I wouldn't call TCM his new home, it's been almost a year since he joined. But I'm glad he found new passion for the game.

Potential? He was amazing for a while there with incredible consistency. Just gets demotivating after a while though. Glad to see him back.

Cool, was someone watching his games in HSC qualifier? Is he still good?

Perfect, if he can keep up his macro despite the faster pace of LotV, he will be unstoppable!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

He was one of my favorite Zergs for the longest time but the stories that went around before he quit really turned me off in the way he skipped clan wars he promised to attend and a lot of other acts of arrogance.. Please correct me if I'm wrong since it was quite a while ago and the details are a bit fuzzy but as of right now I'm not too hyped for his return..

Hopefully when he goes to the qualifiers next season, he studies the maps.

Great news! Always loved watching Soulkey play, one of my favorite zerg in WOL and HOTS.

This is a monumental victory for SC2. People relatively new to the scene may not know, but Soulkey was a pretty fucking legendary BW player, as well as a pretty consistent and scary HotS player at his peak. He was not bonjwa level in BW or anything, but to see a player with this much experience and clout in eSports coming BACK to the scene rather than leaving it is awesome.

I have so much hope for LotV.

Given that he really kind of disappeared (and was on a downturn already at that point), I feel like something else might have compounded that particular issue. I fully understand TB's frustration with him not showing up to play, and it was a dick move to not let anyone know what was going on, but for all we know he could just as well have been having life issues elsewhere.

It's a really ggod news !!

I like this guy since Woogjin Stars (with sOs!!)

I wish him the best for 2016 & i hope he'll qualife for both gsl & ssl

Don't know if he will be able to play SPL. May be he is "ban" by SKT like PartinG, Rain or Fantasy...

SK left with Bravo before those three, and the latter was able to play for KHAN soon after.

Yes but Parting Rain & FantaSy were unable to play PL last year.

I found a thread about that :
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/471157-parting-unable-to-play-in-2015-proleague

It seems that does not include Soulkey so i hope to see him in the new ''korean foreigners'' team.

Soulkey belongs on a kespa team. Simple as that

Meh, the Proleague round was done, the year had just started, GSL was barely past the Ro32.

All I'm saying is, he is on a team, he's just returned to the game in general, don't get your hopes up. At all.

He took 2nd in Olimoleague today. Maybe he can channel his talent into becoming an online bonjwa, similar to Solar and ByuN. Filthy rich in a 1000 steps.

I don't consider Olimoleague as something very meaningful :D
I hope he at least plays in proleague.

Wait a random thought, will code s be refilled from scratch?

I was wondering about this also. Since the game changed it would kinda make sense for them to mulligan and start over completely. But they did one for 2015 and it took like 3 seasons to get most of the players who should be in Code S back into Code S (and even then IMO we didn't get them all). I'm sure they'll announce it soon, the qualifiers should be less than a month away at this point.

Wol -> Hots they didn't do it btw, so i guess we won't get a new beginning here either?
Which is probably even the better choice in the end.

Also Maru played in Olimoleague today so obviously it's a huge deal!

(I wonder if the eSports awards thing was even done by the time Maru started playing)
