy.

I wonder how his parents feel about his gaming now.

If he was good, he knew he had a chance to make money from playing. I don't think (and his attitude backs this up) that he would ever lie to his parents purely just to play around.

Im kinda dumb when it comes to following the whole pro gaming scene, but I thought Pusan has been a pro for a while? Like 2-3 years...no?

Fascinating article though. Also, what's so unique about his macro? I do remember reading that he used to not even hotkey units. It's that what makes his macro so unique? Does he hotkey gates from like 1-0? :O

I know I used to have a replay of Pusan on Mercury winning PvT adjacent positions doing just that.

The terran seemed quite decent as well, but pusan just had so many units.

Thats touching cause his parents work in the streets and sell snacks at the store for him and he pays them back by giving his pay for his parents.
