Wasn't arguing about SC2 vs LoL.

And he's by no means alone (notes Kim Carrier interview). It implies there's no opportunities in BW anymore, and even if SC2 wasn't his taste as a player, surely you'd think it was closer to his interests than a DotA game. As I said the very first SC progame that I saw was a Boxer Vs Yellow match.
LoL taking over seems inevitable, but that doesn't make it right. The best conclusion I can make is that the Match fix scandal did real, permanent harm, like worst of the doomsayers predicted, to the RTS scene.

I'm starting to wonder if all of these twos are intentional. Maybe his Kong Kurse is just that strong, though.

They are probably doing it on purpose now...

Oh wow, inferior to any RTS? Please enlight me your thoughts. How can very different games with big e-Sports scenes be so easily told as inferior and superior?

GL StormZerg, proly not gonna follow u on this one but I'll always keep u in my heart ^_^

I enjoy playing LoL because it's just some casual fun, but I really don't get the whole competitive scene. It's not a hard game at all to play and it's not interesting to watch for me.

I really hate LoL. In my opinion it is just a worse version of DotA/DotA2. This game only includes decision making and nothing more is required to be a pro at that game. You can´t deny your own creeps or anything. I respect the decision of Yellow even if I think it´s probably one of the worst decision he could have made at all.... This post is surely very disrespectful to the "LoL scene" but this is only my impression.

Agreed.

What are the requirements to become coach? Knowledge of game, or to be the best in team?
I am happy he is still here, I hate when heroes just disappear But he is still here.

"Oh look! XY ex-BW progamer is the coach of Z team in LoL. It must be a good game if he chosed it and get that far to became a coach. So I will try the game, and watch the events because of him" This happened when Boxer switched to sc2 as well. I think the only reason behind Yellow chosed LoL is that the give more money. But i could be wrong.

It's too bad that he's coaching instead of doing SC2, especially after he tried so hard to get Code A. But, whatever, as you said: at least he's still in eSPORTS.

Good luck to him, I guess. I don't really follow LoL, but if it's really growing that much in Korea, it might be the right decision by Yellow to do it. For the SC2 Code A thing, I remember that he actually failed to make a deep run, which might very well be the reason for him to stop playing it. The qualifiers are extremely stacked, so it would have taken tremendous amounts of training for him to get trough (something he was maybe not willing to go through). Anyways, gl in the future, Storm Zerg.

Couldn't care less about LoL, but I hope Yellow and his team succeed.

I think this is a good move for Yellow considering his team beat the best NA team (CLG) yesterday in the OGN champions tournament CLG are also considered a top 3 team in the world.. Also at the match next to Yellow was the coach of oGs (TheWind).. Apparently oGs might follow into the steps of StarTale and MVP and also make a LoL team. I hope some foreign sc2 teams add a LoL team.

Is there any uploaded youtube vids about OGN LoL matches?

The way they absolutely rolled over CLG was hilarious. Choo-choo here comes the gosutrain
