i think everyone here needs to understand, this is the month contracts expire, so its bound the most people will retire this month, its not a bad thing with all the teams and im sure they will bring in new talent, by next month there wont be almost any retirements, just has to do with contracts being up.

Midas has been retired for a while now.

Light is the best TvZ player to never win a SL, certainly. But his TvP was always considered sub par, and his TvT was only good; rarely great.

Best Terrans to never win a SL, I'd say:

1. Sea
2. Midas
3. Light
4. Iris

Light's really only known for his TvZ, but my god that TvZ...

Unspoiler for awesomeness:

The only blip was a 9 game (!!) TvZ span where he only played JD and still went an impressive 4-5 against the Tyrant.

This only seems natural as contracts expiring and still too many players in korea.

T_T NOOOoo. I'm hoping the Stars can bounce back from this, especially ZerO! Losing Flying and Light is really big.

They've had some great games in the past, sucks that they're gonna leave

ZerO is rumored to be leaving as well because of his depression from losing that OSL vs JangBi. I hear that he was crying to sleep for days afterward.

T_T When will the bad news end? I hope this doesn't mean Woongjin is disbanding, the sc2 scene has been shrinking way too fast...

It's not necessarily bad news. SC2 has too many pro gamers right now so it's a good thing that it's downsizing for the moment. We can only hope that the field gets bigger in a smarter way to allow for an up scaling of players later on.

Korea is getting closer to being at an optimal level, they just need to focus more on the professional scene whereas it seems they are going away from professionalism a little bit to make way for a more leinient and, imo, less efficient style of management.

Korea is going to be in a weird stage for a while though. Gonna take over a year before they are comfortable with their set up I presume.

In any case though, SC2 is going to remain healthy for quite some time, so no need to worry ^_^

It is sad to see the individuals who leave though. Especially Flying whom I wanted to succeed at SC2. Wish them the best!

I hope Light plays in Sospa. His TvZ was so inspiring. Flash and Light were the main reasons why I settled with terran. When seeing Light play TvZ you never knew what to expect but it always ended up the same, with him making the zerg look like a noob. His TvT was also top class at times, but he seemed to struggle more than average with TvP, most likely because you can't boss your opponent around in TvP.

Dude for my post a little higher up where I added a vid for the JD game I went through his TvZ TLPD and was blown away by his TvZ win rate... He was on literally on fire.

Respect.

Still, JD > Light.
