Does he have a place to put donations or something since his house fire or anything? I would be more than happy to donate 5 dollars to help him get situated if he isn't in the place he wants to be at the moment.

Currently, he is staying at the CSN Headquarters (aka Andrew's apartment) in Austin, TX. His plans are to stay with Andrew for now. As for moving forward from there.. I think a lot will depend on his ability to get a visa to stay in the states for a longer period of time. I know that he has expressed to Andrew that he would prefer a NA team to play for.. and thus it means he would prefer to stay in the states.

On his stream, we have set up a donation box.. but it does not go directly to help him with his home (Korea) situation but more to help him with paying some of the cost of the trip here and his trip to MLG. Yes, CSN sponsored all of that.. but being the person that he is.. he wants to be able to help with those costs. We made up some stickers for him and if you donate you do get a sticker and a pack of replays. I know its not a lot.. but we felt that it was best to give back something other then just his stream and story.

I hope that helps. If not, you can message me directly on TL if you would like.

I think he'd fit in nicely in ReING since they do need more zerg players(only have 1 last time i checked...which was a while ago) and he is a pretty fantastic player. I was always impressed with his play.

It's pretty mindboggling how he still hasn't found a team considering his amazing record on the ladder. Hopefully someone picks him up soon and takes care of him.

Nice article. He's a really good Zerg, so hopefully he finds a team he feels comfortable with and starts stomping his way through more big events.

i became a fan of violet at IPL3. out of nowhere while we were standing next to each other watching players start their games, he just started asking me questions and starting conversation. it was sort of tough at first, but he was really persistent about carrying on a conversation, and we easily just stood there talking with each other for almost half an hour.

afterward, he watched me play out my games, congratulated me when i won, and consoled me whenever i dropped a game. the few times we passed by each other, he would always stop for a minute and ask how things were going. he really left an impression on me for being so outgoing despite a language barrier, and the fact that a code S player bothered to stand around and watch my games really surprised me. he was just being a genuinely really nice guy

i really hope he finds the team he's looking for. best of luck to him. he'll always have me as a fan :D
