I always said that Iloveoov was more of a coach/mentor than Boxer. Im actually happy that he got the position he deserved. I have nothing against Boxer, but imo he was not as good. Still he is legend and iconic player.
My wrist really started to flare up. My colossi number started to pile up and with the last of my concentration I prepared for a win.

Probably wasn't working out for both sides. I hope he'll remain on the team.

Hope he has some time now to really rest his body, sad to see him go, but even if it might be still a bit too early, what I wish for Christmas the most is BoxeR's return as a player!!! Love you, BoxeR, get well soon!!!

This is good for SKT1, BoxeR was not the best coach let's be honest. Such a shame that Bisu retired before giving another season a shot.

Plays Brood War -> Switches to Star 2 -> Founds Slayers -> Playing Coach -> Coach -> SKT1 Coach -> GG?

I sure don't hope so I really hope health issues are the actual reason, I was very pumped for the results of boxer + oov coaching combo. Get better soon Boxer and pls don't leave esports!

Boxer will most likely be the manager or asst manager of SKT1. He's really a player/businessman, so I suppose that's the next logical progression. If you think about it, he created his own brands + he runs his own PC Baang. It's unlikely that he'll go back to playing, since his health is affected too much.


I think that's the position that Coach Park had, but then Park went back to coaching, and I expect Boxer will too.


Coach Park said in an interview that after they replaced him with Boxer they asked him to Coach the skt1 lol team, but as he wanted to stick with starcraft (who can blame him) over wanting to stay with skt1 he decided to leave.

Sad news . Hope he recovers quickly if it's indeed his shoulder and that he'll find his rightful place in the scene once more. Somewhere I'm hoping he'll go back to BW even though he probably wouldn't be able to keep up anymore.

slightly off-topic questions:
why sc2 players "retire" and dota players go "inactive"?

In the past, whenever there were dramatic news about a DotA pro retiring, sooner or later the guy returned to the scene. They don't just 'retire' in DotA, they're always coming back.

Except for vigoss.

Wasn't Boxer considered an awful coach.

All hail our new Gorilla Overlord.

I don't see why though SKT1 got fourth in proleague which is pretty good and their players are doing well it seems silly to call him a "bad coach" I have no idea about his coaching in BW though.

also a couple of interesting tweets from huk

From what conversations I remember with boxer. He was initially suppose to only be the terran coach for SKT.




Show nested quote +

After some time he was suppose to coach all members, which he said was really hard for him; to much. He said it was a big burden on him.


Thanks for this.

Aw, I hope BoxeR comes back.

I always get the feeling oov was the better choice for Head Coach anyway, BoxeR should be more of the person behind the scenes. So maybe oov Head Coach, BoxeR comes back after he recovers and be assistant coach.

I know I read some where oov was the more people person between the two anyway. I just hope BoxeR recovers from his health and rejoins SKT. It would suck to lose another legend, now that Bisu and BeSt are gone.

I hope Boxer is alright, but honestly this is a good thing for SKT. Oov is a far better coach
