Hmmm... Well, I figured it was going to be something hugely massive, but good news none the less.

oh man that actually happened?
i am glad he is coming back even if i am not his biggest fan; the scene felt like it had a hole when he left
it will be crazy good for hite to have both effort and hydra if effort can return to his previous level of play

This made me really happy to see. I don't like very many Zergs but I absolutely love Effort. I just hope he can play at the level he was before he left, he's got a lot of catching up to do.

Wow, even though a lot of people said it I'm still surprised. I hope he didn't come back because school wasn't working out for him.

Either way, this is awesome news
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt
