Will the mystery of how one pronounces his name finally be solved this time around?

Good to see, he was coming along nicely before military service intervened.

Surprised to see him as I swear word on the street was that both he and Trap weren’t returning, but a pleasant surprise nonetheless!

I wonder if it’ll be easier to get back in shape with our current tournament void, or harder. I imagine it’ll be easier to find private practice as nobody’s really competing for much at the minute, but on the flipside there’s not even many weeklies to test yourself in something like a tournament setting.

I believe he actually said in an interview with alpha x iirc how it was pronounced.

Poor Zoun, stuck with the email adress he created when he was 12 years old.

I'm amazed some Korean pros can keep up their motivation at this time. There could be no tournament scene at all in Korea going forward!

So is it Zoun or Zoun?

it is time to interpret competitive events differently. the last surviving member of each race should get a trophy and be viewed as an event winner So each event has 3 winners and then for fun a grand champion is crowned.

I hope he can makes some deep runs. He would be such a refreshing face, and Protoss needs another hero, we've only got the one =D

Yes, and I alrdy sorta do, let me tell you herO is a god.

For instance, herO had two players he couldn't beat at the WC, but Clem is heavily favoured by race and still I don't think he would beat Cure and Maru that herO by extension took care of. So who's the real winner here?

Serral, since when Maru or Cure take out Clem, he wins this without much trouble?

That's true. So he was right, herO, serral and clem are the shared victors of ewc.

We can remake the cover art with their pics in place of Sarah, Jim, and whoever the protoss guy was.

Fenix is the 3rd wheel, just like Protoss is in competitive play.

ZouN is a nice addition to the protoss rolster, often how protoss breaks tournament play is with overwhelming numbers, when the top z's/t's cannot possibly prepare for all of them.
No protoss will ascend to herO status though, he's peak protoss play on this patch, whether you like his play or not.
