The "kong" is a reference in finishing second that originated in BW with the zerg player Yellow. So as Jaedong is one character away from Jaekong (and l is next to k on most keyboards) it's a nice little detail to put in.

I think the word kong actually means bean or something, I'm not that good at Korean though.

Iaguz will take his group in first place and become the new God of Terran. After IEM Shanghai, he will join WCS Korea and then proceed to win it, the season finals AND the global finals.

You heard it here first! Spread the word!
There's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep trying till you run out of cake.

lol I sat there and stared at the Jaekong name for like a full minute before I figured out what it meant. I'm retarded, made me laugh when I finally did though. Even though it's a new game and all, I still kinda think it's weird to add the "Kong" title to someone that has had so many championships before. Meh, that's just me though.

I really don't like how they're perceiving jd as a silver surfer. It's not like he's never lost in 2 finals in a row before -_-"

How is a switch to HoTs which made Zerg no longer OP supposed to revitalize a Zerg player (DRG)?

Cuz DRG was a player who was one of the absolute best even when terran was unstoppable and he didn't need BL-infestor to win . And most zergs use ling-bane-muta vs t now, a style that drg was king of

New term detected "foreign-Koreans in the world".


Now I wait for next one, what could it be? "Foreign-foreigner"?
