Tosky who has decided on retirement stated, “Not being able to deliver results for such a long time ultimately lead to a decrease in interest for the game”

this makes me

although it makes sense and i understand. hardcore players keep going and play for the love of the game.

Damn I never knew ToSky and Calm were brothers

Sorry to see him go. I remember right after he won against Canata 2-0 in GOM TV that he actually had the #2 highest ZvT ELO in the world (behind Jaedong) simply becuase he didnt play any other games, haha.

Too bad he didnt use his brotherly influence to bring Calm over to Hwaseung

It was #3.

Bah, this sucks. :/

Hope he comes back to coach later.

I'm pretty sure the ToSky-Calm relationship is making many people shit bricks.

I, for one, shat bricks when I read that line.

It's a pity that JD was too good to allow for any depth in the Oz lineup. ToSky probably got tired of getting manhandled in zvz practice.

it would be nice to see him in ACE, especially if he takes a break first and gets some interest back. doing badly and losing interest because of it is a horrible downward spiral to be in, props to him for doing what he has to do to get himself out of it.

It's pretty sad because I too was interested in Tosky's high ZvT ELO and wanted to see some of that old level but I saw it coming after Gom S2.

I wonder what ToSky's career would have been like if he hadn't been so overshadowed by Jaedong's rise and success.

I guess I could have seen it coming, sad though. I really liked watching him play, he was my favorite player t.t

Ummmmm no? I'm pretty sure there was even a question in an interview where they asked one of the "Shin trio" (hyvaa, UpMagiC, and SangHo) if any of them were related, and they answered no.
