So that was the backflip.

Highlight of his career - losing to Reach in UZOO MSL. Good man.

I thought Freedom was on a 1 year hiatus? Not retired?

Right guy.

I think he had family issues he had to deal with, so he took a leave of absence from Samsung.

That is a shame, after Mingu joined eSTRO I personally hoped he would find some success there. : /

Looks like end of season in progaming is becoming like end of season in football. Except more players are retiring than switching teams. Will be interesting to see upcoming rosterchanges, perhaps some new talent from courage. Mingu was good, but missed some timing. Wasnt there a TL attack with him?
Live2Win is awesome. Happy new year scarabi!

Well, somebody has to retire every now and then so it's understandable that this time it strikes Mingu. Sad thing Goodfriend must go as well, I was hoping he'd come back stronger.

I still didn't get over Garimto retiring though, he looked so incredibly promising in his first few games, it was a shame that he decided to let go.

You might think about when everyone is wrong and you think you're right, maybe it's the other way around?

Goodfriend joined eSTRO, yes. Now he's retiring from there.

Duh. (do a search for IdrA's comments if you want proof)
