Re-evaluating my own odds.

It can't be Polt (thought so due to the picture, circumstantial evidence has caused me to devalue this possibility). The picture was so Polt though.

So I'm now at 50% EGMoon (the fifth race, liberty, spirit.moon), 50% someone else. Difficult to say. Hoping for a foreigner, but if it's Moon, I'm okay with it. If it's some random Korean talent, I'm kinda sad.

On a sidenote: Does anyone know of any Korean players who are actually called Moon? I know it is a name in Korean.


There kinda is, but it's spelt Mun not Moon. Don't think they have double-"o"s sound.

Mun Seong Won = SlayerSMMA

They don't have a separate double o sound. 'oo' and 'u' are used interchangably. There isn't a real proper way of romanizing names. If you look at MMA's TLPD you would see his name is spelled Moon Sung Won. (pronounced just like how you would pronounce it if you were speaking English words)

warning my personal opinion, not stating facts:

sorta hoping it's grubby. Warcraft 3 still got more depth as a game. More things you can be ahead and behind in items, hero levels, bases, army, upgrades so on so fourth. More things to consider and given time he can become one of the very best in starcraft 2. With that said I can't help myself from believing that blizzard would be crazy to pass up on making warcraft 4 after diablo 3 and the whole sc2 trio. Sure it might take a while but I'm hoping that grubby, moon, ToD and all my old favs go back to wc at that point. So I'm sorta hoping he's not getting too invested. Then again we're talking years here so he might aswell. nvm.

What this guy said.

Its just a random silhouette that they have made. Not an actual player silhouette, I thought that was pretty obvious.



So after 116 pages of people guessing which player it is based on the look of the silhouette you thought it was pretty obvious that it's not based on the silhouette?

Great job there Captain Obvious!

Hardly. Normally in one of these topics, there're always some"insiders" or "internet detective" which will get the right answer right or lead people into mood to add the hype.

ToD said he would never play WC again, and I disagree that WC3 had more depth. I think it was Axslav that said "you just kinda make your units and move them around and micro abit"

Of course!
It's a Grubby silhouette from the good ol'days.
Why?

Because Grubby just came back home from holidays in EGYPT!

Now let's add a "." EG.YPT
Now let's take a way a "T" EG.YP
And finally add a "J" and we get:

EG.JYP


obviously... :p

Well seeing as the past few have all already converted with the exception of sAviOr who's banned, iloveoov who's retired and Flash who's still active, it's unlikely. For a bonjwa to switch anyway.

well ,2 out of 5 have already switched, saviour is banned, and flash is earning too much in BW to switch. that leaves iloveoov

I think its because 'Thor' is a Norse god, therefore he fits the description of 'not from around here'.

I'm not sure why but if it is someone like JYP or Killer I won't be very impressed, they are very good players but I wouldn't hype them up this much because I don't feel like they really big starts, but then again I don't watch much GSL.

Also if it is Grubby I will be so excited since he is the reason why I got into sc2 and e-sports in general and is I guess my idol and role model so the hype is well deserved, but I'm not sure if it is him.

To be fair, this hype is nearly entirely community driven. A simple splash image and a tweet beforehand? That's nothing for EG.
