Jangbi is going to bring with him a tone of fans (girls particularly) and will probably give courage to more players to do the same. Im hoping this is the start of something real big. Jangbi Hwaiting!

What the fuck are you talking about? Heaps of bw fans are sad. For one, no more games in sc2 - you don't need to hate sc2 to like bw. And two, he's going to the military - not bw. That's 2 years out. Who knows if he'll even play either game when he's out.

Why would any BW fan be sad about potentially seeing him play BW for a year? It's not like he was forced or made to quit SC2, he made the decision for himself. So as a JangBi fan I want him to do what makes him happy; and as a BW fan, I would be really happy about seeing him play BW for a year.

Any time one of your favourite players retire it's sad. I'm a fan of Jangbi more than I am of him playing amatuer broodwar for a year. I'd still like to see him play sc2. This doesn't not make me a bw fan, it just makes me want to see my favourite player not retire.

Why is that sad? He said it himself that he lost interest in SC2. So you would rather have him do something that he's not enjoying than something that makes him happy; what kind of fan are you? It sounds like you're not a fan of JangBi, but a fan of JangBi playing SC2.

Jangbi was always one of my favorite BW players, and I want to wish him all the best for what ever it is he plans to do after his military service!

Hopefully we get to see some Jangbi storms in SSL!

It's truly unfortunate (both for the scene and him), that the BW scene had to die right when he was about to peak.

This is such sad news. I will change my bnet id to JangBi and finally use my name change that's been available for 2 years in honor of him.

Best of luck to him.

When I hear ex bw pro retiring from sc2 it gives me joy.

Hm, I always think he profited from the game(BW) not being played 100% anymore. Still, he definitely emerged from his slump in a really awesome way, Jangbi, paeh-wang no more.

it's debatable imo. Obviously not as much as KeSPA B-teamers who switched when it released but it's possible that he relished the thought of another starcraft game to dominate. Alas, it was not to his liking if we take his statement at face value and ignore his previous statements.

this. If you're a fan of a player then you should be happy if they stop playing a game they don't like because otherwise they are forced into playing it. If you're sad about that, well, dunno what kind of fan you are then lol.

Definitely, but it's scary to retire if you have nothing to fall back on. So many players just kept on going.
