Puzzle was my favourite Protoss player and I was very sad when he retired, it would be great news if he came back for HotS.

Both were good players, the thing is that LoL and SC2 have very different skill sets. I wouldn't be surprised if none of the pros that switched actually go "pro." Waiting for Inori to switch back for his PvP sniping haha.
User was warned for too many mimes.

He really struggled against Protoss later on though.

For the inevitable "which teams will pick them up" discussion, I suspect Axiom, StarTale, AZUBU or IM might be interested in acquiring these two. Axiom has the SlayerS connection without the issues of management, ST is smarting after losing two key players, AZUBU is probably looking to expand further, and IM might want to rejuvenate their roster. I can see Quantic signing these two if they have the pockets for it because it will expand their presence in Korea with two players who showed their potential.


I think IM is rather overloaded atm, but hey, they are the most well funded eSF team. So they can recruit from the storefronts as the saying goes. AZUBU has a good number of Z's and P's, would they need another pair with Puzzle and CoCa? Maybe. I think they could be best suited in Axiom since there's very few players on that team as is. And as you said, it's more or less SlayerS connection without issues of mismanagement.

Depending on Quantic's financial situation after the reform, could they afford both of them, or even 1 of them? Possibly, but I think their roster is big enough as is, if you include the academy roster too.

I guess a number of factors play into this.

- Would either puzzle/coca come back to SC2 full time for HOTS?
- If so, are they looking for a team full time?
- What type of team? A eSF/purely Korean one? A foreigner one that can sponsor them to go to events overseas?
- What type of salary they think they are entitled to if any?

The timing is so perfect though, they likely played in HotS and are playing WoL just like the other pros because of the downtime. They showed no results in LoL and probably felt they had no reason to continue. Why not start over in a new expansion that is essentially a skill reset?

Not surprising since they weren't very good @ LoL, and HOTS is coming out

Yup, he was fantastic until that awful awful awful awful awful awful decision by SlayerS/GSL to kick him out of Code S. Would love to have him back

It was his own awful awful awful awful decision to do dumb stuff tough...

Puzzle is the Protoss Vice President. He's the only Protoss to ever win Code A.

But will we see sC, Fruitdealer or the couple of KeSPA pros who switched come back? That is the question.

It is "incredibly" hard to be a LoL pro since you are not alone. You need so much team synergy and that takes a long time to build up. You can't just walk into an event like with sc2 and show results you need to do a very long process and assemble a team etc etc...Just to break out as a LoL pro.

team games are hard ><


Yeah, you're definitely right about that.

Puzzle was one of my favorite Protoss to watch. A little bit like Keen in my opinion. Capable of sick strong mechanical and multitask-based play, but a bit inconsistent. Would like to see him back. And Coca was one of few pre-patchzergs along with Leenock, Nestea and DRG, real legit.

I hope they return. I actually enjoyed watching them, and thought they were skilled.
