I honestly can not wait to see what the future holds for this guy. HWAITING!!!

Holy Shat, He's already having a great season... I mean Leta & great...
Will this be the next Bisu? Will he gather as much fangirls? Probably not... girls don't dig afro's.
But either way, I'll SUPPORT!
AFROTOSS HWAITTING!! :D
|
Frotoss is better.
I like players who add some personality to the show so it will be nice following his career. I remember when people were always asking WHO IS THAT GUY just because of his hair. And I figured out that it was Paralyze but I didn't tell anybody.

Afrotoss fighting! Paralyze for bonjwa!
|
I really like him, I hope it's not just a fluke, like Type-b at the last Bacchus OSL.
Actually it can't be a fluke. The truth about Afrotoss :
+ Show Spoiler +In a recent interview of Bisu and Stork : DES= So after all this talk, we see that Bisu is deeply angered by PvT and Stork is deeply angered by PvZ.
Stork: It’s not really to that extent yet. (laughs)
Bisu: My motto is hard work!
DES= If the two of you became one player, that would be formidable.
Stork: We wouldn’t lose to anyone. Even if we had to play Flash. (laughs)
Bisu: I also feel the same way. Stork-hyung and I together would make the strongest Protoss. This gave SKT coach an awesome idea only our TL beloved baller would think of : Paralyze is not a real player. The afro and glasses are a disguise. When he has to face a Zerg, Bisu wears the afro wig and the glasses, when it's a PvT Best does. No wonder Paralyze destroyed both Great and Leta with ease. Additional evidence : SKT players got lasik (example : Best doesn't wear glasses anymore) Seriously, if you want to find a disguise that is so caricatural that people would think it can't be a disguise, could you do better than a korean with afro hair and big glasses ?
Afrotoss fighting !

I'd think someone has started with 4+ wins before too, or even if not, 100% winrate in itself is easily obtained for a moment by just winning your first game

endy is spot on. Bisutork fighting!

We need a new forum for fan clubs...
He is cool though

i wish people would stop trying to promote "frotoss" when "afrotoss" is already well established
afrotoss rolls off the tongue better and imo stands out a lot more as a nickname.
and to the guy saying girls don't dig afros, say that to this guy's fangirls. girls don't judge people solely on their hair. i think his hair is sick in a scene where everyone has the same freaking hairstyle.

Frotoss is gonna win everything 2010-2011

Haha, what? You guys only started paying attention to him a couple of days ago. You didn't even know he was a protoss until the qualifiers.
If you can say "Protoss" then you can say "Frotoss". I don't see how it could possibly get more natural than that.

he brings the P funk! to the P TOSS AFROTOSS FTW!

sign me up! I've never seen him play, but I don't mind supporting any protoss at this point

Put me down for this. I hope 爆炸头 (explosion head) becomes the unstoppable Bisu/Best archon (even if that conspiracy theory is bs)

Finaly an "official ____________ fanclub" thread that I can get behind. He's good, he is on my favorite team, his games are entertaining to watch, and he has an AFRO. Frotoss fighting!! I want in.

The moment i saw him i called him seth rogen toss :D
I'll join afrotoss' fanclub
|
Sign me up! It's my first membership in a "fanclub" and I totally stand behind this.
I have Afrotoss on my fantasy-team and called it "Afrotoss Worshippers". Nobody can stop the rise of the P-toss Funkmaster.
Do you think he will get some playing-time in PL now?

Why assume when you can check? Here's the stats on his 2nd game vs great.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/lX0wy.png)
(his stats are on the right)
I hope the OP does update soon...considering how little history he has right now, it should take relatively little work to include a comprehensive summary. It doesn't even have his real (Korean) name right now. There's only 4 official matches to list for his match history, although we could dig up his dream league/offline prelim results too, since there's so little to work with right now.
I guess I'll do some of the legwork.

why bring some other player into our thread?
the simple answer to why "their" is no fanclub for turn is because nobody's stepped up to make one for him - you do it!

+ Show Spoiler [OSL spoilers, beware] +so tomorrow night, Afrotoss is playing Hyuk. Also in that group Kal beat Flash!!! This pretty much means that Kal is guaranteed a spot in the Ro8, with Flash, Paralyze, and Hyuk for the last spot. But the thing is, Flash is pretty much the favorite over these two...so basically the loser of Paralyze v. Hyuk = elimination, right?

I hope that Paralyze can make his way through the OSL Ro16 somehow...but now that he's lost to Hyuk I honestly don't know. PREPARE A GODLY CHEESE BUILD VS FLASH!!!

Nah, we had the Canata fan café much earlier, but yes Afrotoss is one of the first BW player fan club in this section of the forum.
Actually what's surprising is not how old is this fan club, but how long it took before we had a Bisu fan club :O

"Hey Paralyze. soO just stated that him and you are close friends. Is that true?"

"Soo"
"soO and I?"
"Negative"
"We're not that close.!!"

Oh, Paralyze This guy is so friendly and fun!
Spent pretty much the entire day of yesterday with him and Suppy, had a bit of a language barrier but he still tries, and understands quite a bit of basic english e.g. "protoss versus terran, who good?" stuff like that. He said he has no problem vs terran or protoss but he struggles nowadays vs zerg.
Then he talked to his coach and gave us access to the SK Telecom Team House, and it was great visiting where the guys are training!
Then we went to some arcade, and in the evening to a karaoke place and i must say that Paralyze sings really good!
