One of the most famous Zerg players of all time and Golden Mouse winner, JulyZerg, announced that he will be transferring to the StarCraft 2 pro-scene in an attempt to be as active as he once was in BroodWar.
With this, the number of Korean former BroodWar pros that have transitioned to SC2 has grown even larger. JulyZerg is walking the same path that is now being trodden by players like Cool, Rainbow, Tester and many more.
In an article on Fomos.kr, JulyZerg explains that he will be part of a team that is currently in creation. He also sounds very confident about his SC2 pro career.
“
Because I didn't have many opportunities to play in official matches, I felt my purpose on the team [STX Soul] diminished. I really wanted to play in a match. During this time, I got to play Starcraft 2. At the beginning, I didn't have much interest in it, but over time, I got more and more interested and soon after I decided I wanted to be active as a gamer in Starcraft 2 as I got better at the game.

"I think the game has gotten more difficult compared to the original

It would be awesome to see such a talented player with big reputation around the community on the stage once again. Knowing JulyZerg, it is almost certain that he might be one of the visionaries of SC2.
