cause there was a thread awhile ago that had progamer pokemon look-a-likes. And a pic of kwanro looked scarily similar to pikachu. Just like Hiya looks like a magikarp

If I may ask, why is Kwanro Pikachu? I am confused...

Kwanro: I don’t really have much to film…

Iris: Now, attack! Pikachu!

Iris: I’ll stoop down~ get up

Kwanro: I don’t want to get full body shots

Hey man don't hate on Calm, it's not his fault he doesn't have a good opponent to play against : /
Dude goes undefeated except one game to Jaedong and you're going to disregard the title he could win just cause the finals are going to be boring (and one sided)?

Was a nice read, I'm not as pumped as for JD vs Yarnc but I rly would like to see Calm become an ace player.
Would be so exciting in the PL, STX now with other stuff then depth, KTF if Luxury, ForGG and Violet stops slumping, OZ if JD stays and SKT1 now that Hyuk is good @ hyuking other people for once, CJ Entus with Kwanro doing good as well, eStro started to look less sucky (in the STX Masters) and finally Khan with Stork looking to come out of his slump.

I think it's a Korean thing that TL just caught onto, same thing with the Magikarp with Hiya. The reason might be due to them looking like their pokemon but I don't think TL started these nicks. There are Korean fan signs of it + Show Spoiler +

this is from the MSL finals

and I seriously doubt TL is influencing the Korean community.
