Yeah, he was definitely one of the top protosses during the bleak era for protoss mid/late 2011. Unfortunately, he just didn't manage to really break through in individual leagues or foreign events. And now, there are an entire batch of new (and some old) protosses coming through Creator, Seed, PartinG, Squirtle, Alicia, First, Yonghwa + Kespa. It must be pretty demoralizing.

We don't know anything beyond that he gave up his Code A spot and was quoted by a teammate in a winners' interview as saying he was on the verge of quitting altogether. Yeah he forfeited this season because of "personal reasons", so anyone's guess is as good as mine x_x Really hope he didn't retire though.. Eehh, I knew that much, thought something got revealed since. "Personal reasons" never sounds good, though Is he currently participating in any other tournament? It'd be a real shame for him to not to take on this new challenge, he was one of my faves besides PartinGGGUu

I guess we have to wait and see if he's on Slayers' GSTL roster

Seed, MC, Squirtle, Parting, By.Sun and Creator/HerO/Puzzle/somanyprotoss are probably the 6 right now.

Well on a good day he's better then almost anyone. Thing is that his good days are usually not that well timed, and he ends up just falling short when he really needs it. x_x

Can't really include him until he becomes a Code S mainstay though, or makes it to Ro8 or something. TSL4 was big for him though, that's why he should be top6. Just needs to nail down that Code S spot.

The only thing he lacks to be near the top of the protoss pile is to stay in Code S. Seed and MC are champs and stay in Code S more often than not. Squirtle and Parting often place high. By.Sun gets in because he is the best Kespa player and is in Ro16 this season. If Creator can get back into Code S and stay there then he is without question one of the best.

Oh man Ssak.
Game 1 Vampire tried everything he could to pull out a classic ESF vs Kespa choke with that weird build (3 base + 2 rangeless colossus + research storm but make no templar) and then he completely StarEagled his advantage anyway.
Then game 2's 1/1/1 was up their with the worst in history ><
