I follow the CS scene non-stop since 2005, the european CS scene has almost every single pro from 2006 till now still playing, the scene is still huge outside the US.
About the oldies, I know cogu retired to play football soccer in Qatar but returned to brazil to play the CGS for Rio Siniestro, then joined Mibr and after a losing streak he retired together with his pal KIKOOO. Johnny R is working for the ESL (or Steelseries, can't remember which exactly). Ola 'Element' Moum retired after an unexpected third place on the WCG 2008, to me this guy was the CS dream made flesh. XeqtR tried to go pro in DotA, played for mouz around 2007, saw him as stand-in but that didn't work out. Shaguar is now a (american) football commentator. Saw method in the ESEA LAN finals the last 2 years. Volcano is playing Source for Team Dynamic. bsl was europe's coach in the match USA vs Europe in IEM New York. sunman is playing Source for 3DMAX. fRoD and storm keep playing 1.6 they are in CheckSix.zet returned to 1.6 after his run with coL on the CGS, his last title was Dreamhack Summer with MYM, he's retired. walle chose to retire after getting kicked by SK. Tentpole is going to the gym very often, the same with jaegarn. Heaton, ahl, potti, spawn and fisker joined zowie, asides from the EC and AM mice series they developed a kick-ass monitor for BenQ (120hz, 2ms, full HD with features for fps gaming). da_bears is working for ESEA, he's still cool as fuck. Snajdan made some top 3/4 sweden teams the last couple of years, he's still got his in-game leader skills, he's probably inactive atm. prb and real keep playing gathers and for norway in the clanbase nations cup. Can't remember more old CS stars :D
I'm really impressed with so many people here knowing about old CS pros. TL.net should open a CS section!

You just brought up so many names from my teenage CS days. Shit, I had to watch the old zex and eol movies. I looked up shaguar, according to his twitter he is a poker pro now though.
