Today is a great day for the eSports community as Fredrik 'MaDFroG' Johansson is coming back to the eSports scene after several years of inactivity. MaDFroG was one of the best Undead players in Warcraft III during his prime, having finished second of the prestigious ESWC in 2003 and 2004 after losing respectively to another Swedish legend, Alborz 'HeMaN' Haidarian and the Korean Under superstar Dae Hui 'FoV' Cho.

Who could forget him after all he has done for Warcraft and his legendary mass gargoyles strategy against the Night-Elf race.

Besides creating this strategy, he is also one of the first Warcraft III players having gone to Korea. We haven't seen MaDFroG in a major tournament since his retirement in 2005 except his short comeback for the ShadowLeague: The Trophy of Legends last year.
