In particular, he is a huge fan/student of TY. Practicing in Korea obviously helps. Also, he saw the future with "Bogus, man." | ||

He was losing, unimpressive, desperate in the first half of years, no chance of making it to BlizzCon. And then, he received a wake up call. It was always some foreign tournament with several foreigners, and there, he has shined. And since that moment, he was winning everything. This year, he does not get to any foreign tournament, but this GSL vs World wild card luck is giving him the "wake up call" tournament chance. Additionally with an easy bracket for him. This isn't what happened at all in 2013 though. | ||
