hope to see him go farther in some big name tournaments did he win the 200$ wolf cup?? who is JF?
Now I usually don't roll up my sleeves and think "Now lets make a post.", but son you gotta get educated- especially since you're Canadian.
JF is IefNaij (his real name is Jian Fei, so most people call him JF), the legendary Canadian Broodwar player. This mother fuckin' baller won the TSL at a ridiculously young age, rolling a bunch of big named players with his sick reaver micro. Then he aired in a really good TeamLiquid Attack episode in the heyday of TLA (God I'm getting so nostalgic over all of this, TLA with Chill and Rage was seriously like the best stuff ever- for bonus lols go to the beginning of the second part for "heyheythisiscombatexrecordinganotherfpvodheyheythisiscombatexrecordinganotherfpvod, ect.)
Anyways, then he fucking cleaned up in what is probably my one of my favourite TL series, Liquibition, before getting taken out by the Chinese Zerg monster, F91. I think around that time he was at UofT, so you didn't see much of him for a while. Then TSL 2 rolls around, and bam out of the blue JF takes down Terran (lol <3 Artosis), and White-Ra before losing to NonY, taking an impressive fourth.
I think the last time I heard of him playing was at WCG Canada, where he demolished Kiwikaki, and Kiwi is widely regarded as being one of the best North American Protoss players. So yeah, JF's a fucking beast. I guess before he stopped playing he was around top 30ish (I think) in North America.
:S somewhat incoherent post, made me so nostalgic. I guess I became a big fan because right when I got into TL was around the time of TSL 1 when JF was winning right, left and center... good times...

Root, EG, Fnatic are very obviously top 3 US teams... actually it'd be neat to have top 3 EU teams (probably... mTw, mouz, Liquid) vs top 3 US teams in some kinda showmatch league!~
ya with maybe dignitas, atn, or rage

But seriously: TT1, JF, SLush, Kiwikaki, and Drewbie are all Canadian.

I guess it wasn't an official WCG event, it was just a side "test run" tourney held at the same time as WCG.

props to payam for being the sexiest toss out there <3
If you guys are wondering why you never see JF play, its because he hardly ever plays SC2. That being said, he is skilled enough to one day decide that he wants to win GSL, and will play for a week, move to korea and crush everyone who has been playing 60 games a day.
