That all kill vs SKT in Proleague (soO, Soulkey, Rain, and PartinG) That GSL finals vs soO, after which he was clearly the best player in the world The beginning of LoTV when again he was on top and culminated with beating TY in the GSL finals. It felt like Zest was completely untouchable and could take 3 bases off just 2 adepts | ||

Zest definitely gave us some unforgettable Proleague moments and helped keep KT Rolster relevant every season. The last GSL royal roader too…Will miss him. | ||

But, it had to come eventually. Surprising he was able to hold off going to the military for so long it was becoming a bit of a meme on it's own. | ||

As an SKT fan, I used to fear Zest during the Proleague SC2 days. I got back to watching pro SC2 consistently during the pandemic and came to be a big fan of Zest. I really love watching Zest's exciting playstyle as his often relentless aggression meant that his games are just the best to watch. I'm glad I got to see Zest pick up a GSL Super Tournament trophy recently but it does feel like he deserved more for his peak level. Zest was ultimately not quite consistent enough to win big tournaments frequently but he had a great career nonetheless and deserves all the respect he gets. All the best with retirement Zest! Fingers crossed I will get to see you at the top of pro SC2 again! | ||

Pity he couldn't win that 3rd Code S before he left. I hope he can come back strong in 2 years. Best of luck Zest! | ||

Boss Toss MC approved Zest as his successor. Zest dominated early LotV. Beat soO in the code S finals only to be outstrategized the next season's ro4 by soO. Zest had the better foundation but got tricked by the devious soO. Many metas were defined by the strategies of Zest. Lastly, the notorious Zest bank. | ||
