Source: Twitter accounts of YellOw and Violet

It seems KT Rolster's Violet has been up to some shenanigans while receiving treatment for his leukaemia. A short discourse between YellOw and Violet is shown below, dated August 18:

[image loading]
[image loading]

Violet: Hyung you need to have a round of SC2 with me, I have a higher ladder ranking than you lol
YellOw: [Yellow's nickname for Violet here].. don't lie.. I've gone up a lot now.. kk What rank are you?
Violet: I was masters in Season 2 kk I haven't started Season 3 yet since I'm in hospital TT Hyung you need to get tested by me before you hit the Code A preliminaries kk
YellOw: Were you masters... – – You should be playing SC1, if you play SC2 that well as well.. what the kk

Some conclusions:
a) Violet is still in hospital (get better soon!)
b) He's been playing some SC2, and pretty good at that -_-
c) YellOw might not be masters at this point (he refers to masters with the 님 suffix, suggesting respect for Violet's ladder rank)
d) The theory of BW pros owning up current SC2 players if/when they switch is not completely without logic

To be fair, I expect Violet to stick with KT and BW, but him switching to SC2 would be an interesting thought :-P Umm enjoy, and discuss? :-S (Kudos will be awarded for finding Violet's account on the Korean ladder :-D)

Likewise, I just hope he gets better, but if he does play SC2 (at any point), he can challenge fake violet to a grudge match.

The only reason he's doing it is because this is his downtime while being treated for it. It should come as no surprise. I would definitely be trying all sorts of things while I still can.

I hope he gets better. He was a boss in BW, and it would be nice to see him continue to own it up in BW or SC2.

I wonder how it feels to be beat by someone on chemotherapy

If Violet can own it up the KR ladder while playing casually during his treatment, then it really says that the current SC2 top-tier level still isn't that high. :o

Pretty cool, but I hope he doesn't switch over, he still needs to get one more SPL title with KTRolster!

I thought Kepsa had forbade contracted SCBW pros from playing SC2.

I don't think that's even possible. They forbade them to play it professionally, probably yes. But in their free time they can do whatever they want.

So Violet, who is in hospital getting treatment for cancer, can achieve a higher ladder ranking than every foreigner playing on kr server. Wow he's really good.

You are a complete idiot, do some research on who YellOw is before posting.
