Biography[edit]

Moon eventually switched to a full-time StarCraft II practice in January 2012, as he joined Fnatic.^[4] He then parted ways with them December 11, 2012.^[5]

The prize money Moon earned in Warcraft III exceed $600,000 USD, while his StarCraft II earnings are approximately $26,000 USD.^[6]

Moon finished his mandatory military service in late 2015, and has returned to play Warcraft III professionally.
