Highly, Highly, Highly doubt it is effort. He was quite adamant about doing other things besides gaming, and last I heard he was attending university and doing quite well. There's a high possibility that he may play SC2 a little, but the time it takes to achieve such a high ranking on the ladder is something he both doesn't have and isn't willing to make.
On a more serious not, NEXExcrement sure has his shit together.
Effort is extremely skilled/talented. It's not that hard to learn sc2. Really, if you have a instructor, you need only a few weeks to get to top level. Mechanics and such can be learnt in a few days. Strategies and counters can be learnt in 2 weeks. Effort, on the other hand, has A-Class macro/micro. Don't underestimate a top tier progamer, who just won an OSL against Flash in Mai this year.

for op saying 저승사자 is effort, that's an old rumour that went around months ago
now ppl from playxp are saying 저승사자 is a id a certain team shares with its teammates
for the proof, 저승사자 is listed as a zerg but played terran at the last moment to get that high in ell

sad to see zerg down to 25% ~_~
ps i hope the effort rumours are true.

If Effort really does take up SC2 that will be amazing. I really want to see how a top-notch modern BW player would do in SC2, and Effort definitely fits the bill.

I'd say some one like Stork or Fantasy will sweep the SC2 scene clean if they switch over.
Like Nada and Sangho? Being a BW pro is not everything, really. We've seen all the BW B-teamers outclassing the A-teamers in SC2 - it's a different game.

sangho was an a-teamer on estro. nada hasn't been relevant for a few years. the only real a-teamers that've switched are MVP and guemchi, off the top of my head, and no matter how much of a WL bonjwa GC is they're nowhere near the caliber of stork or fantasy.

Good to see Tester doing well in the ladder lately.

Dude, really?
That's Like saying because someone plays soccer for Blackburn and not Arsenal then they aren't a real soccer player. Essentially, the dumbest, most ignorant thing you could say about pro sports.
Also, Sangho has a better BW record than MVP, and guemchi doesn't play. Clearly, you actually don't know what you are talking about and should probably think a little before you post.
That being said, you are correct (and I think a piece of my soul just died because I said that) in saying that none of the BW pros who transferred to SC2 are near the caliber of the superstars in BW currently. However, that's a point that has been discussed to death, and there is no reason to post it.

MVP had a worse overall record than SangHo, but MVP had been playing much better since the beginning of November of last year (roughly, sangho's last 6 months of play)

Nah, he tried to qualify but failed, therefore he isn't a real SC2 player. (just trying to stay on the stupid's level if you know what I'm saying )

let me restate my post since apparently it was too hard for you to understand: sangho and nada are not as good as fantasy and stork. it is useless to point to sangho/nada as examples of how bw b-teamers > bw a-teamers in starcraft 2 because they are both garbage "a-teamers." that is my refutation of the previous person's post, who directly compared nada/sangho to fantasy and stork, claiming the latter two would get raped in sc2 because "bw b teamers out class bw a teamers because it's a different game."

Can we assume Jinro's disappearance is due to the countless hours he would be spending with oGsMC for gsl? or something more sinister?

I'm sure he's just doing tons of customs. As I said he only had 5 ladder games in a month, but I would be surprised if that didn't start gonig up again soon due to his elimination from GSL. I wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't been playing much ladder even after he lost due to helping MC, though.

Not saying SangHo was as good as Stork or anything, but he had a good reason for falling off the map.
