If you haven't read the thread for Jaedong it was basically a fan made art book about Jaedong made by tl users and then sent to him. So someone get to it ^.^ | ||

And he's always exciting to watch. You can reliably expect that every single game he will surprise you, and the guy's micro is still some of the best in the world (watch his marauder split to dodge fungals in his games vs Xelos on day9's website. I've never seen anyone do something like that. EVER.) I could rant on and on about how much I respect and admire the guy, but I'll stop here. And for all the haters, odds are you'll never make anywhere near as much money as he does just by existing, these days. If that man started a laddering stream on TL, he would break the damned internet.

And most players (I'm looking at you, Idra) do nothing but perpetuate that. Encouraging real, mutual respect (the ceremonies and the like are obviously great, but this anonymous internet warrior stuff isn't) between all players, not just the top tier, is important. After all, who the hell wants to play a game with people who can't act like adults in the least? Let alone watch it? Ever wonder why HoN was such a failure for new players? Yeah, that kind of attitude is seeping through SCII just as hard. | ||

it is truly unfortunate that he did fall to code B but noone should ever dare say that he has fallen Whether he has a keyboard or not, whether if he plays starcraft or any other game, he's a man that should be respected. Whether later on, if he becomes a commentator, coach, player, ambassador(4 ESPORTS!) a game designer, actor or businessman he will always be for esports and his heart speaks for that | ||

Yeah, that kind of attitude is seeping through SCII just as hard. Hon was such a failure for new players because it's a really hard game. Basically Dota in harder mode. Which is saying something because Dota didnt do well with new comers. | ||
