Explain why it is a fact then :o who told you.
Also in spite of his terrible ranking in the foreigner ranking, VortiX has been dominating hard so it's kinda cool but LucifroN with him would be far better, too many zergs already :/.

Both Vortix and Lucifron have been very inactive on Heroes it seems. At least they aren't playing hero league at all since 12/12 (well ok vortix played ONE game on the 25 ).

Vortix was not only strong during BL/Infestor days, gotta love how often foreign zerg's achievements are played down. He was incredibly strong during HotS in 2013 and 2014 and he was never a SH player. He crushed players like MMA, Mvp and ForGG with ease. Him returning would be way more exciting than IdrA returning, because he would actually be competitive.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Blizzard should really stop to show accounts publicly. Even worse than facebook.

hotslogs works by players uploading replays, it doesn't automatically gather match data. However, just one of the 10 players in a game need to upload it for it to appear on hotslogs for all involved players.

I think Vortix is trolling and rank 1 GM.

Vortix is totally the type of person who would be top2 in two different games.

He has one of the best work ethics of a foreigner.

I would have loved for Mondragon to come back.

The quote doesn't even sound remotely like him though.
And he wasn't on top in SC2 anyways. I'm too old I guess.

eu zerg bardcode owning everyone, no pros know about him
kaeleris has the info (from heroes)
the phrasing sounded french or spanish
eu pros poking him on twitter

Mondragon would be nice

Yeh also my reasoning. Think about this: If Thorzain would make a comeback.... So what? Like he would have no chance at being competitive + his still in school. Like at best he is gonna be a part time SC2 player, and that's something he has previously prooved he wasn't capable of doing very well. Thus, it would be unlikely Kalaeries actually would tweet about something that would have no impact on the competitive scene.

Vortix on the other hand is different. Like he could quickly still be one of the best foreign zergs with 2 months of LOTV practice or so and has prooved that he can do well playing Sc2 part time. Plus all he needs to do is to stop playing Heroes and start playing LOTV.

And ofc it makes sense that Kalaeris would know about a Heroes player switching back to Sc2. Not sure how he would have inside knowledge if it was Thorzain.

Out of curiosity - how this quoted statement, "I'm already close to the level I had" would look like if it was said by a native English speaker? Just wondering

"I'm already close to the level I was at" would be better, but I think people are reading too much into the grammar. Native speakers use incorrect english all the time, because it's slang or colloquial language. Vortix might not have the best english, but someone like Thorzain has better english than HuK for example imo.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This thread is silly. It's going to be a giant letdown when its Vortix who was really only successful during the BL/Infestor days. There's probably 1-3 foreign players that could generate a 33+ page thread soley based on the fact they were returning, so the odds are it will be disappointing when this mysteriousu person is revealed -- if ever... and when?


Yes it will be a giant letdown if it is Vortix, as good as he was.

I've still got my fingers crossed that is Idra and everyone that knows is keeping it a secret. I'm still assuming this VilliaN guy who is a Zerg player on the NA ladder is related to this announcement.


I mean if you're ready to believe something like that any time someone goes for a little mystery, you're bound to get disappointed. IdrA doesn't want to play anymore, has said that he's just a student now, and he has no specific contact with Kaelaris that would explain how Kaelaris would be the one to know it and announce it. Of course it isn't IdrA.
