Starcraft: Brood War legend Lim Yo Hwan "Boxer" qualified for the Ro64 last night under the ID "Manofoneway". Check out short playing videos, the Day 1 qualifiers thread, the Day 2 qualifiers thread, and the full list of qualified players (thanks motbob). Another famous Brood War legend winner July (under "Fantaprime") unfortunately failed to qualify.

Q: Your feelings on qualifying for Ro64?
A: I haven't felt like this for a long time, so I'm feeling delighted. I'm happy because I get to see my fans again in the Ro64, only thing left is giving it my all.

Q: It looked like you prepared a lot for today's matches. Were the strategies prepared?
A: It was the qualifiers so I didn't have specific strategies prepared. I just reacted depending on the situation. The opponent's strategy was a late game strategy so I thought bunker rush would work. Also even I failed, it is possible to salvage the bunker so I did what I wanted.

Q: Until you played Starcraft 2 (guessing he's asking what boxer did just before/during the qualifiers)
A: I was able to meet long-time fans and fans that I was unable to see for a long time. Of course my girlfriend Kim Ga Yun supported me a lot. If I needed something she immediately find/get it for me and this helped me concentrate on my matches.
Also I had a lot of peers who helped me and gave me some advices.

Boxer's list of match was partial

unearned wins at twice

and played with Silver class players

an orgerniging of GSL hoped that Boxer get through the preliminaries

so partial match program was made for Boxer

he qulified of GSL only 3game wins while others played has 6games

and level of Boxer's group was very low~

but i loved it

all of korean have waited for Boxer's game

he's game is very different the others...

I expect to GSL season2 +_+

Boxer will be Champ!

ps. my english is very foolish

A historical date for a historical person.

Sad face for July. We will mourn his demise.

So did July really play Terran? And what happened to NaDa? Did he play?

So excited for BoxeR though.
