The man Nony himself! Glad you are doing fine. I still occasionally tune in to your stream no matter which game.

I remember him from the early Sc2 days, enjoyed watching some of his games. Was probably one of the first TL players to stop playing, but it's actually really cool to find out what progamers do with their lives after retiring.

I also really enjoy travelling, so it's cool to see he can afford to do that. Props and good luck!

No.

Flash is back to dominating, Jaedong is "allegedly" returning. Bisu is still top dog. Come back and watch some of the next ASL

Also, start practicing and I'll let you be the first contender in my 2017's Fight Club. $50 for the winner and you get to compete the next week if you win. That's like free money right?

Flash is dominating? :D didnt he get trashed TvT in the last tournament

Thank you Nony for all your hilarious content, including the stuff you did on state of the game. Really sad that all the sc2 greats have moved on, but good to see this article!

That is pretty respectable although from watching his stream religiously he makes some silly mistakes at times but I guess he is only human

I always deemed Nony (around the time he was in Korea) to be the best foreigner of all time, skill wise. Very clean, crisp mechanics, fantastic decision making. Too bad his prime fell on the darker period of foreign BW; He would have made much more of an impact otherwise.. Glad he's doing well!

Yeah, he's improving. I did however predict his 3-0 smashing handed to him by Last. I think he will make the finals or have an early exit due to cheese in the next ASL.

Fun fact: Nony has run the half marathon in 1:16:32.

He isn't just running like many others. He is damn fast and talented runner.

NonY participating in courage back a few years ago was the greatest thing. Anyone know if the scforall videos of Artosis documenting it are still around? It really was a different period in StarCraft. Shouldn't be forgotten about!

Nony is such a cool guy. I remember when I saw him watching one of the semifinals of BW at WCG 2008 (as he was knocked out in quarter finals). He was sitting alone, so I went ahead and sat next to him. We talked a bit and watched some of the game together. It was a cool conversation and he even gave me tips on my protoss. I was a fan from this day on. And I wasn't even very sad when he won TSL against Mondragon, because of that chat :D Glad to hear that you are doing good man, keep it up
