MarineKing vs Kyrix and the marine splits was what got me into watching professional starcraft to begin with. I was in awe at the time and became a fan instantly. Those days were so fun!
Super frustratingly stubborn player but it was always fun to watch him play, and I always had a soft spot for him even after he started to fall off.

Oh no, this gosu was responsible for so many great moments, both in the game as well as between games.

I hope with every fiber of my being that he will reconsider. Marineking holds a special place in my heart. Sc2 was my first e-sports and Foxer was my favorite pro. Before that, I didn't even know what "e-sports" was. I played rts for 7 years just for bragging rights. Then I saw this kid come onto the stage with the sickest micro WOL had seen to date and the flashy style in real life to back it up. Anyone remember the Marineking popped collar or white "fake" shades? Hahaha, really the full package of a player. I remember walking to the Library when I had no PC eagerly waiting to watch the GSL vods of his games.

He inspired me to want to play sc2 full time. I saw this tiny, young, skinny, kid with his name being chanted as he came out of his booth at MLG, and I thought, isn't that something? Anyone can be an e-sports athlete. Since then I realized that starcraft players aren't exactly e-sports celebs in Korea. I don't think this lie helps anyone.

Good night sweet Prince. Awaiting the comeback...only 22.

Farewell MKP! Always cheered for you, loved your style and stubborn ignorance of the meta. Sad how it ends...

Goodbye MarineKing. Sadly never got to see you live during your peak, but your micro and splits will always be remembered. Despite the sad ending amidst controversy, there is no denying that every single time you were in the booth, it was absolutely riveting and impossible to look away.
