You're not even a real fan, to be honest. You're not even looking this from Yellow's perspective. And to be frank that sickens me that you can make such a disgusting statement and also proclaim that you don't like him anymore, like he OWES you something. What would you have him do? Sit on the KT bench all the time, never having a chance to play in PL nor even advance past the MSL and OSL prelims? Is that what Yellow should still be doing? Being useless as far as being a player goes? Is him moving on with his life mean that he's KILLING BW or something? This goes the same with Boxer, Nada and July. Were they meant to spend the rest of their careers simply being bench-warmers for their respective teams or just become coaches? Did you even think about what THEY want? Did it occur to you that maybe some of them want to advance their pro-gaming careers further in another environment? Or must they cater to people like YOU who demand they stay in only one area for their entire lives? Who are you to say they're betraying BW? Will BW suddenly experience a massive upheaval that will tear it asunder? No, you're just a xenophobic BW elitist. You're just as bad as some of the SC2 fanatics here. Really, you're not intelligent with your hate. It's bigoted, biased and you insult Yellow by even claiming to like him. Do not post again about this Calm down rofl... but funny what u call disgusting already xD never saw the world?. | ||

I hope he does whatever is best for him. He played bw long enough. Let the guy do something else without being disappointed if it's not bw. | ||

Too bad. He was a role model for all, he should have stayed... Too many symbols left BW: Nada, Oov, Boxer, July, SaviOr, Nal_ra, Kingdom, Choja, Garimto.... And there's always those on second round like Luxury, Yarnc, ForGG, Sync... | ||

maybe SC2 competition will fire up now! give it a chance, some matches are really exciting (although not quite as exciting as great BW matches) my one wish would be for LuCifer to switch over, it's been a long time since I've been able to cheer for him T.T | ||

Why quit if he's doing so well? Yellow was placed on the Power Rank to commemorate his BW career before he retired. But in fact he'd long been a bit washed up as a player --- he hadn't impacted individual leagues since god knows when (2005? earlier?) and hadn't been playing a whole lot in proleague either. | ||

Yep, if you didn't know he is forever winner of second place except in special events where he gains bonjwa powers. | ||
