I find his stream extremely entertaining.
I love him as a player and a respect him as a person !
I feel bad for him every time he fails to meet his standards !
He deserves to make a good living playing this game !
I love Starcraft .

It must be so weird to be a pro and to read a writer describing yourself with such grandiloquence. Nice write-up though.

Not sure about Snute never allowing himself to succumb to his own tendencies though, I think I recall him being overly careful and defensive a few times in the WCS circuit.

Agreed. I don't have single bad thing to say about him. Hope his hard work and effort reward him in the near future.

Man I genuinely hope that Snute has a successful Blizzcon run, he's been my favorite foreigner since 2012 and it's always so sad to see him sad.

Snute fighting!!

That herO Snute series was the first televised pro match of sc2 I ever watched. Followed closely behind herO vs Jaedong in the same day. That was half the reason I decided I wanted to play competitively. Snute we will always have your back, even through the roughest of times. I will always cheer for you no matter your result. You and soO and ByuL have made me look at progamers in a completely different way with your stories of near success and crushing failure. I never thought I could care so much about someone I don't even know. GL in blizzcon, your an inspiration.

I didn't think it was that uncommon. Life never really got the sAviOr treatment where the entire community acted as though he was the devil incarnate despite their similar situations. I'm not really sure why (not that I'm disappointed - just curious).

Because he was a young kid who threw two games, as opposed to leading and coordinatnig an organised match-fixing ring.

Still, he jeopardized the integrity of the scene and should not be allowed back.

But honsetly, I don't think we shouldn't mention him, that seems kinda stupid. He was the God of Zerg for a long time.

No matter what, I just want Snute to do well enough that he is happy with himself.

I hope he stays motivated after a good result and keeps going!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Snutes solid defensive play will always make him a contender. I think he has a decent shot.

Why are there so many whites at Blizzcon? Did they change the format to have affirmative action for foreigners?

Ahh, I didn't realize he led and coordinated it. Thanks for the correction.
