I have a Jaedong story, last year at WCS on the second (?) day I was outside my hotel waiting to meet up with some people for breakfast or whatever, and out of nowhere Jaedong showed up with someone. They did not know how to get to the venue so I offered to walk him there. So yeah I got to walk him to the venue and it was pretty cool, they let him in after some convincing he was a player and I went about my day

girly nerd chills.

What is he doing at blizzcon?

can't announce BW HD without the Dong

This made me think about the Google AI, they might actually have the AI vs Progamer Starcraft match be in BW:HD.

There were rumors a while ago of some high ranked Zerg account being Jaedong's on Fish or whatever so if I were a betting man I'd wager he will try his hand at Afreeca BW streaming, like all his old bros.

Probably after 2 months of saying he's not going to.

I truly believe he will return to BW. And I don't see this as a bad thing. I still mostly watch SC2, but I feel like most of the old guard only switched because they basically had to.

Surprised it took so long, this year was so weird with him still being on EG while doing nothing. I hope we will still see him in the future somehow!

All the best JD, I will always be your fan!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I'm pretty sure EG SC2 is effectively defunct.

In the interview he says he played some games like lol and OW and rested.
Rumors are that he also played on the fish server (bw)
