I got some advice from Soulkey that INnoVation was weak against roach/ling/bane builds and I went up 2-0 using them.

this made me laugh

"I think Inno is weak to roach/bane busts."

"Why would you think that?"

"Well, it's just a hunch....."


Man, those first few days at the SKT house must have been really awkward between soO and Inno.

On another note, soO played the ASL qualifiers (Brood War) for fun and nearly made it through. His mechanics are off the charts.

Are there vods of this?

So what kind of pretentious fanfiction TL wankery do we have this time?

soO, the 6 time GSL finalist, wrote this by himself. TL writers then edited and translated it. What you see is soO's story written by himself.


This makes me unspeakably happy. I love that soO is engaging with us, he should know he has our wholehearted support!! 어윤수 화이팅!!!

I remember always rooting for soO's opponent in the finals because it made for an even more amazing story every time he got 2nd place. I forgot about the human behind the tag. If soO makes the finals this time, I'll be cheering like mad for him no matter what.

Good article and nice to see his thoughts. 6 second place finishes is maddening though. Amazing that he hasn't went mad from that lol. Best of luck soO! On that note, I would've liked to see him make it past the ASL qualifiers. His Jin Air OSL run was amazing and he almost beat Jangbi back then. I think he can make it far regardless of what game he plays nowadays.

I'm curious is this a translation of something Soo wrote or, is it excerpts from an interview?

edit: nvm, I just read the bottom of the article. Its cool to get Soo's thoughts on his career in his own hand.
