As we all know by now the Korean Air Force created a starcraft team, increasing the team number from 11 to 12, and also creating hope for all progamers that there is hope after enlisting.
Yesterday they held the official ceremony, and announced that their team will be named ACE (Airforce Challenge E-sports).
The team captain will be H.O.T-Forever (Kang Dogyung), and currently consists of CLon, ChRh, BoxeR, etc. On the 5th more progamers such as fOru, Rage, Qoo)Sunny will be added to the roster. Their coach will be Min Taewoong (I have no clue who that is).
As planned, they will participate in the 2007 Proleague that opens on the 14th.
Some pics of the ceremony:
The ACE team, with uniforms! (no more blue suits)

And of course, our beloved BoxeR. (with hair)

It was mentioned here, but thanks for the additional photos and info. Interesting that H.O.T is the captain. Is he older than boxer?
|
Yeah, I just stared at the extra photos  .
Thanks a lot L2W! :D

I believe he is older, yes.
Their uniforms aren't that good looking.
I think they should have gone for the space-captain look, since they could actually pull it off, being military men.

Boxer is the oldest one, HOT is a year or two younger. Well, compared to these new kids, they're all old, I guess.

wtf mumyung lost 100 pounds
|
holy shit that's gonna be my favorite pro team right now! :D
|
men, I loved H.O.T-Forever style back then, especially his lurker usage. His 10min ZvT games were art. Few lurkers, dig in - dig out, some lings covering them, slowly moving into T base -> GG ;-) Also that time I loved his hydra/lurker/drops ZvP. When I had enough YellOw's storm zerg muta/ling style I could always see art by H.O.T ;-) He was complete zerg then, strong in every matchup, only YellOw was beating him ZvZ that time. H.O.T vs T/P style was more effective than YellOw then. For me he is a legend too ;-)

ACE = AirForce challenge eSports? Wth o.o
Technically ACE can get any player they want from other teams (by forcing them to enrol early), yes?
|
Can't wait to see these guys in action!
|
boxer w/ hair!!! oh such beautiful hair...
|
I'm truely amazed by the myumyung's face o_O
He was really chubby and look at what he is now... Impressive.
Don't think the military service is easy...

they are a good promotional tool for the military, so playing starcraft is actually work
