That was to be expected. I've seen his stream lately and his level wasn't impressive anymore.

Word. He's the guy that brought me to SC2 esports and teamliquid by association. He has my respect now and forever.

Apart from his splits he´ll also be remembered for some of the best casting at HSC VI,
together with MC and possibly Reis - even by Homestory standards this was one of the most hillarious
casts - and I use the term lightly, it was more of a comedyshow - ever.
I remember them casting a match with a Zerg involved and nearly died lauging.
Old HSC VODS are not easy to find, maybe someone has got a link at hand?

Anyway, like some many said before: End of an era. Sad to see his legacy tarnished by accusations and bad results these last months and years.

Litteraly invented the split micro. Was maybe too emotional to win a title, but I don't think any less of him for this.

Let's go in the nostalgia train one last time :

Dear INno and all the former STX boys.

Farewell, you will be missed

Enjoy your future, GL, HF!

Proof that slandering a mans name can end him


You think so? I thought it was the fact that he's been largely irrelevant for a long time now, and has been playing other games.


also judging from consensus people had it out for the guy even though the real hammer never came down on him.

He was my favorite player until his pupil outclassed him, his rivalry with DRG is still the best sc2 as ever seen, MLG never forget...
had the chance to meet him during Ironsquid's autograph session, he couldn't believe he had so much fans, but his fame was deserved.

His era was WoL except for that one run in the Hot6ix cup. I've never thought of MarineKing be anything besides a WoL player.

Damn, that's sad but not too surprising. I really loved watching MKP's games back when he was in his prime (har har). His legacy lives on in Maru and Byun right now, incredibly. I'd say he'll be missed, but I've missed him for a long time already. He was one of the first players for me that showed that SC2 had the potential to become as refined and exciting to watch as BW (another being Cliiiiiiide).
