  RagnaroK Hee Bum, has joined PSISTORM Gaming Shin Hee Bum will move to USA and is looking to play in WCS, once he obtains P1 visa. The Zerg player nowadays is a known streamer in the Korean and foreign community, but he qualified for the last 2 seasons of GSL and used to post good results, especially known for his GSTL performances, for teams TSL, IM and AZUBU

Looking at Bunny's LotV vs foreigner (off and online) history, there is isn't much there. However, Bunny tends to do well against the lower foreigners and worse against the top foreigners. | ||

I'd still favour Bunny in a series against Neeb, although (especially in the current state of TvP) I can definitely see Neeb winning. Neeb's struggled even with the lesser korean terrans like jjakji iirc | ||

He lost 1-2 last year, though he also went 2-3 against TY in the GSL vs. The World, and I feel like TY was a much better TvPer than jjakji. Neeb hasn't played enough against Korean Terrans offline in general, though he has certainly played Koreans of Bunny's level or higher and won against them in an online setting (of course online being a much different setting than offline). | ||

I guess we could call him HB just like Jaedong and JD. But it's Heebeom for now. | ||

Yes, afterwards he wasn't doing that great in general, so I wouldn't really say, that Korean Terrans were his problem. I'm just surprised how people come to this conclusion. I don't think there are that many foreign protosses in general who are at top level. Namely, Neeb and Showtime. | ||
