Damn...I'll never forget the time when Artosis hyped you up in Broodwar and watching you play because of that, and realizing that you were a really, really good player. Good luck with the future!
Yeah i've got your zerg riiiight here! *gulps beer*

Some people are seriously disrespecting Sea here, really uncalled for considering that the man was one of the greatest proleague legends of all time. I hope he has a great future with whatever he pursues and continues to stream BW.

so sad, he is such a great guy!
I have no Broodwarbackround so i didn't know him before he switched to Liquid but i liked him straight from the beginning an this only growed with every time I watched him on stream or in a tournament.

Farewell, all the best of luck to you!

Sad to hear, but understandable. I mean, he's been around for ages by progaming standards. Best of luck!

Itbreaks my heart to see him go so soon. As a fellow terran player, I have been having a hard time seeing why I should continue to play this game, in my opinion the game doesn't seem very fair for terran players at all, until Sea came into play. He reinspired me to become a better sc2 player, this really does break my heart T.T

Sad to see Sea retire from pro gaming, though I'm not that surprised considering hes one of the pro gamers that's been at it for a long time(nearly 8 years). He's still young so I wish the best in the future.

That was fast
Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.

Sea is the only person I've watched stream that actually seemed to enjoy the game. He was always smiling. Sure it could be for show, but I even heard him comment on how much fun it was. I was in complete shock. Like how is he playing t vs z and enjoying that? There's obviously some correlation between winning and happiness, especially for a player with his standards. But, despite switching to SC 2 later than most, he was still GM in Korea. I can only think of Flash as having had more success than Sea at such a young age (even if just a beast in pro league). If anyone can succeed at SC 2, it's probably him. With Sea enjoying playing mech, it seems insane to retire with HotS right around the corner.

I don't know who to fault, but you can't think that it helps to play BW on the side. If you view BW as the better game and the more enjoyable one, and one which you were a top player, then that nostalgia can't help. I also don't think it helps if you don't put Sea in the proleague lineup. Whether it's a different game or not, Sea earned the right to play himself out of the lineup, by losing in proleague. EGTL was already fielding players that you knew were going to lose. I don't care what happened in practice, Sea earned that right and you have to know that not playing him = retirement. You can't afford to lose your most talented Korean player due to being more concerned with marketing or w/e.
