Really sad to see all these old BW legends leaving. Which legends are left? Boxer, July, and Nada all are trying their hands at SC2. Yellow joined the dark side. Anytime, Midas, and now Reach have retired. I hope he snipes Bisu in the PL finals as one last retirement present for the fans. | ||

The last of the originals will be gone soon. For Reach's sake it's probably for the best. KT didn't field him even in meaningless games at the end of the season. Hell they even sent perfectman twice but no Reach. Nonetheless there can only be one ending to this fairy tale. Bisu will be sent out in the proleague finals ace match in anticipation of facing God, but the the camera pans to inside the booth and instead of Flash it's the Mantoss. Reach crushes Bisu with pure zealots and completes the KThree-peat. | ||

On March 28 2012 16:22 Ryo wrote: I can't access the gamechosun article but according to one of the DES articles, KT offered Reach a coaching position or even an officer job like the one Xellos has at CJ but he declined. He intends to do something unrelated to esports and work in society just like a regular person. After 12yrs as a progamer, he wants to experience life outside of esports. Edit: Yup, Fomos article also says he will be leaving the esports industry. Reach's retirement ceremony will be held sometime after the Proleague finals. How manly, he was offered a safe path but he decides to go his own way, admirable. I was kind of happy to read that he wants to do something outside of esports. For a lot of progamers, it's really all they know. Apart from the army, I get a sense that they don't really have much real world experience since they're in the dorms most of their career. So to read that he's going to venture out on his own is pretty cool. I got the same feeling reading about Shark touring Europe on his own, too. Would be so cool if there was some All-stars event this year, and he played one last game for his fans. | ||

Reach and TossGirl are in the process of forming a LoL progaming team. Yellow is one of the candidates as player while FruitDealer will be the Head Coach of the team. ... ok, not really, but that would get me to watch LoL I never saw him play but it still makes me sad to see a legend retire. Good luck to Reach with whatever he plans to do next. | ||

Though you are an SKT fan and thus scientifically a horrible person, I agree... it definitely colors these finals in a way that it shouldn't be. It should be an unbiased match where the better team (*cough KT cough*) wins, but because of these retirements, I would absolutely DETEST SKT if they won. fake-SKT-hate aside, I hope these finals are epic, as is required when seeing off one of the greatest Protoss heroes of all time. | ||

Epicness starts are 17:00 Epicness starts at 17:40 Even GOD cowered for a moment in presence of THE Hero. So many good games, but those two were after all the other legends had faded away, Reach showed us something that only a veteran legend of the old ages can do... Edit: corrected the epicness times. | ||

This post needs to be in the TL hall of fame. I consider Boxer, Yellow, and Reach to be the first holy trinity of starcraft. They paved the road for Flash, Jaedong, and Bisu. With Boxer in SC2 and Yellow in LoL, Reach's retirement will mark the end of an era. | ||

Regardless, past his prime or not, win or lose, it would be a terrible injustice to not have him play during the finals. | ||

And for KT... the mantoss. The crowd roars, not for Bisu, but for Reach, his final match appearance for BW. *46minutes of gruelling PvP action later* The mantoss has won, KT has the 3-peat, and Reach can retire, knowing that he is the reason that KT won tonight. Good bye sweet prince. We will never forget. Reach AKA The Mantoss. I would legitimately cry if this happened. Goodbye Reach. So sad to see the last of the old legends go....does this make Tossgirl the longest-running active progamer? | ||

KT better play Reach in the finals, and he doesn't just beat Bisu, he crushes him, dominates him. And all of the crowd cheers him on, please <3 Goodbye my hero. Its the end of an era. | ||

I hope he gets sent out in a game at least, for a last goodbye I really wouldn't mind him playing SC2 or still be involved with eSports in general, I mean it was kind of sad seeing YellOw out of Starcraft but hey, at least he's still a part of eSports. | ||

I really hope KT lets him play one last game in the Finals. That's what he deserves: not some meaningless game after KT secured a play-off spot (that's for rookies), but an actual proper game when it matters. It wouldn't even a bad choice - they could just send him out on the anti-Flash map SKT will pick for the first game. | ||

My second hope is that you could learn about your foreign fans, you could fully understand the extent to which you are (ok, adored, but) APPRECIATED, SO PROFOUNDLY. Or just (mebe with some translation help) be able to read through this thread. Live on, champion, legend - MANTOSS, HWAITING! | ||
