esports really needs a villain. There hasn't been a really good Korean villain in a looooong time. It's good for the game, makes it more fun

He made Eve cry. The whiteknighting is strong here.

It's not just that, as everyone loved IdrA for making Tossgirl cry.


he's just a guy that kills all the fun happiness and joy in the world.

flowers wither everywhere he walks.


He's killed many a fan favorites.

(Z)MVP.Sniper Do you want the darkest dark horse to win the championship, person-hopefully-reading-this-gigantic-article? This might put a jinx on him, but out of all the players that no one is expecting to get far, Sniper might be the player that surprises everyone and could actually win this entire tournament. Coming from the same team as GSL champion DongRaeGu, Sniper has sneakily been the player carrying MVP in online and offline team league tournaments. No longer is DRG the one carrying the load, but Sniper, his Zerg sidekick. Taking out Gumiho, Puzzle, and Ace, three former or current Code S players in his Up/Down group, he is coming into this season strong. If you're betting on this season and see Sniper as a heavy long shot, he might be the Seed or jjakji of this season.


I wrote this for the Season 4 preview. One season off.

So you cursed him last season. He could only win this one.

j/k nice prediction
I had Sniper ranked pretty high in my Top30 Korean ranking as well, but didnt expect him to win a GSL.

Butterfly effect. If Rain plays, the entire season plays out differently.


Considering he lost in Code A i don't know if we can make that statement with 100% confidence ;p

edit: yeah yeah i understand though butterfly effect, even if rain lost things could be different but with this logic we should blame a random kid in Africa for a ZvZ finals

Probably because he was actually charismatic.

If Sniper manages to make any sort of momentum from this win, I'll take back everything I ever said about him. That being said, right now he's literally the Jjakji of zerg.

Well he's not literally the jjakji of Zerg

Anyway, yeah. There's a load of funny people here who are making some quite amusing jokes about Sniper being this 'fan-favourite killer'. However for the people who are genuinely bashing the guy, lol.

Also his play style isn't very interesting. Just plays super standard every game.

He's no doubt a great player, but he doesn't really do anything that warrants me becoming a fan.

people are dumb, they were told to hate sniper so they're going to do it.

I like how everyone assumes he is going to go away just because they don't like him. I hope he pulls the impossible double tomorrow. it'd be pretty hard to dismiss that.


the impossible double? Are you referring to him winning IPL5? Cause that really is impossible, he already lost.


lol shit, you're right, I forgot. god damn it.

well. he did well, at least. ok, ok. I hope MVP starts him in GSTL and he all kills FXO.
