Lee Sung Eun: King of Ceremonies
A Common Scenario
The crowd roars as the letters "GG" flash- across the screen. Yet another victory for , the flamboyant terran of Samsung KHAN. Victory is no stranger to player Lee Sung Eun, and a new victory means only one thing. A new ceremony. Sung Eun bolts out of his booth for a victory lap around the stage. KHAN fans go crazy, and the fans of the opposing team hang their heads in shame.

Lee Sung Eun: King of Ceremonies
Sung Eun's ceremonies are full of energy, and typically involve some sort of ridiculous dance. The dance in some cases is more humiliating to Sung Eun than the player defeated, however his recent ceremonies have been much more aggresive via crotch-thrusts and rice throwing.

4000 miles away, there is yet another familiar scene. A young man, a foreign fan is snarling in anger. "I can't believe this debacle.", "
firebathero is such a showboater!" he proclaims. Within minutes the 
sAviOr fanboys come out in droves on teamliquid to complain about the flamboyance of the young terran. "He has no respect!", "Starcraft isn't about that..." they say, their anger creating a stark dichotomy to the laughter in Seoul, Korea at that very moment.![[image loading]](http://www.mymym.com/gfx/firebathero_1.jpg)
A Sense of Purpose
Not only do progamers live to master the game, but also to bring entertainment to the fans. Rivalries between players (
BoxeR and YellOw come to mind), flamboyant ceremonies, and trash-talk fuel the fire of fan loyalty and contribute largely to the sustenance of StarCraft as an e-sport. Love him or hate him, firebathero is a crucial element in all of this. He is the personality, the face, the Rock Star of StarCraft. + Show Spoiler +
Lee Sung Eun: Comedian
Lee Sung Eun's sense of humor is second to none in the world of Brood War. In these episodes of B.Net Attack he demonstrates clear confidence as well as an attitude that is in stark contrast to the personalities of other players, whom are as interesting as rocks.

Because of this element, people sometimes forget the brilliance of his play. That he can be equally entertaining in the game, as he is out of the game. One could hardly forget his hour long TvZ with
sAviOr, ending in an epic battlecruiser push that won him the game. But will he be remembered for his brilliant plays? Or his arguably brilliant ceremonies? He will be remembered for the controversy, the bm plays and cute micro tricks, the ceremonies and trash-talking. Lee Sung Eun personifies all the personality that exists in StarCraft. He has it all. + Show Spoiler +
Lee Sung Eun: Progamer
firebathero's game against 
Tempest showcases his newfound ability in TvP. He demonstrates sharp mechanics, and brilliant decision making throughout the game, while maintaining his cheeky personality even in his play.
firebathero appears to be simply the bane of sAviOr's existence, and this game proves it. firebathero trades off advantages with one of the strongest players on earth, and in the end overcomes the beast with a tested and true battlecruiser push. Not only a great game of Sung Eun's, but of StarCraft in general.

Brilliance in Flamboyance
While the foreign community (and
sAviOr) may not appreciate his sense of humor, not enough credit is given to his contribution to e-sports. Lee Sung Eun is a baller and a rock star. He has the skill, the arrogance, the personality, and the controversy required to attain the Rock star status. Most importantly he personifies what has kept StarCraft alive in e-sports for so long. Fun. Flamboyant comedian or serious player; whatever you see him as it is undeniable that
firebathero keeps things entertaining. Even if you harbor the most intense hatred for Sung Eun imaginable, the drama keeps the scene alive. This is the man and the brilliant mind that keeps a scene that gets more and more boring every year turning on its side every now and then. This, is a Rock Star.![[image loading]](http://nevergg.pathological-idiot.net/images/bio/firebathero01.jpg)
