Well he has been mediocre at best for the 2 years, since he came Back. So this wasn t realy shooking Out of the 6 GSL seasons in 2019 and 2020, he failed to qualify in 2019 S1, 2019 S2 and 2020 S2. In the 3 Seasons, he actually made it to Code S, he won a total of a single Map. In the Chinese Team League he also wasn t pulling his own weigth and struggled even against a lot of Chinese player not named TIME | ||

Mass marine medivac and sometimes tanks no longer as viable as he could pull off it in WOL and HOTS? Or maybe he could not keep up with the multitasking? To be honest Bomber was insanely good but I do not remember his apm being the fastest. He also relied on hitting certain timings a lot. | ||

His highs were astronomically high but he'd have a lot more lows than other top terrans imo. He was honestly still a beast in early HotS but his style did always seem a little dated even at that time. Still was a big fan so best of luck to him in the future. | ||

I remember watching Day 9's analyses of his latest TvP builds in 2012 and practicing them on ladder. His heavy macro parade push TvZ play was always awesome to watch. As was his rivalry with Scarlett. Back in 2012-13 I had a lot more free time and loved chilling out on his and Polt's streams. Good times. All best in his future endeavours! | ||

By the time he moved out the creep was at his nat lol. GGs, was fun to watch him play. u think he is macro terran bc you only see him in certain games. guy has the most insane marine micro. impossible to win. your stalkers just can't hit them. | ||

I remember thinking his style of TvZ was extremely overpowered after watching him win MLG Raleigh many games playing on ladder in like 2012 when he came over. literally couldn't touch his bio. it was like playing another race edit: this is the same time ryung came over also. they were both ladder gosus. protosses had to rethink all their small unit micro comps | ||

Great player with huge peaks and flaws too, made following him that much more fun (and painful). Peak Bomber macro especially in the early days of the game was just awe-inspiring | ||
