Very true, I remember when he was really dependable and was pretty much counted in on Code S every time, though he seemed to fall off as the pros got better. He was really awesome though, I hope he streams his antics

dammit MMA, why'd you have to beat him T_T lol

Well see you HongUn, hopefully you can accomplish whatever other goal it was that you said had more priority than Starcraft 2.

I was really looking forward to his return. It's so sad to hear he's calling it quits. I hope he comes back some time in HotS or at least streams himself playing other games. He was one of the most entertaining people to watch.

I was rather interested to see what other types of unorthodox strategies he would bring for the protoss. Kinda sad to see HongUn go, best of luck in the future.

I will never forget his macro nexus in PvZ.

Better to retire and pursue something else if pro-gaming is not for you. Never liked his "I don't give a fuck" attitude when there are so many players clamouring for a chance to play SC2 at the highest levels.

I finally got back to catch hongun's final games, I was very sad that he went "screw it" (Like I sadly deep down expected him to) with void ray all ins I wish he went "screw it" with a mass carrier build

.
I'll miss you carrierkingprime.

Wasn't this awhile ago? I swear I heard about this a little bit ago.

If not though,

I liked HongUn before Waxangel gave him the credit he deserved. Then Waxangel gave him the credit he deswerved and he fell out of Code S. So we can clearly blame Waxangel for this.

Saw it coming =(

Oh well, at least we didn't have a new up and coming player beaten down to code B.

Damn shame, if he wasn't going against a champion like MMA I'm sure he would have advanced.

Glad he didn't get hongunup about the GSL. Best of luck in life, hope he finds something he can be passionate about since he didn't care too much about SC towards the end. I love watching a good all-in, and he was always there to provide some nice micro battles
