I was watching some old matches and I come across players like Sea and Movie. And it got me thinking! Does anyone knows what are they doing? They streamed before, but now are they in the army ??

tl.net
In that post from last October Sea is listed among players who should return form service within a year.
The second post before that one seems to be rather well informed about "recent notable military departures", but says about Movie that he had "fallen off" for unknown reasons.

from what i know movie is in china atm. think he had a coaching gig? not completely sure

Protoss can legitimately win up to pro level (and even at pro level excepting Flash and maybe 2-4 other Terran players depending on the month) by being able to contain their whole army in hotkeys, and without worrying about stuff like laying mines without self own or accidental siege up at the wrong spot. And Protoss can literally build 20+ Gateways at multiple bases with Dragoon and Zealot even having equal build times to make that part of macro even easier.
Because of all that, instead of having trained with Psi Storm from amateur level, it tends to get incorporated only when needed (e.g. against the very best T in the entire world).
Thus, Protoss players are way worse at using Psi Storm in late game PvT than they should be. Jangbi showed that P can be nearly unstoppable if they train their Psi Storm usage to the extent Terrans practice managing their death ball or Zerg practices managing way more units that can be hotkeyed.
Instead Protoss late game skill consists of moving around a bunch of units that are fast and can all be hotkeyed, plus properly using the ridiculously strong spells of a 350 HP (Arbiter) FLYING unit, plus making sure to have some Observers (an invisible flying unit haha) around.
It's insane that a spell as strong (and even totally tech tree compatible given Arbiters) as Psi Storm isn't even mandatory for every PvT. Does any other race leave something that powerful off the table in half its games just because it might be fragile (as if Shuttle dropping HTs is that fragile composted to how fragile everything is in BW)? Same reason why Ghosts are not the auto-strat against Carriers: it's really hard to pull off, mechanically. In the end, economy of actions is a thing that matters at all stages of the game and in the strategic side of things as well.
Thing is if anything Protoss shouldn't have any issues with storm in PvT given the fact they use storm in PvZ and it's even harder to use there!

Thanks for these answers

a few of us at work have started playing BW ffas at lunch time and it prompted me to pop back here and say hi. Maybe i'll try to persuade them to watch some ASL games if the timing works out. 
Nice to see this game will never die.

How do you control 3-4 arbiters, shuttles with multiple templars and macro at the same time facing an army of sieged tanks, a ctrl group of goliaths with infinite range and vessels? One mistake against a 3-3 terran army and half of your army is gone.

Fuck no, of course you can. It's the aggressiveness and self-righteousness that got him banned.

Honestly, I don't enjoy it that much because i'm a bit of a purist, so trying not to stomp in a FFA is a weird way to play, but maybe we'll get there.

I did this with my high school friends and eventually they just turned into 1v5 anyway so might as well skip to that haha

I'm pretty sure Blizzard just realized that custom ramps were going to keep being a thing and spent time specifically on it when working on the graphics for remastered
