Thanks for the video update and the info. It was actually quite fascinating to watch the video. I am so accustomed to watching replays and streams that it is sort of weird watching a video of a match that is via camera.

But yeah, I didn't even know about torcH, so pretty interesting.

why does everyone gets so hyped up about a new player?

The people at the GSL offline were pretty damm bad, even TLO & Idra said themselves it was a piece of cake. Jinro was unlucky.

Torch is ranked 200 in blizzard's top200 list. With a not the best WL (if it matters to anyone reading).

Haven't seen any of his games but the fact that he's come out of nowhere and qualified, where players like Jinro failed, is impressive.

I used to play Team Fortress 2 with Torch (soldier/demoman) and Seltzer (medic, girl in that WCG show). Really cool guy, very calm, charming and quiet (at least from what I remember). I saw him play in the beta and I was amazed he was pretty decent at it. From an outsider's perspective he may not seem amazing but I have faith he'll get far in this game.

Still can't believe he has his own calling card though.

I'd never heard of Torch before that GSL vid. I'm an instant fan; he's quite well spoken, and managed to present himself as intelligent and well mannered.

Why are you asking questions with obvious answers?

Torch, despite not being a 'california gurl', melts quite a few popsicles. Keep track of him, he's going far.

Jinro had to play a top 10 Korean (rank wise) in the 2nd round. Torch had 2 byes and played the leader of the Werra team (who isn't that great) to qualify.

It'll be interesting to see how much of his qualification was skill and how much of it was luck in the groups. Since we don't know much about his exact skill level compared to top players, only time will tell. Still, foreigners hwaiting!


If he's the TorcH i played on the NA server then his TvT is pretty weak. Maybe he got some TvZ groupings or something. I was very surprised to see his name on the list.

This is a pretty awesome story. Some semi random qualifies in Korea, who also has a cute gf on wcg ultimate gamer and goes to RPI. i was under the impression there were no good sc players at rpi, I was here and never met them! pretty cool. goodlucky torch
