Hello Teamliquid. So this will most likely be my last blog. I've decided it's about time to officially retire from professional/attempts at being professional at SC2. I've had a great time, Met a lot of awesome people, Played for some great teams, and lived/travelled to amazing places. I don't regret anything I've done in the past 2 years, I wish I could have had better results but life isn't always like that, and I know when I have to move on.

For those of you that don't know me, I started off as a Recruit for Team Legion last year starting in March. I moved to the Ministry of WiN pro house in Warsaw, Poland to practice full time. My time there was short due to a family illness. I had a great time there, I met awesome players and really enjoyed playing SC2. I felt a lot of improvement and after going to bed playing nearly 12 hours of SC2 I wanted more. I wish I could have stayed my full 3 months, I think I would have improved at such a rapid rate, but life is like that. Got to take the good with the bad. I got to live with Snute, Cytoplasm, and Wilko who I'm still great friends with. They were all very inspirational, Snute is probably the hardest working player I've had the chance to meet. When I left I was in a bit of a lazy state, I didn't practice much and had wrist injuries to deal with but still hung onto my spot with Legion until they were absorbed by FXO in October. I was the team captain of FXO.NA and I loved everyone I played with. The team felt like a big family, but sadly there wasn't enough support for the team to continue so it fell apart =[

Other than that I've travelled to 2 MLGs. Placed very poorly but had a great time at both. Met lots of awesome people and learned a lot. I still love this game and will continue to play casually but I won't be putting in half as much time as I use to.

Sorry this blog is terribly written. I wrote it in about 5 mins and didn't want to go on to much. Thanks everyone for every thing. I had a great time and I hope the best for everyone I've met!

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the words of support. I'm going to Korea in February to study. Starting with their KLI (Korean Language) Program and decide what I want to major in afterwards.
