my first strong impression of Artosis was four years ago, watching this exchange:

You are right I did get a 'free shot' at progaming because when I came to Korea the skill level among foreigners, whilst still having a huge gap between the skill level of koreans, was much closer to the koreans than modern day. I was indeed one of the top foreigners back then but I certainly wasn't the best. Now fast forward to modern day where the skill level of korean gamers is so fucking insane to a point where it is basically unattainable for non-koreans (if you think Draco got close to it you are ignorant, but he did get farther than any other non korean skill-wise imo). So here we have a korean community full of gamers so damn good and a non-korean community full of all the 4th rate newbies from the past when all the good players played. None of you have improved like the koreans. Your skill levels have stagnated and you have merely learned to copy some macro build orders invented by the new generations and learned to click faster (not you artosis ur the same as always, no offense..just a fact). Not only that, but this tournament doesn't even have the best foreign players from this day and age. It has a few good ones but the rest are 2nd and 3rd rate newbies even by today's foreigner standards. How exactly does winning a 16 man tournament full of trash players make you 'earn it' ?? You say this is going to make you earn it, whereas I got a 'free shot' by earning the respect of the whole Hexatron team and ElkY and Grrr (real progamers, who have a real sense of talent and skill, unlike you...who is a clueless newbie with a hopeless dream). Winning this tournament doesn't mean shit. It earns you nothing. It proves nothing. It only proves which one of the 2nd and 3rd rate newbies on the day of the tournament is playing the best and/or the luckiest. Whoever came up with this whole idea is doing you guys a huge favor giving you guys a chance at a little money and a chance at coming to Korea and having fun on a team. I know this is harsh and kind of mean seeing as how it is your dream to come to Korea and be a progamer. But get your facts straight. U blow. im a nice guy. i think every sc player who ever met me likes me. i try to help people out and have a good time. its a sad thing when a millionaire poker player in his 20's spends his free time stepping on my dreams and publicly degrading me. i just asked you on bnet to just leave me alone. to not talk to me or about me. if i have an "impossible" dream thats none of your business. its none of anyone's business. so what do you do? you come and make this post saying lots of negative shit about me. you can go around pretending that there is something special about all the old players or that all 300 korean progamers are "talented", and ill continue going around pretending that hard work will overcome innate ability. leave me alone now. a lot of respect and i'm super happy for you that you've gotten where you are!

i have an "impossible" dream thats none of your business. its none of anyone's business... and ill continue going around pretending that hard work will overcome innate ability. And look at where he is now. Thanks for never giving up Artosis. The community just wouldn't be the same without you.

Great, now I have to put that in my signature. Have to love how much heart and motivation he's had throughout the years to get this far. Congrats on getting into NASL.

whereas I got a 'free shot' by earning the respect of the whole Hexatron team and ElkY and Grrr (real progamers, who have a real sense of talent and skill, unlike you...who is a clueless newbie with a hopeless dream).
Those are some pretty rough things that Rekrul said. Kinda gross to be honest... Rekrul is fucking full of himself when he posted that.
Best of luck in NASL Artosis <3
