I remember a friend of mine who really liked you a lot back when I used to avidly follow SC2. I stopped for my own reasons which I won't derail this thread with, but I'm sure she'll be sad to hear that you're moving on to something else.

Best of luck to you.

I'd really suggest getting into the athletic training major if you want to do anything with athletes at all. From there on you can decide to just keep that, or take the CSCS (certified strength and conditioning specialist) test and add that on to your credentials, but I would really encourage you to look into the AT avenue.
Luck makes talent look like genius.

This retirement thread really ticked me off. You haven't streamed or competed or done ANYTHING in a year. Now you decide to make a retirement thread which everybody hates seeing to begin with and then take a cheap shot saying SC2 being in decline influenced your decision but not really. Really? Just hit the door and be thankful you got to freeload off this game. Those of us who still love and play the game don't want to hear you talking about the games decline in your pitiful retirement thread. Why not say something positive to inspire the up and coming pros? The same goes for "Idra" and his cheap shots in his "retirement thread".

Anyway, have fun sniffing another guys junk in your BJJ escapades brah.

Ya that's a little frustrating, but honestly just because he writes a thread to say bye to his fans and the scene and to give an update on what he's thinking about doing as a transition doesn't make him a "freeloader" or whatever. I would've loved to see some more positive posts and no cheap shots, but hey that's out of my control so there's no reason letting it ruin my day.

Peace out Machine, you were a chill dude and it sounds like you are happy with your decision, good luck man.
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.

Definitely one of the nicest guys in the scene.
Sadly, what many people thought was coming came at last.

Sorry to hear you didn't achieve some of your goals in SC2 result wise, but best of luck on your future endeavors Machine.

GL in going back to school Machine. And thanks for giving us an announcement on what we knew was coming so that we could have some closure and give you the kudos you deserve.

I thought you were really cool when I first met you back at MLG 2012 in Anaheim. Even if I called you, Idra, to tease you.
Thank you for the hard work
Play to improve
