But there are plenty of 28yo cs pro for example. | ||

After the retirements by the greatest Broodwar legends from SC2, the presence of MMA is highly required. That final match against DRG in the Blizzcup is one of the greatest even by now, so people who wonder why people get hyped that much - watch this match for a good start. | ||

People will make up all sorts of excuses for him, but after 9 months of embarrassing losses to koreans and foreigners alike, he will accept a face-saving assistant coaching job for LoL or possibly EA Hockey. Remember where you heard it first! On a more serious note, I do not share the excitement. I don't believe much in comebacks, be it rock stars uniting for a new album or former athletes getting back in the game. Very few come-backers seem to make anyone happy beyond the press release (except possibly the most devoted fan). With all that being said, MMA, prove me wrong! | ||

I don't think MMA will gain the same level he has before but i'll still support him, he was once my fav terran to watch (for his insane TvZ), do you have his stream ? | ||
