He lost to a nice cheese, because he wasnt paying attention. shit happens.
He was also the last foreigner standing in the last MLG.

I'm sure that was in a dream, or in a club house exclusively made for Plastic League players. Ret joined WoL relatively late and has been since then, over all, quite mediocre and actually quite bad near the end of WoL. He has had some really good moments, and seemed really on the way up as HotS was released. No one has ever said that Ret was a top Zerg, maybe in Eu at one point briefly. The only time this statement would be true is Ret's status as top foreign Zerg in BW. Otherwise it's super weird that you have been hearing that a fair amount...

Ret's performance goes up and down a lot, sort of similar to ThorZain in this group.

Ret bounces around lately in his playstrength, but alot of people do that currently.

also to clarify the reason I played roach hyd corrupter in g1 is because he scouted my spire, but didn't react to it t.t

Agreed, both are better in a single tournament format then a long gsl-like competition and thats fine.

People usually called Ret "the most talented foreigner" or "one of the most talented RTS player ever" whatever that is supposed to mean.

Ret won the European Battle.net Invitational in 2011 and at that time he did look like the best in Europe. Today he doesn't get in the ""Code S""-clone of Europe. So yeah, things have changed, I guess.

Yeps, I was thinking that was the reason. But Ret didn't knew that Titan never scouted his spire. So basically lack of scouting was actually a good thing there hehe

There was a time post Dimaga and before Nerchio/Stephano/Scarlet.

Yes. Ret, Dimaga and Idra was often mentioned as top-3 in the beginning of sc2 (Sen is always ignored).
