This is a brief presentation of who BoxeR is and what he represents for the Starcraft community.

BoxeR is now ManofOneway in Starcraft 2, and after all the rumours around this character the confirmation was provided by Garimto, organizer of the famous "King of the Hill" tournament, followed by a shoutcast from Artosis of a match between ManodOneway and IdrA.

After getting hold of a replay made public from ManofOneway, i decide to share it with you all on the best quality possible with my resources. Was the best i could get with my research and hopefully more replays from BoxeR will start appearing shortly:

SlayerS_`BoxeR` -ManofOneway- (T) VS Asia (T)



Source Liquipedia -> Lim Yo-Hwan, born 4 September 1980, is one of the most successful progamers in the history of the game. As the most popular StarCraft player with a fan club of more than 600,000 members and a DVD compilation of his greatest games released in South Korea, he is widely regarded in e-Sports as an iconic figure. Because of his long dominance during the rise of StarCraft’s popularity in South Korea Lim earned the title of The Emperor within the StarCraft community.

[image loading]


Boxer first came to fame by dominating professional StarCraft while choosing to use the Terran race at a time when this was seen as a relatively weak choice in comparison to the other two StarCraft races. During this early time in his career he innovated heavily, creating many new strategies which are still used today, most notably making much more effective use of the Terran Dropship unit than had been achieved in the past. He also gained a reputation for being able to turn around matches against the odds and having excellent Micromanagement skills. In contrast, his weakness is thought to be his macromanagement, at least when compared to other top-level professional StarCraft players.

SlayerS_`BoxeR` - Best Highlights



(Video provided by VioletAK)

With the constant innovation he brought and still occasionally brings to the game, Boxer has had great influence in the development of modern playing styles, especially for Terran players. He is the all-time leader in games played and won. He is a two time Starleague champion, KPGA Tour champion, two time WCG champion, and also the former captain of SK Telecom T1, a team that was originally built around him with players he hand-picked. One of those players was iloveoov, a fellow Terran, that Boxer took under his wing and who would eventually become a two time OSL and three time MSL champion. His team has consistently been one of the most successful in the team leagues.

In August 2006 Lim announced at the MSL group draws that he had received his draft letter from the government, and would be entering the Air Force by the end of the year. He later said he would try his best to return after his 2 and a half years of service.

(Air Force ACE Team - BoxeR far right)

After Lim joined the Airforce he started putting his fame into work, after a month and a half an army progaming team was created, and BoxeR found some retired progamers who joined the army before him, including H.O.T-Forever, Clon, ChRh, fOru, Rage, Qoo)Sunny and MuMyung. Together they formed the first army progaming team ever. After 2 months the team was announced, ACE (Airforce Challenge E-sports) was official, Air Force ACE. ACE’s first team league was the Shinhan Bank Proleague 2007 and has played in every Proleague since.

In December 2008, when his mandatory military service ended, Boxer returned to his team SK Telecom T1 and is currently listed on the A-team’s roster.

Boxer is going to rock the SC2 community if he does indeed switch over. Good luck to this Starcraft God, and thanks for the great compilation of Boxer's games. I hope we get to see more SC1 pro gamers start playing SC2 in the future, and see huge growth in SC2's popularity in Korea and around the world.

Gee, I wonder why Artosis wouldn't give him XHydraX the replay.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

When he wins a GSL game and gets interviewed by Artosis I think I may be able to die happy.

sia (the other terran): hello yo-hwan hyung, hehe
boxer: ?, gg
sia: just pretended i knew you, gg

i guess boxer was either confused by someone pretending to know him or he was confused that his true identity was outed.

These OPs are very cool Escapist. You're doing a huge service for all of the SC players/fans who are new enough to only be familiar with SC2. History!

Probably because Idra doesn't want his replay to be made available, due to the upcoming GSL 2.

Agreed. Unfortunately this replay is awful for Boxer. Hopefully someone that loses to him would be willing to put up a replay.
