Awww, too bad.

I don't like seeing all these players retire.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

yeah I think that was in that interview with Artosis

I really liked really. No pun, I promise.

No but seriously, he was one of my favorite terran's to watch. I remember when Day9 did a daily of him destroying JangBi which at the time was #1 vT ELO of all time. Only then did I realize how great and intelligent his vs P really was.

You will be missed, really. :p

I think he has depression while playing and like he always grunt after he loses. He was the ACE player of ESTRO and now he playing as 4th player competing spot with Light on Wonjin.

Wow, this is bullshit.
The guy is so young, and Ive seen him performing so well.
I have nothing against SC2, but if retires and becomes a SC2 player, Ill be in a mix of confused and mad.
Someone as good as him, with a grip for Starcraft, shouldnt been retiring like that.
JangBi will go the finals.

I remember he was asked if he would let his son be a progamer and really answered no way.

You know estro terrans are quite good. And he was the best of the bunch

Solid Terran, sad to see him leave. I was wondering when he was going to retire though, he always looked like he hated being in that booth... Anyway, GL to him.

Sad to see Really go. I wonder if a lot of these retirements are because some players feel that BW doesn't have a lot of time left, and since they haven't won much in their career so far they feel that even if they get good enough to win a starleague, BW won't be around long enough for them to reap the rewards of becoming one of the best.
