You'll be missed, bud. I don't believe in miracles either. It's great to see that he was a realist but didn't let his condition hold him back from pursuing his goals in life. There is something to be said for that. | ||

Evidently, this makes cases such as Space's all the more tragic, shattering any and every hopeful illusion of some supreme morality governing the universe. It's sad that we must be reminded so often that anyone, no matter how ardent or passionate or hardworking or kind can pass away at any time or be stricken by one incurable, terminal condition or another. Nevertheless, even as someone who has not followed the WC3 scene a great deal, Space's tragedy has gotten to me on a personal level, and I will check out some of his games momentarily. I think what's important is to keep the memory of him, not of his affliction but of his personality and games, alive; let it not be forgotten. It's the least we could do... what a great posting, had to bold it RIP Space, one of the few real fighters in an evil world, may your mighty soul finds freedom apart from your body, in the light of heaven. | ||

I remember towards the end of Warcraft 3's competitive lifetime, somebody did an interview with Space, and at that point, he said that it was painful for him to practice and difficult to maintain a competitive level of play. Yet, he still tried his best which speaks volume that the game wasn't an escape for him as much as it's his stage to show that despite his affliction that he was able to be not only normal but to be better than anyone else. Nobody would have faulted him for giving up at that point, but he didn't and that's what I'll always remember. For those of you who didn't follow Warcraft 3, Space played what many considered to be the weakest of the 4 races, Undead. If my memory serves me correctly, Undead has never won a major tournament in the game's competitive lifetime. So take that into consideration if some of you decide to watch his old matches. | ||

Sweet won a WEG, and some other stuff, Lucifer and FoV won some stuff like ESWC 2004 or 2005 very early on, but yea overall Undead was the weakest by far, major titles were bare in quantity and from 2008 some top Undeads like FoV and Sweet (MaDFroG even earlier) already decided to retire due to lack of matchup balance long BEFORE Space even considered about giving up. Space played for his family, his friends, his team and for his life, for honor and respect - an unique example and role model for global eSports | ||

Unfortunately, Blizzard had no long-term interest in balancing the game, and practically left it to die. | ||
