Korean Terran (T)ForGG, probably best known for his mech and mass hellion gameplay, which created terror and destruction on the EU server for ages, - as well as lucky kisses and unlucky widow mine hits -, has finished his time of military service in South Korea and will return to streaming SC2 without any delay. We don't know yet if this also means a return to progaming.

ForGG is a DreamHack champion and lived in Europe for a very long time.

Very off topic and I apologize, but that video reminded me of Taeja. What happened to him? Last I heard he had wrist problems and couldn't practice or play as much? I remember one game where he sniped an absurd number of Observers and that really stuck with me.

Anyway, glad ForGG is back!

TaeJa is also doing his military service. Although it may be the civil cervice I'm not sure.

Also TaeJa may not be coming back. He stated before he left his intention to become a teacher after completing his service.

ForGG is the only terran I follow on stream, he is very dedicated and talented, I almost cried when he won against life to claim his first major title.

Good luck in your comeback!!!

Now THAT is awesome news. ForGG's Dreamhack run was one of my favorite tournament runs of all time. Hope we get to see him do it at least one more time!

Has anyone ever un-retired from Starcraft 2 and reached the same level of dominance? It seems that everyone who is on top of the scene right now (both korean and foreigner) has been playing for a very long time and hasn't had extended time off. Hopefully he can do it!

I remember back in the day him and Polt were the highest level terrans regularly streaming. How things have changed.

Why? Do you need to hear the cries of a hundred burnt drones? Just mute the thing.
