Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to make a formal post on my withdrawal from blizzard's WCS. I put a lot of effort into training and performing my best at WCS:Canada and WCS:North America, and these tournaments were probably two of my best, so making this call was really heartbreaking. Despite making the decision at the beginning of the year to put school ahead of gaming, when I was given a choice between going to one of the largest events in eSports history or likely failing a course and thus my program I was really quite torn. Ultimately there was nothing I could do to make it work with the administration so I was forced to withdraw. I apologize to everyone that supported me and was looking forward to seeing me play in China.
Best of luck to EG's Suppy, he is an incredible player with an awesome personality that I'm sure will do a great job in my stead.

Tough call bro, would be torn in your position  best go win CSL instead to make up for it ^_^
|
<3 chris sorry to hear. Best wishes in your classes and I hope you continue to have success.
|
I respect this decision alot, I'm sure it wasn't easy. ostojiy fighting! 
|
Sorry to hear that you had to drop out of WCS. Hope you can do well in school.
|
Hey man, it happens, nothing you can do but roll with it. That, and plan ahead to kick major butt in the next WCS (or CSL). I accept no Ostojiy substitutions, however, so while Suppy may rock I'll be looking forward to your play once everything is all sorted out.
|
Respectable decision, now ace that class
|
Thanks for being a boss, get them next time.
|
Wow what a choice to make....I'm sorry it had to come to that. best of luck in your studies
|
gogo chris next time!
|
Awh man! Such a tough decision. No regrets man!
Also gl to Suppy!
|
Shame it couldn't work out, you were definitely one of the stronger competitors (Suppy's a pretty good replacement though!). Smart but hard decision; go show that class who's boss!

damn, that sucks, but it's good to have firm priorities ^^
gl to the most superior of wolves!
|
HUGE SHAME ): Damn man, I really wanted to see you too!
|
that stinks. Keep on keeping on though
|
Too bad, Osto, but you are making the right choice. You are studying for a reason. Don't waste all that hard work for one tournament. You'll make more money from your extra qualifications than you would get from this WCS even if you won it.
|
I'm sorry Ostojiy, keep studying you are going to do amazing .

|
Sorry to hear. That had to be extremely tough.

failing school should never be an option =[
gl with your class; hope to see you do well at your next event
|
Grades definitely come first, but know that we're proud of you for making the call for your future, and support you in your doing so!
|
School killing eSports lol
|
It sucks, but not failing a course is the only choice even if you didn't fail the program. You made a wise decision.
|
Torn on this. Excited Suppy gets to head to China. Feel bad for ostijiy.
|
sad to hear dude. you made the correct decision in the long run, and you stuck to your principles. i can only imagine how hard that decision would have been so im very impressed.
GL to suppy
