I wonder how that will decrease the popularity of the scene in SK. those two bad boys can do whatever the hell they want and their harem will follow :3 | ||

Makes his ODT games even sadder, given that he probably wasn't practicing SC2 much... Everyone I cheer for is retiring. | ||

I never look at retirements too negatively now, since I have a hunch that this new slew of retirements won't just be a bunch of turncoats going to SC2 (Boxer, July, Nada, ForGG). They're probably quitting "esports" altogether. They'll go to school, serve 2 years, find a woman, have an non-televised career, and so on. I'm glad that they're making the right decision for themselves. It's hard when you see players like JD that openly blurb (Ex: twitter) that they are unsatisfied stay in the game with little optimism. | ||

Still, it makes me sad... Makes sense, the younger ones can still make a run at college or something before their service. The older ones don't have any other options really. | ||

They are decent players but not good enough to be called A-Class but not bad enough to be put into B-teamer. The transition is most exacreble for them. They just got their groove on for BW but right when they really start to enjoy the spotlight, the game is being shifted. Makes one depressing storyline. | ||
