Moon is married, and I hear he has a kid now. Do people really expect him to be the same as in Warcraft 3 where his whole life was practice non stop ?

Yeah, have you seen he's achievments this far? and he wasen't even playing fulltime!

He took good placements at every foreign event he attended last year:
2nd Dreamhack Summer 2011
2nd IEM WC 2011
2nd IPL 4 Pacific
2nd China 3D games
8th MLG Columbus
8th NASL Season 1 Grandfinals

Maybe he would practice harder 'cause he needs to pay for the baby's powdered milk :/

LOL.

i don't expect him to get to the level he was at in War3, because that sort of achievement is pretty much a once-in-a-lifetime sort of thing, but I hope he becomes very, very good.

good job getting yourself a sub par korean just like every other team. fail hype.


How is Moon a subpar Korean? He got 2nd place finishes at quite a few huge tournaments while still practicing WC3 for WCG.


His results in Korea is subpar. But I would argue that Moon was the free agent with the best results now.

There are still some people that don't get how hard the GSL is ? There are fantastic players like Puma, Yonghwa or TOP that fail to make it to Code A but they're far from being supbar korean


Yes I completely agree. I commented on his results not his ability. I think he is capable of making code S.

And at the same time there are tons of Code A and some Code S players that people could not care less about, unless of course they do something related to the foreign community.

Where's the full video they showed during the announcement?

Or could at least someone reveal the song they used? As that song was sick as f*ck.

I hope so much that Moon manages to become one of the best SC2 players and competes with the big SC:BW names once they switch. It's going to be so awesome.

Hmmm, wonder if Moon will be another top-tier zerg in the future now that he's full-time. Irregardless, that epic baneling mine fail will forever haunt him xD

If his old 20hour wc3 practice schedule carries over to sc2 I guess so.

20 hours per...day? Week?


Day. He used to take little naps while searching for an opponent.


are you serious? I thought he was kidding about the 20 hours.

Nope, not kidding.

The thing is that if you were really high on the ladder, it wasn't weird to have really long ladder queues (1 hr+ at times), so it wasn't a terrible system if you didn't mind being woken up every 45-60 minutes.

Wait so this is amazing and I really need a source... Can you help me find it? I've been trying to confirm this with google and such but havent been able to yet.

Won't be surprised if he makes it into the next code A, but I am expecting 2-3 seasons.

And yet Grubby will do it, again, in time!

I'm sure Moon will be in the very top after a while. Guys like Grubby and Moon are nothing short of geniuses and their understanding of the game is unparalleled by most gamers, even the gamers that are putting up better or as good results. Combine this with practice and you have an unstoppable force, pretty much.

I'll be thrilled to see what Moon will post in terms of results!

Go fnatic, go Moon, I'll be rooting for you all the way!
