There are a few Koreans and surprisingly, even a few Europeans who are living in China (and Russia) who are still playing Warcraft 3 competitively at a top tier level. Besides, most Chinese professionals from back in the day, like XiaoT, TeD, SuhO, etc, don't even play Warcraft 3 any longer.
Well, TeD played in the last G-League, unless my eyes were deceiving me about what UD player crawled his way through the groups into the winner's bracket. D:

My mistake then. I was under the impression he was focusing on his restaurant full time at this point. That is great then if he is back playing

Who was the "no name"?
My mistake, actually he managed to get to 3rd round and get eliminated by Panda.Eagle, not that bad though. Btw, it's Sky who got eliminated in the first round. http://gleague.gamefy.cn/view.php?id=588&page=8

Npnp, he only recently came back. I think at first people were saying he was only playing 2s for his team, but then he got invited into the G-League and did really well. I dunno if he's going to continue or stop atm.
Okay, looks like Remind is playing SC2 somewhat competitively. Nice to see. All I knew about him SC2-wise was that he was playing Protoss.
To be honest, it is my personal opinion that Moon will be just as successful in Starcraft 2 as he was in Warcraft III when he begins to devote his time exclusively to Starcraft 2.
I can't wait to see him in action after one month.
Depends what you mean by just as successful. As in dominating the scene and being the undisputed best player pretty much? Highly highly doubt it. He will probably be a top pro tho of course.

That is exactly what I mean (constantly dominating)

Me neither. But moreover I can't wait for you to come up with an excuse when he doesn't deliver and say that he will do it in two months. And then three, four, five. It's the same old story. People overrate players. He is no Flash.

That's the whole point isn't it. This people have earned their rights to be hyped (former BW pros, WC3 legends, ladder beasts, etc). That's where fanbases and excitement is built.
Who cares if these people don't do as well as hyped? The point is that it's interesting to see how well they would do and if they can meet expectations.

I'm saying the expectations have not been earned. It was nice and dandy of course that he was great in WC3. But the game was not quite that competetive. As I said, he is no Flash.

No offense but how do you know Flash will do amazingly in SC2 if he switched?

"He is no Flash" , are you trying to diss the 5th race ? Moon aint no Flash and Flash aint no Moon , different games different people , or were you trying to suggest that "IF" flash played wc3 he would be good at it ??? LOL ! Flash is bw genius , but if he played wc3 I doubt he can survive vs Moon.
and on what basis do you think he won't deliver ? Do you live in this world ???? did you check his results as a PART TIMER ??
