Well this was unexpected. I guess it's fair to say that Choya isn't exactly the most popular of the Korean players, but this should be a great experience for him. Props to FXO for this move.

I just hope he doesn't get trampled over by Boxer fans rushing to get autographs or something...

He'll certainly be a favorite to make it out of the open bracket, but not THE favorite with whitera in it .

Thanks FXO I love what your are doing for Esports.


Holy shit! I remember that match now, forgot who the protoss was though.

Damn that was crazy by Nestea xD

Edited out + Show Spoiler +
This is probably the only move from FXO that i have completely not understood. Calling Choya a top class player just seems wrong. Yes he is a good coach. But he will get absolutely stomped @ mlg and he should.
If korea's worst beats our best then were doing a lot of things wrong. gl to him and FXO.

My other thought is that FXO did want another coach for the Mental part of the game. If they brought a long choya for coaching and expertise then this would make complete sense too me.

Awesome job FXO! It seems like you guys never run out of money or good ways to spend it; I really hope more foreign teams start following your example and spread e-sports like you guys do!

It's ChoyafOu, the guy who cheat on the ladder, right ?

http://vespinegas.wordpress.com/2011/01/16/choyafou-cheats-ladder-system-gets-penalized/

TL let a thread about some cheater but not others ?


Are you aware that the flipping of a coin is a valid alternative to playing a game and is endorsed by MLG? Players regularly do this in the consolation rank-points matches. How is this different from rock-paper-scissors? Calling it cheating is laughable.

Are you serious? No wonder I couldn't find the replays of Naniwa vs Slush!


I sat behind Slush when he played those games o.0 it was the consolation matches that were coinflips random tidbit Terrans didn't lose a literal coinflip in Columbus. Coinflips imba?

A guy who's made it through Code B will easilly crush random NA Master/GM players without any problem.

Boss is sending Choya specifically because he has been a great friend to Boss and FXO while they are in Korea. It's a gesture of friendship and thanks. It has nothing to do with any of the other speculations, and isn't a "move".

Yeah, seriously. Although Rainbow didn't go through the recent code a qualifiers, he used to be code A and he is already #13 GM on NA ladder, and he is able to pull off crazy/troll strats such as making 5 bunkers to contain a protoss on 1 base and proceed to build 2 CCs and land them in the protoss's base to turn them into PFs... or like proxying a barracks on shakuras TvZ, lift the barracks into the low ground where there are rock-protected bases, to nuke at the edge of the zerg's main from the low ground...

Choya made through the Code A qualifier, twice.
Choya is top 20 KR ladder.
So yeah he probably could do pretty well on MLG..In terms of skill level he's probably much better than moon and most of the foreigners.

Good stuff, always nice to see good people be rewarded.

What an awesome move! Choya seems like a great person. I guessed that from when I saw him singing to himself while playing in the Super tournament. Hope he has a great time at MLG!

Wow I just can't say how completely wrong you are in this post, choya is not near one of Koreas worst...hes a professional player and a coach, and impressive feat in itself, I don't see him getting stomped at all, I think he has a very good chance making it out of the open bracket.

Sorry but I mean, your post just really makes a lot of wrong points towards Choya, The Korean scene and MLG.
