Oh yes!
I can't wait to see him compete in SC2 again and hopefully see some outside-the-box plays/strats from him.

I am surprised as well to see him go back to SC2 instead of Broodwar. So many people were hyped about him going back to BW.

Thinking about it, maybe he has already several team offers in SC2. EG? TL? Maybe a Korean team?

BW only has a real scene in Korea and other than ASL there is nothing else. Maybe he thinks he can make more money in SC2 since it's much more popular and there are more tournaments outside of Korea. I am sure he did the math Streaming BW vs competing for a team and winning tournaments in SC2.

Afreeca has a lot of whales that donate a ton of money (balloons). You can look up By.Tyson's numbers, when he was an active streamer he'd get ~75'ish viewers and he'd get about 3k a month, at least that's what i remember reading.

But yea Afreeca streamers mainly rely on donations, lucky for them even the low end pros still get a lot of donation and sponsored/event matches, it's more than enough to justify being a full time BW streamer.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/brood-war/512299-top-10-earners-of-july

^ For example you can see how much Free was getting back in 2016, he was like a middle of the pack streamer. There's not much separation between midd to low tier pro BW streamers.

EG left SC2, why would they sign up mostly forgotten SC2 player that used to be almost legend in Brood War days?

Honestly I can't see why any SC2 would sign him up. Fantasy has never been top dog in the game and coming out of military service - I don't see him making any kind of splash.

BW has a ton of tournaments outside of ASL. There's atleast 6 tournaments going on at this very moment. As well as a teamleague.

Fantasy never came close to winning anything in sc2, he was way better in BW, he probably just like sc2 more or at least the sc2 competitive scene.

Well, as others have said, I too would have preferred him returing to BW. I hope he finds success in SC2, though.

My favourite player of all time

I do wish he returned to BW instead, but I'll be super happy watching him play SC2 as well.
