Stoked to read this! Nony is a stand out representative of the esports culture IMO. He's professional, intelligent, respectful, mature, and hilarious too. He is an exemplar of the best qualities of our community and an example to the rest of the world that having a passion for video games doesn't make you an anti-social tv trope.

To those complaining that any of us care about his return, its no different than being excited about seeing someone like White-Ra play. Its not always just about results.

In all of sports people find individuals whose personalities and life stories resonate with their own personalities and experiences and feel a connection to that individual and a desire to see them succeed in whatever degree is meaningful to that individual. A lot of us felt a strong kinship with Nony from both his broodwar years and from his time in the SC2 public spotlight. For many people I'm sure the story of what he has been dealing with in his personal life has only amplified that connection. To see him come back to the community is exciting to us. We don't know if he can achieve what he's claiming he's set out to do, but we are excited to see him try regardless of whether he succeeds or not, because we as a community have come to care about him as a person, not just his success.
... In life very little goes right. "Right" meaning the way one expected and the way one wanted it. One has no right to want or expect anything.

I'm sure I'm gonna lose some games on stream to some unsavory types. It's fine, I'll just learn from it and queue again and they can make of it whatever they want.

We have to remember that people post on forums anonymously and without any real repercussions (worst thing that can happen is you get banned, not really a punishment IMO). So you have to take what people say with a grain of salt.

There is no doubt in my mind that this is worthy of a thread, NonY. You have contributed a lot to TL and to the SC2 community. All the noteworthy interactions you have had with your teammates and the community, seen and unseen. I saw on your Twitter you placed highly in a half-marathon awhile back, so no doubt you are capable of accomplishing great things. And I look forward to watching you in the future.

Remember that every peak has a valley, so try not to get too up or down mentally at any time, about what some person says. Keep a consistent intensity going. Anyway, that's all I wanted to say. All the best going forward!

Welcome back NonY. Always appreciated your character and dedication to the game. Your BW vods really got so many of us into the game again and I have no doubt your presence will only be good for the scene. glhf

Nony? Can Idra be far behind? Grudge match of the century. Good luck Nony. Maybe iNcontroL can be your drill thrall.

Hey NonY do you have a stream schedule? I know you might want to practice in private (e.g. hide builds etc.) but how about streaming? I would love to watch you stream.

Lmao, long time Liquid player and personality returns to the game and gets a bunch of "EH IDK HE WAS NEVER THAT GOOD"

Cool to see you back in action Nony, I haven't watched in years but you were always one of my favorite players back in the WoL days.

If people want to be a public figure then they should recognize that they are putting themselves out there for public scrutiny. Not saying this in a hateful way, just being realistic and fair.

You must agree that some of the comments made here are far from scrutiny.

I sincerely hope i'm wrong when I say that Nony competing at a high level consistently and coming close to winning even a single tournament, never mind getting enough points to qualify for blizzcon is extremely unlikely. As far as i'm concerned, it's like a master or low grandmaster player saying they want to try out going professional for a year. That's fine, but they haven't done anything since this game came out, and players are so insanely good now without even trying that they would need to practice twice as much as anyone else just to retain a similar level of skill.

Once again, I hope i'm wrong.
Goodluck, Nony.

Even if I had a chance to be progamer, there is no way I would choose SC2. I love it, but not enough to risk my career. I'd probably play Hearthstone or OW.

Given an opportunity to pursue any career I wanted for one year, I would not choose SC2 as my career path.

I m still sad that they made Tylers Tweet a news here at TeamLiquid. I m a fan and get the exictement, but I think it would have been more fair to just wait what happens...
