this hurts me so badly. I don't blame him, and certainly don't blame his new team. He was literally one of the few players years ago I rooted for. This is so hard for me. I think I'll write my points more eloquently later on which is rare for me.

SEA I LOVE U. ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL.

Why isnt he streaming on Liquid as well?

He wanted to stream on afreeca because he could goof off a bit, assuming the translator I read that from isn't trolling.

<QuickStriker> Sea wasn't comfortable streaming in twitch but was required as a TL player (twitch sponsor with TL)
<QuickStriker> and Sea prefer streaming in afreeca and having fun with viewers who are Koreans, who he can communicate and etc
<QuickStriker> but on twitch, he feels it's just game game game, like an actual job with no fun
<QuickStriker> and since TL didn't let him do his way
<QuickStriker> also important to note that he wasn't making a lot in TL
<QuickStriker> 2k-3k a month just streaming endlessly for TL
<QuickStriker> but he said he had no fun
<QuickStriker> b/c all he do was game game game, can't communicate with viewers b/c he dont know English
<QuickStriker> and he wanted to stream on afreeca



So it came down to unprofessionalism? Having fun is nice but this was a job and like all contracts certain things were expected of him. Did he think things would be any different from his bw days? TL is a business and Sea either forgot that, didn't understand, or just didn't care. At least he did the respectful thing and bowed out.

kind of expecte this...
I think he has lost his passion before sc2, his bw performance had been nothing special either towards the end

Credit to Sea for his past achievements. He was really was a BW great. However, I'm afraid his retirement is another good example of us overrating the elephants effect on the SC2 scene. We cannot buy back all the greatness that has been lost. SC2 has killed off Broodwar it seems increasingly clear that it is silly to expect all famous players of one game to rise to the very top of another, substantially different game. The signings of Sea and Jaedong have been trophy signings for the western scene--sort of like Liquid and EG hanging the heads of a big game animals on the wall of their hunting lodges, and I'm not sure that's the kind of tableau benefits either the elephants or the teams. As sad as it is to see Sea off already (and I liked watching his stream--I'm as much an APM-fan as anyone) but there is a kind of predictability to this mess. Nostalgia doesn't steer competitive teams to good places.
Only want to see you /dancing in the PurpleRain.

i didnt like him anyway. I mean his play was ok, but never good enough to win major titles. His appearance in "Hyongoon becomes a progamer" television serious made him quite unappealing to me and i had a great disympathy since then. What a weired child...

However I feel sorry for team liquid. I appreciate nazuguls comment that sea exceeded the expectations. So professional


Yeah, he only carried MBC to win proleague title. Not like that counts as a major title anyway. There are overrated players on Liquid, but Sea is not one of them.
why do you not believe it? the legend has alived!

Think he should have waited another year to see if being with TL would improve his skills. But gl to him and his future.

I`m sorry but after reading the lines that quickseeker translated I feel I bit betrayed aswell. First of all, making salaries/streaming revenues public is not especially professional and 2500 dollars is a pretty ok income for a player that yet had to prove his worth in SC2. Second, when he joined TL he always spoke about his desire to learn English, travel, interact with the foreign community ... and now it all sounds as if everything just has been a matter of contract obligations. I certainly wish him all the best for his future, but making him an honorary member in TL is rather unjustified.
I hope that in the future TL will go back to its roots and try to develop foreign talent.

He retired because he is not enjoying SC2 and that is all.
