Although for FlaSh it's another matter, I think that he set for himself the "2 years to be among the best in SC2" deadline (or 3 years, I don't remember) and now he's seeing that SC2 isn't meeting his expectations in terms of results, thus retirement. Zest and Stats are decently successful this year so it'd be weird for them to come back to BW, at least not until they spend 1 or so year(s) trying to find success in LotV. No idea about First though.
I was just imagining a horror scenario, because as it stands now, KT can't accurately replace Flash, Zest and Stats in Proleague. Life has never been a beast for the team leagues and I doubt he will become one, TY has extreme consistency issues, etc. And most of the young rising stars are already on teams that are on KT's level.

It's true that KT have been kinda subpar with their young guns recruitment. I mean OK Life is like super young, but apart from him... I guess SpeeD must be young too?

You'd assume he's young but nobody knows much about KT SpeeD *shrug*. There's no pictures of him even though Aligulac tells me he played quite a few offline games in his career since 2012 even.

KT might win if they don't send out Stats. If it comes to it, KT should send out Baby, Flash and Life next.

You see perfection, I see Choya fucking up and not playing Gumiho first so he could get the perfect 10-0. Imperfection denied by his own coach. How cruel fate is.
