That post still mentions the ESV Korean Weekly code A seed though which ended up not being true because they didn't have a seed for that season. Only the previous GSL season gave one
The rest looked fine

Never really cared about this guy. the cheating scandal was really hushed and someone who retires and comes back repeatedly just gets boring


I'm guessing you weren't actually around for when this happened since it wasn't cheating and it was a mountain made out of mole hill

That thoughtless thing with Byun proved to be the probable end of Coca... at least the fuel for the fire it needed. Unfortunate, but such is life sometimes.. He was a great player once

Reading the first pages of the thread of the scandal - why is coca getting any sympathy?

Noooo!!! He was definitely my favorite zerg. It always sucks to see the career of a promising talent like that come to an end.

Are you serious? He left a game in an online cup to help a friend out. Obviously he wasn't in the right, but it was blown way out of proportion. Also, it doesn't have anything to do with him retiring NOW.

That incident with Byun is going to haunt him forever. He was so dominant before that happened and it's been all downhill from there.

It was cool seeing him dominate in person at raleigh 2011. He was def. one of the top zergs when he was on point, but the scandal, the departure to go play LoL for awhile, and the return that never really saw him do anything (aside from a nice showing in proleague preseason) and it doesn't surprise me to see this. It also wouldn't surprise me to see him come back yet again lol. It was probably more his decision to quit than JinAir's.

Good riddance. The less matchfixing and cheaters the better.

In honor of CoCa, one of my favorite of his games (against Sculp, from SlayerS' IPL TAC3 match against NSH):

He's moving on with life, which is probably for the best for him, due to lack of results and the limited career of a pro Starcraft gamer. Raleigh was a sick run, as well as his GSTL results in 2012 (season 2, particularly)

Specifically, a 100% win rate in ZvP at a time when very few Zergs played well against Protoss. He made one one of the hardest matchups in the game's history look really really easy.

Edit: Also really cool to see a Sculp video in the thread. He was one of those guys who was supposed to be the next great player and never really made it. Line (SuHoSin), Whale and Seal were some others. And somehow I missed that TesteR is back with StarTale.
