Grrr was an innovator though. He wasn't that great, but revolutionized strategy during these early years.

That list is just perfect. Amazing job.

...Soulkey?

Grrr should be definitely be in because he is one of the early pioneer of korean bw scene and a innovator as well. Personally I feel none of the modern zergs deserve to be in but JD. Effort was looking like a future hall of famer and on the rise but decided to randomly retire out of nowhere.

I didn't see a exact location. Will the public be able to attend? if so who wants to make a mini-TL meetup for it?

List is solid. Can't think of a more deserving group.

AWESOME team ! 
legendary..

I dont even know why should he be on this list ?
nevermind, I bet its just the fanboyism speaking through some people 
It happened to me too..
often..

I don't really agree with Kingdom or Grrr. As someone already said if Grrr wasn't a foreinger nobody would remember him today. I would have included Midas.

I don't see why it's called "eSports Hall of Fame"
It should be called "Brood War Hall of Fame" if anything

Ddang?
If I had to pick a standard terran who never made it to an OSL or MSL final to include in the hall of fame, Midas wouldn't even be my first choice.

These people mastered their ESPORT broodwar more than any other person has mastered a competitive game. Think about it what other game had that long of a run with serious competitions. Maybe some shooters like CS or Quake or an RTS like WC3 and perhaps some old school RTS like AOE2, but even with mastering their own games they didn't have the competition pool of BW.

Glad to see Xellos,Nalra and Grrr there ^^

agree with list 100%, there's not a single person I would nit pick about that's on that list.
edit: although, the fanboy in me screams FIREBATHERO

"Hole of shame" sounds more funny for me ;P

How about Calm? He hasnt been really impresive in PL, but in individuals he had 1 MSL gold and multiple semi-final appearances, that is a lot of acomplishment, much more than Effort had. Even if we think it's a little "overperformance" for a player of his skill.
