ah everyone beat me to it.
Ah well, at least the news is out!
And I'm rather surprised he'd come back to SC2. I always thought he'd be more at home with Brood War, but its always nice to see the opposite happen.

!!!

Didn't matter which game he came back to, this makes me very happy. Fantasy was just starting to hit his stride in sc2 when he went off to the military so it'll be interesting to see what he can do in LotV

Oh, cool! Don't know how well he'll do to even qualify for tournaments since Parting and MMA haven't been able to qualify for most tournaments since quite some time now. We need Code A back.

It finally is over~! Thank you to all the fellow members of forces who worked hard with me and lets keep in touch~! I decided that I will be returning as SC2 pro-player now. I may have excited some and disappointed some with my decision, but I chose what I think will be best for my abillities, so please cheer me on~!♡

wow, this is really surprising

never expected in my life that Fantasy would choose SC2 and ForGG would choose BW. That seems so weird per say; since it would have been the best in financial point of view that Fantasy choose BW and ForGG choose SC2

but in end of the day, it really isn't all about the money! Follow the #passion

Fantasy had started to "get it" and was in the midst of finding SC2 success when he went to do his military service. Maybe he felt like he had some unfinished business.

It's very obvious guys... Maru inspired him.

only to crash and burn then return to BW to cash in

I'm glad that he's doing what's best for himself. We already have Flash in BW, we don't need another great terran there too though I question if he can survive the new level of skill that BW has reached but that's for another thread.

It's so great to think of FanTaSy coming back! I would have loved to see him in BW, but he did play some of the most interesting SC2 games ever also, IMO. I hope he gets into GSL-qualifying shape quicker than Parting and MMA so far.

Well, I hope he sticks to it. IIRC ForGG said the same but ended up playing BW.
