After failing to qualify in Code A a couple seasons ago, we never heard anything about him anymore. No news since, is there any update on YellOw in SC2? I was really looking forward to him coming but it seemed like he had no chance in the scene.

Definitely seems like it. He can do whatever makes him happy and I'm very glad that he did the one season to begin with, as it was nice to see. I don't think we will see him be playing, but I could be wrong.

He got eliminated from Code A qualifiers second round I believe then he stopped trying.

Probably he was tired of progaming in general. Poker is a very common transition for a lot of starcraft players.

I would love to see him play again, even if he doesnt win gsls, 2nd would suffice.

He saw that we already had a dedicated Kong and didn't feel like fighting for 2nd place

OT: idk I haven't really heard from him after his code A stuff.

He is doing other stuff like showingup in Korean LoL commercials, he probably won't do it again unless GOM offers to make a show out of it again. At his age few people want to be a progamer still.

I didn't enjoy watching his show because I felt this emotion about him that he did not want to play SC2. And everybody forced him into a situation he could not refuse (not just Boxer).

He never seemed motivated or even remotely interested in the GOM series. Not surprised that he stopped right away.

Yea... if you watched the Nal_ra series, you would notice a marked difference in attitude between the two.

The storm zerg is great and all, but he really is done and should be left alone rather than constantly pestered to continue his career. I mean that in terms of motivation, he was motivated sure, but not the same kind of crazed motivation you would see from a kid who ran away from his parents to give it his all in professional SC2...
