That's too bad, ForGGs aggressive style could be a lot of fun to watch. Unfortunately the impression I got was that when he failed to set the tempo of the game with his prepared strategy, he was too stubborn and didn't adapt well. Recently his late game sense was of lacking although he still had relatively strong macro.

Loved ForGG play style. I am sad hearing about his retirement. Hope that he will move on to SC2 :D

That was the first MSL I got into where ForGG won it. He seemed like a really smart player to be able to take down the best players of each respective race that year using well prepared timing pushes. I think that forever influenced my playstyle. I remember everyone saying "lucky win but he'll never beat Jaedong." and the protoss before Jaedong too, I forget who but I want to say Stork? No one thought he could do it, but they were solid wins. Sad that he's retiring.

He was argueably my favorite player as a result of my timing with getting into pro starcraft. He won a title which is more than most can say, very underrated player. He'd probably do good switching over to SC2 since this is a time where a smart build order can bring in a lot of success. We'll see eh.

I know I'll miss his play. Granted he wasn't doing so hot lately, I really enjoyed the 1-2 Terran punch he and Flash provided last year in PL. I hope he transfers to SC2 eventually, as it's a venue where I think he can excel while giving me somebody I want to watch.

Whatever is going on, I hope he does well in his future endeavors.

Never liked Forgg, and never liked KT, but I still am upset that he left. Its not good for the game when players leave when they still have lots some to contribute. The timing is odd, but I won't make the same jokes about timing attacks that so many others have.

If the perfectman-hogil-midas group wasn't the weakest MSL group in years, it would seem to be now. Glad that that terrible group is on the same day as one of the most interesting groups.

Something smaller than his leaving, or how the MSL will shape out: I wonder where this leaves tempest. Will KT recall him from the dreamleauge (or are they even allowed to)? Tempest is a better option than hoejja, barracs, anyppi, or roo (who iirc is also in the dreamleaue so that one might be a moot point) in most situations. And KT isn't in the best position to sacrifice immidiate standings so they can experament with their lineup.

Hope he isn't leaving for a really serious reason, like family health problems or match fixing. GL HF Forgg

This is really sad for his team. They can't afford to have players retiring like this. Ah well I'm sure ForGG has his reasons.

>.> It's hilarious that people are so selfish. He was really good.

I can't wait for Flash to retire just so I can say, "Darn! I thought he was going to win his next game!"

I hope this isn't the last we hear of ForGG It seems unexpected, no? SC2 would be nice!

I picked Perfectman out of insanity. Do I get points for Earth-shattering retirement predictions?
