"Jys" up against NesTea in his first GSL

Three weeks after WeRRa's dissolution in October 2010, Dragon (under the name "Jys") qualified for the round of 64 in Season 3 of the GSL, showing remarkable play against Season 2 winner NesTea.[3] He was picked up for the SlayerS team shortly thereafter, along with former WeRRa teammate Cella.

BoxeR mentioned practicing with Dragon, then playing under the ID Seo Yeon Ji, to improve his TvT in a GSL Season 2 interview before Dragon finished his public service duties.[4]

For some time, Dragon wasn't able to move into the SlayerS team house due to his work commitments. He stated on stream that he will enter the team house on the 26th of October 2011, but won't be allowed to stream anymore. As of December 2011, Dragon is back home and has resumed streaming again. Destiny has announced a partnership where he will upload VODs of Dragon's stream.[5]

He plays Random at a high Master level on the South Korean server.

Dragon had originally left SlayerS to put aside professional gaming for a while to fully focus on work,[6] but after a change of mind decided to look for a new team.[7]

On March 6, 2012, it was announced that Dragon had joined team Millenium.[8] On May 3, 2012, Dragon arrived at the Millenium team house to practice there for the months to come. He left the French team on December 3, 2012.[9]

He would later join Meet Your Makers along with fellow Korean and former WeRRA teammate PhoeNix. [10] He left MYM on April 1, 2013 after its SC2 team disbanded in order to focus on LoL.

[edit] 2012

On February 28, 2012, it was announced that Playhem would be sponsoring Dragon at IGN ProLeague Season 4.[11] He played in the open bracket and made it to the round of 16 and was eliminated by GanZi 2-0.

Dragon played in the 2012 Global StarCraft II League Season 2/Preliminaries. He made it to the round of 8 in his group and was eliminated by LosirA 2-1.

Dragon was invited to the Lone Star Clash where he played viOLet in Round 1 and lost 2-0. He then dropped to the loser's bracket and was eliminated by Destiny 2-1.

[edit] 2013

On May 18th, Dragon was announced to have joined the Clarity Gaming roster.[12]

[edit] Controversy

Using a smurf account, Seo Yeon Ji, Dragon participated in various online tournaments. In particular, he participated in A1 KotH where he finished 1st in September 2010’s overall ranking. Based on this result, he was invited to play in A1 StarCraft II Tournament #2 which invited top 6 players from KotH and 2 other players.

In the first round of the tournament, he played against TheStC and won. Soon after the match, TheStC wrote in PlayXP that “Seo Yeon Ji used absurd counter build order without scouting. I know that Seo Yeon Ji is MioWerra’s smurf account and MioWerra has been doing stream-cheating online.”[13]

After speaking with TheStC and members of WeRRa, Dragon publicly apologized to TheStC, members of oGs and WeRRa. After Dragon was accused of maphacking, streamcheating and match fixing on PlayXP-forums,[14] he then replied that "he was sorry for what he had done" but didn't go into detail which parts of the allegations were true. Later, when he joined SlayerS, he admitted maphacking when BoxeR asked him about the matter. Furthermore, he stated that he would “never dream of other tournaments, televised matches, or pursue a career as a pro-gamer.”[15]

WeRRa’s clan master, Gundam, and vice clan master, Cella, also apologized publicly and Dragon was expelled from WeRRa. WeRRa disbanded a month later, after another scandal surrounding its clan master Gundam.

After getting expelled from WeRRa, Dragon joined SlayerS clan. He succeeded in qualifying for GSL Season 3 in November 2010 which led to a public outcry. Despite public pressure, GOMTV took no action against him. After getting eliminated by NesTea in the first round, he wrote an apology for breaking his earlier promise. Mr. Chae from GOMTV also released a statement explaining their stance on the matter.[16]
