The following is Korean top 10:

Notice that #1 is ogs.fruitvender with random! #2 Fantaprime has proven to be julyzerg, #3 is makaprime.
It is noticeable the difference between KR and EU/US servers,where only 1 protoss exists in KR top 10, but protoss and terran dominates EU/US ladder.

The following is total gobal rank:

It doesn't work like that anymore. You can still use the nick, I could be IdrA if I wanted to but would have a different identifier.

If that's really him and he didn't play beta, well... hats off.

But as far as we know, he could have played and tell no one.

He probably just started playing after release.

I think its very much possible its July, not like STX needs him for BW.

I`m pretty sure hes not retired but his last Proleague appearance was well over a year ago, he`s probably sort of a captain assistant like Boxer.

edit: Picture very slightly related:

If you're going to claim that it's JulyZerg please give us a link so we can check for ourselves. And the only reason he's ranked so high is because he played a ridiculous amount of games
I think esports is pretty nice.

I hope he figures out how to muta micro in SC2 , because microing mutas now to harras is a pain in the ass compared to BW .

I wanted July to still bust some ass in BW , but i guess switching to SC2 is better then retireing , at least i will have someone to root for in SC2 proscene .

I want to see July play. Though I doubt he will play any differently than any other korean SC2 players. Maybe he will be going to GSL.

Oh god yes. One of the few names I latched on to when I first learned of the BW scene is now in SC2. Fuck. Yes. Too Bad Nal_Ra is going to the army, or I'd be hoping he did too, just so everything comes full circle. (Reach is too manly for SC2, though, so I leave him out of my personal trifecta of fanboy targets D

How did you know he is retired i couldn't have missed such a big news ? I think he has the same status as Idra . He is a progamer for STX , but he plays SC2 .

If i remember right, there was a post about it. You just missed it or then i've been dreaming.

as liquipedia says: "July has been off the A-team of STX SouL since 2009, and has not played a proleague game since May 2009.". And since his in Prime (which is SC2 clan?) i don't think hes in any b-team of STX.

Also, he should show up to every live event with his golden mouse sitting next to him at all times, with a massively smug look on his face.

Seems pretty much like a retirement to me, and there was speculations about it. And im talking about bw retirement, not e-sports overall.

This thread says he is removed from the rooster in april this year . He also played offline qualifiers for OSL and MSL so he hasn't retired .

what does having the prime clan tag have anything to do with him not being on stx?
its not like they're a professional organization like stx
its like putting the importance of his z-zone tag above his professional sponsorship

Yeah, all i knew he was removed from the A-Team. I just assumed that if he haven't been playing, he just might've retired or taking a long break. But hopely hes back now in SC2.

I really hope it's him. I'd love to see him do well again. He's been such a strong force in BW over so many years.

I wonder if he's planning on playing this "professionally", if such a thing still exists in the GSL.

I loved JulyZerg's play style. I think he was (one of) the first progamers I knew and followed. Before I just played starcraft.

Can we get some other AKAs revealed? Who are the other top USA players, ranked after TT1 like 'HuK,' 'Dayvie,' and 'KiwiKaki'

IdrA isn't ranked anywhere in here? I thought he was playing a lot of SC2 in korea these days.

the full-time korean gamers will get better at it once sc2 goes mainstream and leave everyone else behind.

what we have yet to see are plays that are refined up to the last second that would give rise to 'core' timings of strong strategies.

Ladder game is not really important for pro level gamers in korea anyway. They don't have to play on ladder to play with good players, actually just playing with their teammates sounds more efficient to improve their skill. Just notice that Tester is not on the list, who is considered to be to top player in korea.

My favorite player in the history of BW. Seeing as he doens't make nearly as many appearances as he used to, it would be great to see him dominate SC2.

July won an OSL 2 years ago. He's not THAT old school ffs. He's proven himself to be one of the best Bo5 players in the game.

Cool randoms on the ladder a bunch; he was playing "random" in early May, definitely. He just picks Zerg for tournaments.

Anyhow, it's not surprising that JulyZerg would top the ladder after only playing apparently a few weeks. How is UpMagic and Sangho doing? I know UpMagic probably won't be able to compete in the GSL, but Sangho is probably pretty psyched for it, right?

Also, I loled a bit at the Chinese site being surprised that there are only two zergs in the top ten in North America, with three Protoss at the top (and Dayvie as random). In Korea, it's Protoss that's kind of the weak race, with just one slot in the top 10.

Also, it really is just Prime vs. oGs now. The top ten has 4 oGs members, 5 Prime members, and one member of the "Jung" clan.

Replay was fun to watch.

+ Show Spoiler +

330+ APM - check
Hyper agression - check
Mutas - check

Seem like it could definitely be July. I can't believe he lost though, he was doing very well until the Terran ditched the Thors/Blue Hellions for more Tanks and Marauders. July had stopped making banelings in favor of infestors, and never really stopped with the Roaches/Mutas.

Nice seeing no queens above 30ish energy until late game. One thing I noticed was that July didn't seem too proactive about spreading creep, and was completely comfortable fighting off it with roaches/slings/blings. He never once hit 200 supply either. Very different from Idra style play, but if someone was going to figure out how to be aggressive as Zerg in SC2 it was bound to be July.

Shark discovered it, July revolutionized it.

I find it somewhat hard to believe its July, mainly because.. wouldn't he be in oGs? Prime is old WC3 players, while oGs is old SC progamers. If it is July tho, its great to see. It gives us (the fans) an opportunity to see the older generation of players that can't really keep up anymore in action. Hope we have more concrete information soon.

About the replay
+ Show Spoiler +
It was a extreme agressive low eco build for those positions on metalo wich i found really strange. Also no scout and no zergling speed and straight roaches into t2 without expo.
I dont know if i really like the build that much but he survived well vs the first metalpush, wich is good.

He would have needed burrowed infestors and prolly overlord drops vs the tankheavy pushes in lategame. Sick how he lost that game. But i think attacking the planetary was simply a mistake. He prolly needs alot more practise.
IF he started to play sc2 at release that would be a big accomplishment to be already that good!

I find it comical that people give Julyzerg props for playing just afew weeks with a horrible record, yet when MaDFRoG only started since phase 2 beta and has a GOOD record and top 10, he gets bashed?

sure, EU may be easier than KR, but considering Madfrog is dominating pretty hard on the ladder in just afew weeks, yet people still consider him not "worthy" of showmatches.. its pretty pathetic.

It doesn't work like that anymore. You can still use the nick, I could be IdrA if I wanted to but would have a different identifier.

It mainly has to do with StarCraft elitism. July was/is a BW pro and legend, so people (especially on TL) idolize him, so you're seeing a lot of his fanboys coming out (no offense guys). While MaDFroG on the other hand, played BW and transitioned to WC3 and was a top player in WC3 for a few years before he retired and essentially disappeared for a number of years. Those who played/followed WC3 know who he is and have a similar level of respect, but in most cases (esp. on TL) WC3 is seen as an inferior RTS in comparison to BW. Thus, those who don't recognize WC3, don't recognize MaDFroG.

It was just a super biased cloud who said that.. Madfrog is already one of the best zergs out there and hes incredibly good imo.

It mainly has to do with StarCraft elitism. July was/is a BW pro and legend, so people (especially on TL) idolize him, so you're seeing a lot of his fanboys coming out (no offense guys). While MaDFroG on the other hand, played BW and transitioned to WC3 and was a top player in WC3 for a few years before he retired and essentially disappeared for a number of years. Those who played/followed WC3 know who he is and have a similar level of respect, but in most cases (esp. on TL) WC3 is seen as an inferior RTS in comparison to BW. Thus, those who don't recognize WC3, don't recognize MaDFroG.



JulyZerg is more baller than MadFrog (My claim).

Why
1. People who have a golden mouse
- JulyZerg

2. People who don't have a golden mouse
- MadFrog

Therefore, JulyZerg is more baller

:D

Madfrog is still baller though.

Julyzerg is the most successful player in the most prestigious tournament in the most successful professional rts scene.

so, yeah
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

July is a SC1 legend, and we are on a Starcraft forum.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

FantaPrime's low win percentage is probably because he really seems to have just started playing soon after release (his game with Garimto)

So, JulyZerg's 2v2 partner is called "LJY". Any ideas?

July haz golden mouse. Revolutionized a way Zerg was played to this day.

Madfrog played WC3.

:D

That said, they're still both great players.

Dayvie isn't David Kim. I thought this has been discussed before.

Wait...he isn't? It's been discussed before? Really?

All i remember was that dayvie was indeed david kim (at least in beta), and CGM saying that he, KHB, and david kim may not be playing SC2 competitively/professionally due to conflicts of interest. They never said they wouldn't play it period :\

I've seen much more people saying he is David Kim than people saying he isn't. That said, I have no idea if it actually has been proven or debunked. But a quick search found this post:

If anyone is still interested. I saw David Kim play in some games tonight at the Fountain Valley Fry's Midnight release. In those games his name was "dayvie" and he was a random player. I think this all but confirms that dayvie in the ladder is definitely him.

He laddered under the name "Limper" in beta on the Korean server. Presumably, he's laddering on a different name than IdrA still, though not "Limper". I'd guess he's "Flutter", the current #25 on Korea.

Korean one is too hard for him. That or he wants to beat his rivals, play american tournaments, etc.

On topic, I hope we see alot from July, Hope Korea does alot more tournaments!!

Isn't it obvious he has access to both servers? Just look at the number of games he has played on the US server, it's under 200. He is just smurfing on the Korean server for a reason or another, we need an SC2 Romad here to find out his aka. imo.

July is probably one of the first in the wave of ex-progamers and B-teamers to start turning towards the new game. GSL is rivaling the bw tournaments pretty hard when it comes to prize money and how much comparatively easier it is to win a GSL than an OSL.

Yeah:

We are now proud to anounce here at mymym.com in exclusivity that the "Gargoyle Master" is back. He is playing Starcraft 2 as Zerg since the start of the beta under the nickname "UnknownArt".

Woah woah hold up cool is randoming? Thats great for him, but hes in my top 3 zerg as of right now. He should be playing that exclusively to figure out zvt Id like to hear some thoughts from him about why hes randoming instead of maing z on the ladders.

Nonetheless #1 as random is impressive.

He might just play random to get better. Naturally you get better with your own race the more you understand the other two. I'd bet he'll play his standard race when he plays tournaments.

Seem like it could definitely be July. I can't believe he lost though, he was doing very well until the Terran ditched the Thors/Blue Hellions for more Tanks and Marauders. July had stopped making banelings in favor of infestors, and never really stopped with the Roaches/Mutas.

Nice seeing no queens above 30ish energy until late game. One thing I noticed was that July didn't seem too proactive about spreading creep, and was completely comfortable fighting off it with roaches/slings/blings. He never once hit 200 supply either. Very different from Idra style play, but if someone was going to figure out how to be aggressive as Zerg in SC2 it was bound to be July.


No creep highway was...odd, who doesn't want free vision and speed boost ? I doubt their BOs are so tight they can't spare an extra queen for tumors

why am I supposed to believe that this is july actually playing? becuase he's a good korean zerg with high APM?

Because someone got in touch with a Prime coach and he said it was, hardly 100% fact but its not that unlikely to be fair.

Beautiful Zerg play with taking complete map control and taking every other base on the map, then Terran got bored and selected his units and moved them out, they just rolled over the Zerg.
