Zhuang FOO....Best PvP Duelist in UO. Audition for So you think you can Dance.. OT but still good!

[Vexxed]

Anyway.... I just came across this, but Zhuang FOO was the GM of the FOO guild & probably the best PvP duelist UO's ever seen. I was in vent with this guy often enough to know that this is indeed him, but I just thought showing it to the rest of the UO community here would be interesting..

Enjoy.

!

ps.. if google leads you here Cole. PEON says hi !

 

[Redxpanda]

Hurry! Lets run do some champ spawns while he is in vegas lol

 

[Magdalene]

He's quite awesome.
You say guys like this play UO?
wow...

Aye Wow...

 

[G.v.P]

I'd rather see him win silver in the junior olympics but that's pretty cool

@ The M ladies.
The men that play UO have all sorts of hidden talents.

 

[startle]

Amazing! And humility to boot!

 

[Amber Witch]

Style, grace, positive energy, humility and pride. Impressive and beautiful. Any man that can dance all those different styles and practices martial arts and PvPs.. if only I were young again..

Is there anything we, as a Stratics family, can do to support Zhuang in this endeavor if it's confirmed to be him?

Kelmo, you have forever ruined that song for me now.

You can check Cole's Twitter Acc.

Twitter

Somewhere in one of his comments he mentions UO. I don't have a twitter acc. myself but I'm sure Cole would appreciate any congrats etc... from those of you that use twitter. Actually, it appears Cole is an aspiring actor as well, so any additional "hype" attached to his name is probably good for him.. heh..

LETS GO UO
LETS GO !!

= )

 

[Magdalene]

OK, is it possible to know if it's REALLY him?
In an ongoing contest maybe we could show UO community support somehow...

 

[Vexxed]

Hmm... Someone with a Twitter Account drop him a message with this link & tell him to post some old PvP pics with his Zhuang character? Honestly I was sure it was him after I heard his voice (many hours in Vent etc), but it was also a dead give away bc I remember him saying stuff like "gotta quit dueling man I have to go to BALLROOM dancing heh ) Hmm.. Maybe I'll make a twitter Account really quick heh.

 

[Amber Witch]

It's da man!
I tweeeeeted and just checked to see if there was a response.
Here it is:

@ColeHoribe Rumors are circulating on UO Stratics that you were GM of Foo Guild once upon a time? True?

Well, than tell him we keep our fingers crossed
He's good enough to make it without us, but anyway... we may have another "famous guy who once played" to add to the hall of fame.

Zhuang still plays somewhat. Last I dueled him was in December 2011, just a little over six months ago.
I would agree that he is bar none, the GREATEST mage duelist to ever play this game(east or west, i've dueled them all). In terms of speed, timing, and sheer talent, he is #1. A few can get close, but Zhuang will always be on top. The fluidity and speed in his dancing is highly reminiscent of his dueling style, and now I know why he is so insanely good at dueling.

Zhuang, I wish you the best of luck!

[Bob the Merchant]

Was always a pleasure to get my arse handed to me by him. Makes sense now why he was always so damn good!

 

[Amber Witch]

Next time take a video so we can all learn how he does it!

 

[SetItOff]

Damn cole! congratulations bro no one who deserves it more then you!

This guy has it right, there will never be someone who can match up or compare to this guy in dueling, anyone who says otherwise has some clear mental issues.

 

[Bryelle Vaughn]

He made it.. top 20!

 

[Vexxed]

ZHUANG FOO Top 20 woot!

As a huge fan of So You Think You Can Dance, and as (obviously ) a huge fan of UO - i find this news quite awesome and exciting!!! Thanks for putting the pieces together!

 

[Amber Witch]

Yes, Thanks to Vexxed! Wednesday night is the next round I believe. I don't watch TV but for this I will. The audience votes too so anyone that reads this and wants to put in a vote for Cole can do so. How cool is that!

 

[Vexxed]

Zhuang Foo (aka Cole Horibe) Makes TOP 10 !

 

[Ron Silverbeard]

Kelmo are you Carl Douglas.....

 

[kelmo]

Heyaw, *coughs*

 

[Manticore]

It always amazes me to see so many accomplished and talented people in real life who plays UO. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Aeon]

I use to duel him a lot on Lake Austin. They were fun to play with.

 

[Vexxed]

TOP 8 ! Zhuang Foo (Cole Horibe) Makes it 1 step closer.....

For those of you unfamiliar with the format, each of the contestants performed with an "All Star" from a previous season & then the 2 lowest scoring Male & Female dancers are selected & do a solo performance to try to save themself.. Anyway Cole wasn't in the bottom 2 & moves on to the TOP 8.

Cole "All Star" Cha Cha performance. Lots of Constructive criticism this wk heh.
