You can open shove three times in a row
Try using both Irradiate and Defensive Matrix on an Overlord. It looks pretty neat.

this is really horrible, boxer is supposed to show the younger generation that you can fall back onto something in the industry even after your pro-gaming career is finished.

Yeah, 15 years in the industry isn't enough, he has to stick around longer so young progamers think there are plenty of jobs for them in the industry, even though whether Boxer is still here has no bearing on how many jobs are actually available for those guys. It's not enough that countless people have gotten jobs related to progaming. Boxer has to stay forever even after the point when Jeffrey Combs reanimates him to continue slaving away at Starcraft.

he has been retired from playing sc2 for like 2 years now which is like a lifetime in esports.i didn't even remember him as being in sc2 anymore.what he is doing is normal considering the korea scene right now.there are many things that point to a decline in the sc2 scene.boxer's switching to poker is not one of them

no reason to be sad.

because of him, people that have never heard of esports/starcraft will hear from it for the first time. In my opinion these are good news.
Let's be honest: he didnt have any impact on starcraft in the last year whatsoever, we barely saw him anyway. we probably will hear more from him now :D

Im guessing that online poker with 100% rakeback + free sponsorship money ir still profitable.

Why is everybody so sad? This man managed to stay in esports for way over 10 years as a player and a coach, that's more than most people do and we should be grateful for all that boxer has done for our scene. At the same time we should also be happy for him that he managed to transition into something else and I really wish him a lot of success.

So is he not doing anything Starcraft related any more? Was REALLY surprised seeing this thread title. I thought it must've been a joke thread.

Dunno why everyone is so sad. Seems like a natural transition after being in games your entire life. You either coach, which he probably got fed up with, or do something like this.
