Just out of curiousity: What has your back surgery to do with people changing the way they look? oO

I like his look before, but he definitely looks quite different now, like a very main-stream style good-looking.

WOW... OMG lol... that is just crazy O.O
Did the surgery make him more slim? because I think he might of lost the weight manually to be honnest

Not sure if Stork actually had surgery. As Fionn pointed out, he definitely started working out more and taking better care of his skin. (There is however plastic surgery you can get for really bad skin, ofc, to make it lighter/smoother/etc.; again, not sure if Stork had that done.)

So now when his SC/progamer career ends he won't be some retired and bad looking nerd. Most of people in this world judge everything by its cover, so a good look is always a bonus.
Yep, totally worth it.

Erm, why would you care what people do with their bodies? Their life/body/money and they are free to do anything they want with that.

well i think mTw didn't recognize their own player thus they have no choice

on a serious note, such a huge change to the appearance. I wonder how long it took him for his surgery + full recovery x_X

He looks like the "President" in the film 120 days of sodom before the surgery.

If he just got the eye surgery and nothing else, then just 1-2 weeks.

He definitely got work done to his nose too. It's more rounded and bulbous like a white dude now.

Does anyone have pictures of the other players that got surgery? I know stork did it, and it was a huge difference.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

It was Puma after one of his NASL wins. He won $50K I believe.
