This is sad.

A small part of Starcraft history. He mattered.

Very Sad. He was instrumental in forming my approach to zerg.

He wasn't a mechanical monster, but he was very smart.

There are many old replays of him on Lost temple. He was just behind Chojja as number 3 or 4 zerg in the world but his play was drop heavy and sometimes even 5+ places at once.

He was smart and young and talented.
Very sad.

May his family have support and his friends be well.
Cheers to a beautiful mind.
Very sad.

So sad, i remember watching so many of his reps. He was really underrated, always felt like he under-performed relative to his skill lvl. He would have accomplished way more if it wasn't for guys like YellOw and ChoJJa.

Yet another legend.. rip

RIP. I remember downloading a lot of Junwi replays and watching with friends because his ZvT was so incredibly strong. Really unfortunate news.

I have spent the last hour trying to remember the names of a few replays of his that were 30+ minute zvts.
I think there is an epic him v nada that deserves to be unearthed.


I will be going home sometime this month and I'll try and find the few games I played against him.

[Red]october if you are reading this... I doubt you remember me, but I appreciate the privilege of playing junwi, fakeyellow and nal_ra. You made a random nerds life feel full and important at a hard time. Thank you.

RIP. Very sad news :-( I remember Junwi and his strong Zerg play. One of my early inspirations for being a Zerg player, watched his reps alot. My condolences to his family.

Great player, and he will be missed. It says a lot that he was such a high level player in such a legendary era of BW.

RIP
