Major is Juan though...and apparently, the kid's dying to go to Korea. Maybe we'll have a similar situation in the future. Apparently sixjax let go of him or he left sixjax ... unless another team picks him up and provides him with the necessary funds (or unless he's got enough cash to make it there on his own), I don't think it'll happen anytime soon. EDIT: NOOOOOO, SQUIRTLE. How do you know he isn't in sixjax anymore? He is still on their roster on their website. http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/k40e5/sixjax_status_major_no_longer_on_sixjax/
Ahh thanks. I don't read reddit much, and I haven't seen this in the SC2 General section.

Wow that was some really insulting casting towards annyung (annyoung?).
His only mistake was not being able to keep his 4th base or get a 5th. Other than that he was playing really, really well in those engagements, considering the strength of the toss he's facing. It was a ballsy move to take the gold, but he held it (really impressive) and definitely got his money's worth from it, that DT/Zealot harass was the only reason he lost.
I'm kind of pissed at Doa (and Wolf, Doa mostly though) for constantly questioning every decision he made. They are really bad at analyzing zerg.
annyung fighting! you can do it next season!

annyung fighting! you can do it next season! Well, he did overmake corruptors; he went for a nice blind timing with hydras but it didn't work out as intended. His defense on gold didn't work well as he totally overmade lings. He lost his 4th and got denied retaking attempt, and he got infestor tech way too late. I'd say Won's play was way better that game.

Aren't Korean parents usually supportive of their children playing StarCraft or even becoming pros? No, thats a myth made by foreigners. There is an old old interview with Savior and Boxer where they talk about how progamers didn´t get much respect as a serious profession. I am sure its better than outside of Korea. Or maybe they are big fans of BW It's just rational thinking by parents. I would not let my son play 8 hours straight or move out to live with 15 others for the same purpose. I agree. I would be skeptical of their future. I would much rather my child get an education and a "real" job unless my son was Nestea. then I would totally let him game for 24 hours a day Your son wouldn't be Nestea if you don't let him practice. At the risk of derailing this into a parenting thread, I will say this: If your kid is really passionate about something, don't get in the way of it. The highest level of success comes from a high level of passion. You could force them to be a doctor/lawyer, but you can't force them to be passionate about being a doctor/lawyer. At best, they will be mediocre at it and happy about its perks. From a parenting stand point, yes it will be a success. But you should at least believe that whatever unorthodox thing a child wants to do, he/she can do it well and can do it better than everyone else. In most fields, that will give you just as much security and he/she will be much happier. Also, go w0n! Good point. But that may apply to sport or music, not playing games (yea only we nerds call it esport). Still, out of millions who play, there must be 400, 500 cases in which a)parents (hesitantly) support b)mature enough to decide on their own path c)doesnt give a damn about parents.
Kid like Shinystar probably doenst fall into any of those category but if he keeps on trying and gets some success, he will achieve point a or else, point c lol

How was his play good? Not getting hive tech until after protoss army is already maxed and overproducing corruptors is bad play. Not only that, but losing a hatch to dt's is inexcusable

How the hell did he place the bunker next to the hatchery?

annyung fighting! you can do it next season! Going Roach/Hydra/Corrupter all game vs P is pretty bad. He also scouted the DT shrine but lost his 4th to it. Not a great showing by him, and perfectly right for the casters to call on it.

Also never heard of ogs Illusion. Did he use a different nickname before?

Poor Monster. He did so good but then he prematurely burst by going for the kill. He could have had a severe economic lead and pounded Illusion in silly if he hadn't tried to muscle into the base.

Hahaha, maybe I worded it too strongly? If you have any corrections please do so, you (I won´t say probably because I think you know more) know more about this I´m only basing this on the interviews and posts I have read
