The Wc3 player, ToD, has decided to retire. This is possibly the most notable retirement since Creo in the Wc3 scene and ToD has also been shown on a lot of the GomTV VoDs as a spectator.
Sorry if this isn't relevant for TL, but seemed like pretty big news :O.

I would have liked if he explain why he was leaving.
|
I used to like him before he turned all BM and shit.

Maybe cauz he doesn't want to be the "fish" for low limit grinder's hunter ? ) Respects though, that was probably a very wise decision. Can't wait for starcraft 2 !
|
ToD has been around forEVER, time to hang it up I guess.
|
Hero @ war3 nub @ bw :D
j/k he can be proud of his achievements.
|
he one day realized there is more to life than gaming...
... then saw it was already too late for him and right now he's in a bar.

ToD retired im crying
|
|
Id like to know his reasons =/
|
w3 is more or less dying especially in france, and it seems that he doen't want to play anymore because we all have a time where the game isn't fun anymore you know.. He was about to participate the world eswc final but now that we all know games service (aka one of the biggest sponsor for eswc) went bankrupt and then there wasn't eswc coming so he took a "nap". I think that's the reason.

Hm i liked him too, i loved watching tod vs sky vods back in o7 when seed was giving commentaries but meh.
Seed was the reason i got back into starcraft
Seed commentated in the wcgs so he is pretty good
watch some of him at www.imbavid.com
I loved how tod used to chat in game and say stuff like "ADVANCED PRIEST TRAINING IS GOING UP! GET UR DEFS READY!!!"

He lists his country as South Korea and a French poster said it was obviously him.

Watching ToD play at Blizzcon was quite inspiring. I was playing WC3 somewhat competitively at the time, and he was doing things that were absolutely unheard of.
I'm sure if he really is retiring, he'll be back on another game (SC2 maybe?) in the future. ... Or he'll just start playing WC3 again. =P

He said he wont play SC2, he wont play poker, he wont continue to play wc3, he wont play dota.. he will follow the e-sport scene but not like before and i think he will start martial arts O_o

And so says most everyone who retires from esports, 3 months before diving back in.
