SC2 is slowly but surely killing the korean E-sports scene, as far as the former BW pros goes. Such great players just keep on retiring and ofcourse thats not surprising at all. Their dreams and pasion were in Broodwar not in some other games. I hope Jaehoon can participate in the amateur scene and find something enjoyable to work from now on. Jaehoon Hwaiting! | ||

The way I see it, SC2 is slowly but surely invigorating the korean amateur BW-scene. It's all a matter of perspective On-topic: These news make me both sad and happy at the same time; sad because progaming in SC2 didn't work out for Jaehoon, happy because I might be able to see him play BW again (which, admittedly, is pretty selfish of me)... Even if he doesn't return to BW, I do wanna wish him the best of luck with whatever he decides to do. | ||

If you aren't passionate about the game anymore that's a pretty time to get out. Two threads with regards to this now in the BW & SC2 section. D; I wonder if there's a way we can put news/threads in both sections without having to have separate threads for them. On August 18 2013 02:54 BisuDagger wrote: I'm ready for more to come.

KeSPA teams are rumored to be cutting a lot of the B-team and poaching from eSF teams in October (when the "Don't hite eSF players" rule expires), so I wouldn't be at all surprised to be a lot more retirements shortly, especially since BW didn't up and die the way a lot of people expected. Jaehoon's retirement is a little surprising, because his 11-13 record isn't that bad. Though, I suppose, most of his wins are against random guys, and he couldn't get into the OSL. I guess that means it's more likely he'll play BW. I think a lot of KeSPA protosses are more inclined than the other races to not like SC2, since they're playing the least mechanical race in a less mechanical game.

It's all a matter of perspective I think it's gotten to the point where all the damage SC2 can do to BW has been done, and BW isn't likely to hurt SC2 much among the foreign scene. (Even though it's now trendy for people who never watched or played BW to go on long rants bout how much better BW was. Xenocider went on a big rant about how BW Mech was way better than SC2 mech, but admitted he didn't watch any BW because "I was a fetus"). I think BW has a lot of rebounding left to do, and it's only a matter of time before someone from the SC2 scene starts doing English casts for SSL, and then the two scenes end up co-existing in this hazy weird way where SC2 people kind of bandwagon on BW and BW people flip between irritation and "Well, it's exposure". Let's try not to be too smug about it, though | ||

For every great BW pro that has retired I can name you a mediocre or just down right bad BW pro who has actually made a career worth having in SC2. Moreover, a lot of the BW guys were reaching the end of their eSports careers one way or another. It's not the fault of SC2 every time one of these veterans retires, many times it's just the fault of their age and deteriorating motivation for playing video games to make a living. No reason to continue this "SC2 is killing eSports" BS. | ||

But that was before Jin air came looking around the corner. As far as it goes for the retirement of alot of progamers that came from Broodwar. Yes the transition to StarCraft 2 made some people retire from it. BUT there has to be some realisation that Kespa wants to innovate and show progress through time. Yes it is sad to see the old broodwar players go BUT in my opinion it would be a bit lame to see all or most old bw players succeed as much as in starcraft 2 as they did in BroodWar. | ||

People have always retired, and huge changes (like a new game) will create a small increase in the rate of this happening, but it is silly and apocalyptic to say sc2 is "killing Korean esports". Stop. On topic: I hope he does well in his next endeavor, gaming or otherwise! | ||

A few years ago, when proleague was exclusively BW and retirements were going on one after another, in every retirement thread, SC2 fans were cheering up, hoping for the player to switch to SC2 and shit. Now it's all backwards. Proleague is all SC2 and when someone from proleague retires, BW fans cheer up, hoping for the player to play in Sonic leagues and shit. Only difference, I hated the former, been loving the latter though. | ||

At least he had a long and good career, playing with guys like Sea, Pusan, Bisu, Jaedong... And he got to experience starcraft at its peak. | ||

Such great players just keep on retiring and ofcourse thats not surprising at all. Their dreams and pasion were in Broodwar not in some other games. I hope Jaehoon can participate in the amateur scene and find something enjoyable to work from now on. Jaehoon Hwaiting! It's called age. Like real sports, esport favors really young talents because the older ones slowly get destroyed by health problems. Starcraft 2 is just an excuse. Kespa is filled with aging broodwar talents, but it's probably going to be very different in a few years. Still sad to see a player doing rather well (his proleague run was good, helping his team a lot) go. It's also important to note that a lot of those retiring players are protoss. It's the race with the largest changes in gameplay, by far (mainly because of warpgate and it's impact on balance). Harder time to adapt mean more old players giving up. | ||

Nah what you commented has nothing to do with what lucumo has mention and besides that with his retirement I am not sure if sc2 is doing so well this days after all he seems to be one of those guys who transition to sc2 more successfully.Hoping to see him in action during SRT or Sospa starleague. | ||

If not, best of luck to whatever he decides to do next. I'll never forget his platinum white hair lol. And I'll also remember when Longinus was a new map and Jaehoon dominated Zergbong (the man now known as Nestea) in the showcase match for that map. | ||

Of course there's the main page too, but personally, I usually get here by linking to the stream page rather than the main page. :Þ And on the topic? WHAT?!!!!!? He was doing extremely well and T8 were so much stronger with him! Dearie me! Well, great games, Jaehoon, and good luck in future. | ||

Remember guys Sea wasn't doing so hot right before the switch too. He was at the lowest of lows and now he's tearing up Sonic's League. Things are more lax now. If the fella decided to play BW again you never know. | ||

People have always retired, and huge changes (like a new game) will create a small increase in the rate of this happening, but it is silly and apocalyptic to say sc2 is "killing Korean esports". Stop. On topic: I hope he does well in his next endeavor, gaming or otherwise! Yes and except that you dont even understand what im talking about. You saw something bad about SC2 and rushed so hard to prove me wrong that you didnt bother read the rest of my post lol :D On August 18 2013 02:18 _Animus_ wrote: SC2 is slowly but surely killing the korean E-sports scene, as far as the former BW pros goes. Eh sc2 fanboys making it almost personal if someone dont like your game, but hey fact is that in Korea BW has the biggest impact on public and progamers. Jaehoon is started his career because of the first game of the series, also you cant compare SC2 matches with BW ones, just watch the crowd. Is this not a downwfall? P.S. and yes i prefer BW over SC2 and im angry not because im SC2 hater, but because these kids dedicated lifes to their dream and now they are forced to a different path. | ||
