So he goes off to the military.... where he will continue his career as a progamer?

Wow, reminds me of that maddox rant about jocks getting special treatment in high school, except that "jock" in S. Korea means "PC gaming superstar".

EDIT: unless, everyone who is in the military is aloud to continue their careers while in the military, then that's ok. But that doesn't seem like real military service to this American at all!
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

You people are either really goddamn stupid or you just don't read anything before you post.

Boxer has to do the EXACT SAME SHIT as every other recruit. Except he gets to practice when the drills are done. The army didn't say "OMFG BOXER SPECIAL TREATMENT ASAP!!1!!!1111" or any other such shit. And it's not like they made this JUST FOR BOXER, the military had special plans for progamers way before Boxer even announced he would be enlisting. H.O.T, Clon, and ChRh were there before he was and they're still gaming as well.

Theres a lot of uninformed ranting bullshit being spewed about the Korean military's introduction into the pro-scene. Is it unorthodox? absolutely, except for CISM (Conseil International du Sport Militaire) militaries in general do not focus much of their time on sports.

Before running your mouth about how unfair it is for boxer or any other pro-gamer to have "special" treatment, look at the motivations behind the military. By keeping a "good" guy image and putting itself in the spot light (i mean look most of us live anywhere from 200 to 6000 miles away and we are on about it) the Korean Military remains current and topical. There is little arguing that this is a psychological operation at its best. Big brass in the military would see an Air Force pro team as being "cool and trendy" and keeping in with the youngsters.

Do you think the military actually gives a shit about Starcraft or the pro-scene? absolutely not, they are in a numbers and recruiting game. And by the looks of things, they are playing it pretty well

Absolutly. I guess some guys are just jealous *g*
Switzerland has its own sport-military programm as far as i know. A hole hockey team did the same stuff as normal recruts but where able to practice. And Tom Lüthi (125ccm gp winner) did or will do the same thing, dunno. Of course, we cant compare high-performance sport with BW but it remains an image thing. Lets dont act naiv. Every country has its own programm to polish their military institutions. I've seen thoose commercials in canada and played those "join the us army" games. They all try to run with the youth. As if noone would take the oportunity to play games while you're in the army.

Its the same everywhere. Some jump more in the dirt others less. I've been in the army and i am damn proud that i joined a profession where i actually did something less stupid and learned stuff wich i could use later on in my job.

that upside down temple.. won't the gully's be even more troublesome than regular temple? like 12vs3 tvt how would the 3 prevent 12 from completely controlling the left side of his base w/o using most of his army? and the 9/6 gully is devestating looking. Boxer should be exciting to watch on this map ^^

Because he's not getting any special treatment at all, just as we have been told. Would they lie? He must be the best one there. I'm positive it has nothing to do with any publicity stunt the army is pulling.

I mean, think about it. If he's good at SC he probably stands out in other areas of life as well, like say the army. He's our idol so he logically must be a natural leader.

Yeah.

It'll be weird seeing him play again so soon after we've all said our goodbyes and come to accept the fact that he's "gone".

Plus he might be the oldest since the average age of ppl servicing is between 21-23.

hmm could it also be that he is "most likely" the oldest in his group since he put it off so long?

He probably was the oldest in his group....that wouldn't qualify him for being top of his course though. Despite the fact that hes a naturally good leader (hes lectured at the airforce academy on leadership) its a bit a fairy tale for the Korean military to add to his title "allstar super hero programmer tops his military course, fights for his country, plays for his military pro-team and.......becomes supreme allied commander defeating the north in a cataclysmic battle of epic proportions" :p
