If there's one thing to get a discussion going (whether that is eSports or conventional sports), it's to start a "greatest of all time discussion" haha

And in SC2, it's nice that we don't have a clear consensus GOAT, which spurs some discussions. In Brood War, I think the Flash has ended the discussion long ago on who is the GOAT BW player

I always liked Maru's, Gumiho's or even TY's playstyles more.

But Innovation was a cornerstone of the sc2 scene, a fixed star at the firmament, the one who dominated the era of korean terran domination.

Glory to the machine!

Best of luck to you INno, you will be missed. See you soon, hopefully.

To think that INnoVation brought his rather successful, late-KesPa Brood War career to what is arguably the most consistently high level SC2 career of all time is absolutely incredible. He is the macro Terran that "just made more units". These retirements are always sad but on the other hand maybe it's overall for the best: the guy's got nothing left to prove.

Good luck in the military and thanks for being a staple of the StarCraft community.

Farewell INnoVation, the epitome of macro play. You have gifted us with so many good games, good luck!

I still remember to be copying the build orders following the tip of the casters to learn from a person like innovation.
Hoping to store the rememberings from the moments this person gave to us with his hardship and commitment.

Hope this person can continue inspiring and guiding peoples everywhere he goes,
like a mother who decorates the entire book from a children so she can eager to go study with his book again.

Sorry to bump this thread, but does anyone know how Innovation is doing?

We are nearing a year and a half since he left for the military, does anyone have any information if he's playing any SC2 or brood war and plans to return?

I really miss Bogus.

Not sure how he's doing, but I think the consensus was that he would not be returning to SC2.

I heard he might join T1 LOL as coach. And Trap said he would not come back after military.

Is that true? But, many ex Sc players claimed before that they won't return. Ultimately, they returned afterwards.

His younger brother is their AD carry, so it doesn't seem too unusual, but I sure bet that'd be an awkward dynamic!
