Nani isn't the topic of this thread, nor do I mention him in my posts. CrunCher is basically a middle of the road player who isn't even comparable to Naniwa in skill. Just look up tournament results.
Also I wasn't bashing ONE as if they all cheese.. I actually have a few friends that are involved with ItsGosu, so I have no problem with them if that is what youre trying to imply. I guess you didn't know, but that name was made out of sarcasm. Since anybody halfway decent could 4gate their way into Master league in season 1.
So sir, what exactly is your point?

His point is that Cruncher was improving a lot lately and had long ago moved passed the cheese / all-in style that you pidgeonholed him in.

Looks like IdrA was right about Cruncher falling off the scene... lol...
On a more serious note, I can't imagine how hard it must be to be a progamer while in college. Last night on RedBull LAN QXC said a little about how hard it is and how "life basically sucks" trying to balance the two.
Good luck to Cruncher even if I lost 3 times to his cannon rush cheese on the ladder! Lol fucking right. Idra said once the balance swung out of Protoss' favor, Cruncher would make a quiet exit, and here it is. <3
Was waiting for the moronic IdrA fan comment, shame it didn't even wait until the second page

Best of luck to Cruncher!
Fortunately, there are other great players on Complexity/ MVP

Good luck to Cruncher. I hope he does well in school. It's too bad that he was never able to get seeded into the pools at MLG; he made more than one run through the open bracket if I remember correctly.

IdrA has probably said that every player will fall off the scene, of course he will be right about a few.
Good luck to cruncher in his studies and hopefully starcraft, I think it is a tad funny how complexity seems to be the anti-idra team. This situation is eerily similar to Silver's but Cruncher was more significant player than Silver by a longshot.

When Cruncher came onto the scene, Idra started losing and didn't stop.
When Cruncher retired, Idra started playing better than he had in months!
Coincidence?

Lets be honest here, aside from Trimaster who is unknown and still has yet to show consistent performance, they all are all pretty mediocre. I mean they will never be favourites to win a major LAN, nor even make it into the top 8.

I posted on this thread but later I changed my mind and erased it, just because I know that a simple post wouldn't change much, But then, someone PMed me and reminded me that maybe one post could make a difference.
Why did we boo him on the MLG stage... ? why ? Who is Idra? Why would we bash a person, that is, a professional player who helps our community just to show our support for someone else?
Maybe, if we acted like humans with brains and emotions and unlike animals and showed him some support he wouldn't have left our community as easy.
Why is Idra getting so much support? he would do what he did to cruncher to each and everyone of us if he did "like" us or the race we play...
Lets build a community that praises the best, most hardworking people and punished the unappreciative. completely agree with you. I was there at MLG Anaheim and ppl boo Cruncher when IdrA was the guy who trashtalked and walked ago.
We're not saying all this today and then forget everything next week. We have no one to prevent unfortunate stuff like this one from happening in our community. and because of that, the community should act as a body in stopping terrible thing from happening.
If it continues like this, everyone will starting hating each other and by the next 2 years, the so called "Starcraft 2 community" will turn into a crowd of selfish, rude people who just randomly pick someone from among themselves and victimize him to death.

Does this mean when cruncher finishes school he still has a spot on coL? Is he still getting paid?

I would assume he is not getting paid anymore. But I'm pretty sure that coL will at least give him a shot to come back if he so wishes.

Aw too bad. He had good potential and was one of their best.

School > SC , glad to hear him focusing on school. This statement was influenced by college athletes, obtain a degree to fall back on when playing sports come to an end.

I was never a big Cruncher fan, but he's made it into the championship bracket of the past three MLGs, right? That's pretty damn good, I don't see why people look down on him like he's some sort of scrub.
Overall it's the smart decision, best of luck to him in his studies.

Will his spot be filled by another player that will be recruited?
edit: possibly some foreigner in Korea to strengthen their presence in Korea?
