Casy moving to ACE

Casy

He was known for several aliases: iOi[Alive], Really[Alive], AdamaS[Alive], AdamaS, but the most famous among them all is Terran Casy, the man who won the 2006 ShinHan Bank OnGameNet StarLeague.

After the glorious days he had, he was involved in a controversy with his team (OGN Sparkyz) coach: Lee Myung Keun. It was an immense prose in the Korean pro-gaming scene, that everyone awaits on how things will unfold as if it's a Korean drama.

Gossip started about the contract costs, then it  was followed by the sour relationship which the sweetest can't even mend, isolated from team gatherings, and banned to participate in the ProLeague. Its more of a personal dispute between Casy and manager Lee: he left once due to his emotions, and swallowed his pride along with his father to renegotiate the case of the controversial pro-gamer.

In the end, it just didn't work out. There was a rumor that he'll be transferred to CJ Entus in exchange with Protoss Much, since his contract is still passive, but it didn't work out because of the amount that didn't materialize. He didn't have many options left, so he decided to apply for the Air Force ACE. The Korean military officers and the authorities within the joint organization hold the gabel, if he could be recruited.

If I'll not be able to play for the Air Force ACE, i don't have a choice but to quit professional gaming. - Casy

It didn't work out but his agent looked for other pro-gaming teams. After some months of plight, it went down to a new team called WeMade FOX (the old Pantech EX). His contract was fixed, and he was introduced in the ceremony on September 11 2007, as a new member of the team. Casy and the new franchise team, WeMadeFOX, started anew. They performed well but not good enough to make it to the play-offs. Again, they fell short one slot in the current season of the ProLeague. He recently revealed in an interview that he wants to join the Air Force ACE. This is his second time he'll seek for the particular team. Will he get his craving for what he desire or will he stay with the team which he tilted on in those sorrow days? Watch out for the development in his unpredictable professional gamer career.

WoW ACE will be really strong next season if the players can at least play at 80% of their top shape.

His game against July at the OSL, when he faked the FE, his SCVs drilled mines even though there was no CC at the nat expo. It caught July flat, and loss the game since Casy went aggressive: 2 rax & academy. He is so creative at that instance.

If you can't stand for something, you'll fall for everything
