This sucks... I remember when he beat Flash last year. That was awesome. A really clever zerg. I guess he didn't feel like competing with Hydra.

that military thing must suck so much for koreans. I can't imagine losing two years like that.

Beat Flash? What are you talking about? O_o


He probably mixed up hogil with hyun

Eliminate JD from OSL and leave? LOL, I should set a new topis on TL, called "Season of the trolls". Hogil would be a no1 troll with this one. Anyway, wish you best luck in your future life.

I will miss his ZvZ. Although he wasn't successful, he will be remembered by me as the Drone killer.

While I'm not advocating the idea of retiring select Brood War players in general, I'm kind of sick of seeing players from the Entus crew drop out of the scene as they tend to produce some of the greatest players ever (even though HoGiL was initially a Sparkyz player, I still consider him to be a part of Entus with the merger); it's just a shame as being a member of any Entus-related faction really helps players reach their potential and become amazing players (compared to how rookies tend to stagnate in T1/KT).

Good luck to him for the future, wherever he chooses to go.

What? It's our homegrown players who are doing well: Flash, Stats, Violet and our imports that have stagnated: Luxury, ForGG, Action.

Not only did he go out beating Jaedong, but he participated in one of the most unexpected match results ever, the ZvZ tie!

Sad to see any player leave, best of luck to him.

Wow, how many of ties has been there in the history of starcraft ? TV progaming shows that is ?

Entus.

Effort beats Flash into retire.

Hogil beats Jaedong into retire Xd.

But seriously sad news when BWpro retires. though im happy with 1 less hydraabuster.

Next in line would be hydra then?

For some reason, beating great and then retiring just doesn't have the same glamour to it.

This is a Hite Entus merger problem rather than a BW scene problem.

I just remember seeing his game vs Mind on Katrina and thought his zvt had promise. I always thought he showed at times really remarkable minimap usage where he would catch dropships anytime they passed an overlord. Don't know about his other mu's because I only watched his zvt but still sad to see him go .

Shame, but I guess the poor guy was pretty much left jobless with the rise of Hydra. Pretty understandable he would call it quits right now.
