According to a recent interview by esports.com, LukeWillPwnU has officially retired from Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm. Luke "LukeWillPwnU" Williams was a staple of the NA Platinum ladder, often playing as many as fifty or sixty games per month.

LukeWillPwnU has recently turned 19, and cites his advancing age and lack of results as the reason for his declining interest in the game. "I was hoping to make Diamond this WCS season, you know, and when it didn't happen, I just felt really bad about the entire system." Luke said. "My ZvZ has definitely suffered, there are just so many great up-and-coming players out there."

LukeWillPwnU went on to state that he would be transitioning to League of Legends. He aims to break into Silver by the end of next month. Everyone here at esports.com wishes him the best of luck.

This post isn't aimed at making fun of any particular player. I really just wanted to write a mini-article in the style of that parody magazine that had a few issues on TL.

<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

It seems you just can't put "real life" away forever, League of Legends just catches up with you I guess...
