That's pretty nice though, saw this game live. Nice to see more ex BW progamers playing SC2. Hopefully he's going to do well!

In terms of absolute skill, ForGG will probably be the best ex-BW pro in SC2.

No, he wasn't S-Class but he was clearly an A-class player and you can barely say that about MVP. From 2008-his retirement, ForGG was something like 57% and even his 2010 wasn't that bad. His final Proleague got ugly, but if you look at his PL and MSL performances from earlier in the year, he was still an above average player.

I'm so surprised that Sangho actually had a better PL record than forgg in the last proleague season they played. Still, forgg was a much better player overall.

The 2nd bw A-teamer (after immvp) to join sc2. Assuming he joins of course.


July, NaDa, SangHo. That's not even all of them. MVP was most active of them but definately not the only one.
Also SangHo was active too. He just was on a small pause because of the scandal (he wasn't involved but it wasn't clear from the beginning)

He said A-teamer.

WOW that's huge news, I'm really excited to see if he will come out publicly. Either way, I hope he stays around SC2.

It seems a little weird that he'd respond to the ID "fOrGG" since he hadn't used it in around four years. Unless he's aware of how the foreign community referred to him, of course.


What do you mean its weird? If you called Jinro FrozenArbiter its not like he'd be like "Wtf whos dat?" or called Tyler Nony.

I meant that he barely ever used that ID. Even in his games from 2006, he used the ID Never_V_. He had a necklace that said Never, and his Korean fans used "Never_V_" in their cheerfuls and other fan art for years. I don't think he's even ever used "fOrGG" in a televised game.

Korean progamers are known and called by their real names by their fans and the commentators, and for some gamers, their in-game IDs are almost meaningless (HoGiL being "hite zerg", for example) because they aren't even considered nicknames.

Aside from that, most of the progamers are unaware of any attention they receive from foreigners, who have the otherwise strange practice of knowing and referring to progamers by their game IDs for simplicity. In cases like these, those IDs are even more than a little obsolete. For someone that has either been called Park Ji Soo or Never_V_ or, hell, Time Attacker, by everyone he has ever known for the last four or five years, I thought it would at least give them a little pause.

You're right, I skipped out on them because they weren't very active, sorry.


July and Nada were both B-teamers at the time of their switch. NaDa made occasional appearances on the A-time, but rarely. July never did. SangHo was an incredibly mediocre A-teamer much like MVP, but an A-teamer nonetheless.

If there's one game that seems absolutely perfect for someone named "The Timing Attacker," it's SC2. If this is him then all the luck in the world, it hurt KT for him to suddenly retire but I wish him the best.

Wow, major sellout if this is true, he abandoned KT right when they needed him most.
MMOs kill APM. However Proleague plus BW Proscene music increase APM -> 100. 이제동 Fighting! Highest ranked Jaedong owner in FPL10 = clearly #1 Jaedong fan~! <- Keeping my sig from 2010

Because if you retire from progaming you should not be able to play video games anymore? Wtf.

Neither July nor Nada were A-team anymore at the time of their switch. In fact, July was pretty damn bad at the game by the time he switched. NaDa made very rare appearances in proleague but was not an A-teamer (someone who gets regular proleague time, maybe not ever week, but say at least once very 3 matches).

and we actually had a nice run of manner muleing/dancing to each other in games for awhile as well.

LOL so awesome, I hope we see some of these things in a televised match between you 2
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

LoL, I'm sure he made "a little bit" more money playing BW on KT than playing SC2 without a proteam. How is he a sellout ROFL?
