2nd Best Zerg of all time after Jaedong.
His play was sometimes indistinguishable from the man himself.

I still fondly remember Effort showing how to (BW) micro (in SC2) in a televised game for the first time, trashing the upstart DRG thus SC2 only fans, demonstrating the potential of a real elephant.

GL to you, respect~

Definitely one of the greatest Zergs of all time, an A+ proleague sweeper fully capable of dismantling the S-class of the BW end days.

Hope to hear he's doing well in the future.
get stronger play longer

Such sad news, may she rest in peace. I hope effOrt stays strong, losing a parent isn't an easy thing to go through.

As amazing as he is at the game, family is more important. So hopefully he can deal with that first, sad to hear though. Edit, saw that his mom passed today, my thoughts are with you.
