There are many names in BroodWar which were famous at a given time and disappeared.
Since I have taken several breaks, I never could follow what fate brought to those player to stay away from sc. Therefore, I am making this thread to fulfill my -as well as others- curiosity, and eventually edit it to make a list their whereabouts (Please, do not let them all be in poker stars dot net lol)
With no further ado, please help me answer the questions: Where are they now? Or what happened to them?
Advokate + Show Spoiler +Still playing under the name of A2.
Androide + Show Spoiler +
Blackman
Draco + Show Spoiler +
Elky + Show Spoiler +
Emlary + Show Spoiler +
Fayth + Show Spoiler +
FishEye + Show Spoiler +
FrozenArbiter + Show Spoiler +spends all his time admining the 2nd most poisonous forum on tl.net
Grrrr... + Show Spoiler +AKA GiYom, quit sc and is working somewhere in Korea. Some say he is selling ice cream; others, he may be running a hair saloon...
HellGhost
G5 + Show Spoiler +Still play but not competitively any more. G5 plays enough to keep in shape and plays CW's for EG. He is basically waiting for SC2. Life raped his SC. You never see him in any tournaments or any thing because he works full-time doing Animal Control and his weekend is Tuesday / Wednesday (all tourneys are on Saturday / Sundays) and on his off-days he goes to college / does life shit.
Legionnaire
MaMoN + Show Spoiler +people caught on to the fact that he only makes mass speedlings, so probably down in the D ranks of iccup. <3 mamon
Midian + Show Spoiler +
MistrZZZ
Nazgul + Show Spoiler +still around on here + liquidpoker. poker pro + tl.net owner
NoNy + Show Spoiler +Nony has a real life and a wonderful fiancée I hear, which many have speculated was the reason for his leaving Korea. He still posts here though, and I think he mentioned he will play SC2 competitively, though I can't cite that.
NooKs + Show Spoiler +you know this guy was a constant hacker right?
Oldy + Show Spoiler +Quit but if theres wcg this year hes most likely going to start playing again
Pat + Show Spoiler +PGT programmer. No one knows his whereabouts.
Physician + Show Spoiler +He is a doctor (really) and has kids. Just living his life I guess, still posts on sc forums too.
Satanik + Show Spoiler +Satanik is playing on Get. He has his off/on periods
Smuft + Show Spoiler +
SunCow + Show Spoiler +suncow tried to come back a year ago. he was still bad and cocky as hell so it didnt work out
Testie + Show Spoiler +Still reading every thread and posting from time to time to make sure people remember how good he thinks he was
Tsunami + Show Spoiler +Graduated College and disappeared around 2004-5. He was a math major at the time, i suspect he works with math now.
Who are they? mtm- + Show Spoiler +NaDa's High School friend (?)
Sonic_Be
Ares[SePiRoSe] + Show Spoiler +Sepirose is a practice partner for eStro
(Who are these guys?? They often appear in replays, usually owning pro gamers, but it is so hard to dig any info on them. Rumor saying mtm- was NaDa's master... That's all I got on him lol)
Thanks for all replies =)
PS 1: List is not exhaustive , I probably forgot some names. I probably added some names that should not be in this list, either because they are still active and Im just unaware, or because they simply did not do anything 'important'. =P
|
fisheye, midian, smuft, giyom, and fayth are active poker players, most of whom post at lp
|
i think nada was mtm-'s master.

There's a thread similar to this which was created a month or three back... I can't seem to find it though, if someone remembers where it's at post it please! I'm sure that has some answers you're looking for. I'm curious about a few unanswered ones myself!

It's spelled 'Guillame' not Giyom. He took that name up because that's how the Koreans pronounced it. By the way, I think Tsunami quit SC a loooong time ago and lives a normal life and such. I played with a year back and that's what he said anywho.

its spelled Guillaume not Guillame. And yes it is spelled Giyom since that was sometimes his ID when playing... because thats how koreans pronounced his last name.

MistrZZZ plays for ZZZ in BWCL 1a, we had a match vs them last week.
He kept trashtalking and lost the series, obviously horribly underestimating his enemy.
