Well with Sc2 vs BW and savior discussions banned what do we discuss next in the "Effort is back" thread? I can only think of ToSsGirL's plastic surgery. She said she had none and I believe her alright. Y'all need to google some makeup vids on YouTube. This magic turns u from a normal person into any kpop doll u want to become in a matter of minutes. With that out of the way I think this party is officially dead, thank god and opterown. Rip

Effort has been beasting the ZvTs and leasting the ZvPs I have seen him play on Afreeca so far.

but the current scene needs a ZvT Messiah (Killer/Zero, you still have time to make me eat my words!)

given more time i think effort will easily surpass killer/zero as best zerg on fish server. i dont think there will be any new comer doing better than them unless a certain Jaedong finally decide to return (which is probably never, and even if he does it will another year for him to get back into BW shape)

We'll see, the more popular and successful SSL/KSL are the more people will want to get into the scene.
If the scene stays more or less as big as it is now though, I agree no one will surpass those 3.

I am not sure if you are serious, but his mother died, that was the reason he retired (he wanted to spend time with her before the end, RIP)

Dude, I went to the Gangnam Proleague studio for CJ v SKT this summer, and on the last night, the CJ bus was majorly delayed, and all the CJ guys were just standing around at the entrance to the studio (SKT bounced fast to go eat a celebratory dinner), so I picked up the courage to approach the guys and ask for a photo.
Earlier-on, seeing Canata's proud surprise to discover I'd come from Switzerland to watch Starcraft, and that I remembered him, I'd learned the value of convincing ex-BW pros of your fandom legacy, so I addressed Hydra as "you win MSL" and EffOrt as "OSL Champion, against Lee Yong Ho too".
Overall, I think the experience reminded him when he was on top of the world (though he was putting forward surprisingly good SC2 results, it wasn't enough), so Hydra but particularly EffOrt were BEAMING afterwards. Skyhigh was looking sullen as usual. So was BByong, since I'd asked him to sign my "BBoying has best dance-moves" cheerful (currently residing in an honourable stack in my room).

Just think that the burden of his mother's ill-health was probably already heavy on him (I'd suspect his first semi-retirement was caused by the same sort of reason). All the best to CJ, and these guys, man, for having hamstringed their lives and careers simply to entertain us, I really hope they can be compensated and cared for. And I REALLY need to get around to blogging the rest of this stuff...

why is SNM so angry at savior? I can understand why you might not like him, but completely shutting him out is ridiculous. As if anyone is so mad at hwasin or anything.

Hwasin wasn't the one who bought people into it, Hwasin just threw a ro8 vs Kal with the "justification" that he doubtfully woulda won regardless, similar to upmagic who fixed a match in the STX cup, under the "justification" that it wasn't a kespa sancitoned match and hardly mattered.

People are mainly angry at the ringleaders (like savior or justin iirc), rather than the small time fixers who were easier to forgive.

I honestly just think that people feel more betrayed because Savior was a bonjwa and people had a lot of trust/respect for him.
