Reach can get some 1v1s, ACE gets a confidence boost, and more older players will be inclined to join... | ||

My belief that Reach stay a hero forever won't die even if he joins the army. He will still play and own some guys. I hope he will come back and still play and make us happy like he did in KTF. At least i can add some new pictures in new uniforms and stuff to my huge reach picture/video collection. However The pic of Reach in a KTF progaming shirt inside my head will always be my the pic of "the cool korean progamer" Thats how a perfect progamer should be. I hope you understand what i say. | ||

 YellOw is seriously considering joining the army as well, but has not made a final decision yet. ClouD from OGN Sparkyz is also rumored to join the ACE team. Samsung KHAN's 2v2 player, JiHyun is also rumored to be joining the ACE team.There's a rumor that 2v2 may be removed from PL next season (nothing is final), which is why JiHyun and various 2v2 specialists are thinking of joining the army early, since the removal of 2v2 means the ACE force will not want to select 2v2 specialists. | ||

Reach ftw see you back in SL's in 2.5 years (or not... *cough*sc2*cough*) It wasn't a rumor. It was a serious situation that is still a bit uncertain. The army people didn't like the idea of soldiers appearing on TV for the enjoyment of fans and wanted it gone... but the AirForce announced it's recruitment on their webpage 3 days ago, which is why all these progamers are suddenly jumping on board (incase it does go away soon) | ||

After not being in last place this season perhaps the team will be given more time to practice and more encouragement. They have a shot at being a real contender if they train hard enough! | ||

I would imagine that if you have fame/fortune now that you would want to hurry up and be recruited. Like seriously, sAvior in 2 years, will seriously not have a chance to join ACE if he keeps playing like he's playing. | ||

O YEAH~~~ It's gonna be sweet. I'm already squealing with joy at all the thoughts of Reach's PvZ losses and Controls... losses. I mean, ace is already one of the funnest teams to watch, this just really helps. I'm so glad there is a nursing home team for SC pros. And Oov and Kingdom were too proud and great to join while lesser contemporaries like Reach and Control... pwahwahahahahaha. VICTORY. | ||

You can delay your military service if you're in college, but you still have to serve at some point. That's why almost every progamer is taking some kind of online college course these days. | ||

They don't have to enjoy it. Everyone has to do it. Ace gets to select which players go to the Air Force. Anyway, this is good news for them considering Boxer's term is almost up. I don't think they should fold. | ||

Anyway, this is good news for them considering Boxer's term is almost up. I don't think they should fold. Isn't he asking why Air Force instead of Army / Navy or whatever alternatives? And I think the mandatory service should fold, so if you're Korean, could you vote against it? I think the "free world" has got your back. | ||

However, I don't know why, some weeks ago that decision was revoked and seems that ACE will live to fight one more day. For TL members who joined more recently: ---Reach aka Mantoss. Not much to say that hasn't been said in every KTF PL game. He is to Starcraft what Chuck Norris is to bare hand fighting and roundhouse kicking. ---Silent_Control aka Fashion Victim Cheeser. A terran who was always promising but never got to the next level. He had a huge girl fanbase and used to appear in his games with bandanas, fancy necklaces and stuff like that. He was also known for working his way to the semis of OSL almost entirely bunker rushing. The thing about this is that even knowing he was going to cheese you, it somehow seemed unstoppable, and many progamers complained about terran cheese being too hard to counter(that was at that time). He had this tag on him as an average player who could only work his way up the OSL by cheesing, but in the next OSL he played some great games without cheesing and still managed to get way up in the tournament, which gave him some respect, and it seemed like he was finally going to take it to next step, and become along with Nada, the terran combo that will bring succes to the newly sponsored P&C. However, he continued to underachieve and choke, and slowly he sinked into the void, and this is the fist news I have heard from him in a loooong time. ---Cloud aka the Giant Killer. Just one more terran of the huge terran breed of those times, who outstood for being able to win against every top player of the time. However, against lesser players against whom he was supposed to win easy, he was never able to bring his A-game, and ended being some fluke who somehow managed to beat some top pros. | ||
