Lim Yo Hwan, otherwise known as SlayerS BoxeR, is one of the world's most renowned gamers and is considered to be the best StarCraft player ever to play the game. He became famous with his devotion to the game and incredibly unique tactics. After joining the army he didn't have as much time to practice, but did not stop playing altogether.
After over a month he and the Korean Air force created a military progaming team. Despite that he still didn't have many appearances in the scene and most of his results were lower than expected.
The Emperor is coming out of the lull this year and will be making an appearance in the upcoming GomTV "Xnote Star Invitational" league which will kick off on February 17. His army duty will be over soon but it is unknown which team he will join.

BoxeR didn't quit. He didn't play during 2 or 3 months after leaving the MSL for the army one year ago but he played the Pro League with ACE since then.
Also, he played today the MBC Game offline qualifier (lost in groupstage) and is participating in a few invitational tourneys.
There is no come back, as he never left.
Let's hope he will have more time in the future again to practise and show his great skills he is famous for.
BoxeR keeps competing as much as the other players do.He has participate in all leagues possible since he joined the army (joined ROKAF):OGN's,MBC's and ProLeague
His results in OGN & MBC were pretty disappointed but BoxeR did very well in ProLeague.
He wasnt in OGN and played only few MBC matches.
And once again i didnt say he stoped playing, he was mostly playing only the team league. And because of that I wrote that he is makign a comeback. A comeback doesnt mean that he should have stopedplaying, a comeback can be expressed in more ways.
And yes i know that he played the qualifying matches for MSL, but that is this year allready :P
And im not a BoxeR hater and infact im a fan of his :)
He isn't in a new "league." Its just a 16 player invitational tournament - huge difference. He was invited because of his reputation.
will post youtube link if its uploaded ( if its even broadcasted )
boxer still showed great starcraft in the proleague with ACE ( ROKAF - Republic of Korea Air Force sc team ) he just was a bit off because he cant practise 10 hours a day like the other pro's but he still showed he is the EMPEROR! no doubts
and i hope and think he will join SKT ( his old team )
he must play for SKT
