So long and thanks for all the fish!

Wow thats actually sad. I remember when i was at IEM CeBit in Hannover, where he was in the finals against AcE. That was the first Starcraft 2 Match I've ever seen and it moved me to begin playing sc2 myself.

GL to you Moon
I'm a f*cking walking paradox.

SoJu/ReMi was arguably the strongest 2v2 combo in the world for a very long time. If i remember correctly they actually lost to Sky/infi dual human cheese in a WC3L finals in China. The top 2v2 teams around this time were SoJu/ReMi - Axslav/Strifecro - FoCuS/Shy - Grubby/Moon - LiilD.C/KnOfF etc...urgh the nostalgia. Really wish 2v2 had taken off in SC2, was a huge part of WC3 clanwars

Watched the latest WCG and really, really wanted Moon to win. I remember when i first got involved in eSports/followed the scene WCG was the shit, the #1 tourney of the year. Sad to see how it's fallen. Old school Moon destroying Orcs with zeppelin micro cancelling T2 tech with DH/BM and human fast expands is something that i'll never forget. Moon was god

Spirit)Moon #1

Moon/Grubby was never a thing, they did play a few in WC3L but thats during the time when 2v2 quality was really going down

somehow you managed to forgot Moon/Lucifer the #1 2v2 in my heart. Grubby/ToD also carried 4K during their prime. These two and SoJu/ReMinD top the 2v2 ranking in my book. American 2v2 like Ax/Strife or LongWalk/kiwi were flashy but not solid enough. Chinese duos were just lame


The Transatlantic Showdown 2v2 was great. Strife/Ax vs Moon/Luci in the finals, Grubby/ToD in 3rd. I agree with you, except I give Ax/Strife a little more credit. They had they best teamwork in the world when it came to 2v2. Obviously they weren't nearly as skilled as Moon or Luci on an individual level (let's be real, Moon/Luci is scary haha), but teamwork wise they were better. I think that is the only reason they were able to compete vs top tier teams, because not to bash Ax or Strife, both amazing guys, but they weren't much better than NA amateur scene level when it came to their 1v1.

One of the biggest legends in competitive gaming history. If only he had dedicated as much time into StarCraft 2, as he did during his prime-time in WC3, he could've potentially become one of the absolute best. Sick training-ethics, unbelievable micro and incredible decision-making. Unfortunately for the SC2-scene, the best - and last - generation of WC3-players (talking specifically about Chinese and Koreans) retired shortly before SC2.

Farewell, Moon. May your wife treat you as the living legend that you are!

Last time Moon was relevant was... WC3 o.O he's only officially retiring from SC2 now? I thought he just kind of faded away years ago.

Ah okay. I figured it was mainly about SC2 since it was in this section.

Is this already over? lilsusie tweeted a pic two hours ago:
stating: "At GOM studios with @mOOnGLaDeau and @ggCMonteCristo for the WarCraft 3 Moon Challenge! pic.twitter.com/A6OTNxaSzx"

I have a bad feeling about this.

He was not that successful in sc2, mainly because he did not like the game. Going to miss his wc3 awesomeness.

MonteCristo tweeted this page as live stream: http://afreeca.com/afw3match But it seems to require a login with Afreeca to get access (not that I actually can read Korean).

Very sad. Moon was one of the my favorite korean wc3 pros. Unfortunate SC2 didn't fit him too well.

Hey he made the finals of some pretty big tournaments like IEM world championships and dreamhack early on in SC2, not bad results for someone who played two games at once.

Yeah I really wouldn't say that he wasn't succesful. He got very far in many tournaments and even though he wasn't the best, he was still really really good.
