RIP Space

He has finally passed away.  While it's not unexpected it still comes as an unwelcome shock.  I'm not sure that a whole lot else needs to be said, except that what he achieved was absolutely extraordinary.

RIP Space.

And a bit of background for those who don't know him.

Quote
Space suffered from the age of 11 from a rare inveterate muscled disorder, which would eventually mean his entire nervous system would shut down one day. Space played on a few teams such as NoA, Go (a friendly Korean team which had players like Shy, FoCuS, Ohjie, MinHyuk, Kei among others) and he even played for almost a year on Fnatic. Communicating with any Korean player is difficult, but we made it work with him.

He made a name for himself when he played in the Afreeca WarCraft League, in several seasons, he took down big players. In the fourth season he made it all the way to the finals to take on SK’s Lyn, he lost eventually as everyone knows what kind of an uphill battle it is versus Orc as Undead and add to that it was Lyn in his prime. But that does not rob Space of his achievement of having slain the best of the Korean gamers for a long time.

I was hoping that this will not happen...
RIP Space.
