If everyone was like sheth we would never get a Boxer -- who's faced depression, destroyed his shoulder, and faced existential crises fighting to stay relevant while he's entering middle ages knowing nothing but starcraft.

Then quit SC2 and be a house child? Staying in Korea doesn't mean you never see your family ever again. It doesn't even mean you stay there forever, heck even staying there until you're eliminated from Code A would be doing more than peacing on his team.


maybe i'm misunderstandin, but he DID get eliminated from Code A oO

He quit school when SC2 came out. Decided to stay in America. Probably if the whole SC2 pro-gamer thing doesn't pan out he can still go back to school. I think he said that in his IPL1 interview.

Amazing opportunity and I feel as a pro gamer it is a horrible choice to pass up this opportunity, I feel you know the commitments you are making going into pro gaming as a career choice and as such should honor your commitments.

Takes sacrifice to succeed and I feel going for whats more comfortable in your life is never going to get you anywhere.

Ultimately his choice though, however terrible of a choice is it.

Good luck.

This is a really disappointing turn of events for the foreign sc2 scene. There is so much evidence that shows putting in the dedication and hard-work produces results (just look at Huk and Jinro). Before I get flamed for attacking Sheth as a person, I want to ask everyone who is playing the "Sheth is doing what's best for him" card, what does he have to say to his teammates who are now left without their captain? What kind of example is he setting for his team when he can't stick it for a couple extra weeks? (I cringe when I say stick it out because training in Korea and participating in the GSL would be the ultimate dream for a majority of the people who play this game competitively) From my experience playing on a college baseball team I know that I wouldn't be able to respect a teammate, much less the captain, if he threw in the towel half way through the season because things got a little "uncomfortable" (again cringing because living rent free in a pro-gaming training house in Korea could be considered a dream) Now I don't pretend to know any of the members of FXO or Sheth, just saying if it was me in the FXO guys shoes, Sheth wouldn't have much of my respect. You don't quit on your team because the allotted living conditions don't suit your personal preferences. Seems pretty weak imo, especially if he was GIVEN a spot into Code A when people like QXC and DRG are still unable to get in. Anyway GL to FXO and Sheth, who knows maybe he will show better results training the way he seems fit.

From a personal standpoint I can understand where Sheth is coming from. However, Sheth is the captain of the FXO team during the GSTL. To abandon his team is very unprofessional. How can the captain abandon his own team when they need him? A captain doesn't abandon his ship.

People were disappointed but no, they didn't get as much shit, because they stayed a hell of a lot longer than 2 weeks to try and make it work, and that was after failing to even qualify for the GSL. They also didn't abandon their team in the middle of a team league.

They stayed more than two weeks so no. And yeah they didn't abandon their team when they were needed.

no

But keep in mind all the TL guys spent at least 3-4 months in Korea. I know TLO was the least amount of time at like 2 and a half months maybe. Not %100 sure.

Ret spent 5 months I think and Haypro spent 6-7 months there. So its a lot more time than 2 weeks.

I think thats why everyone is more angry. Cause sheth was top 16 Code A. Was going to be in code A in August. Only spent 2 weeks there and basically said "i'm out,".

no because those 3 at least gave it a decent shot. while 2 weeks is not giving it a shot, anyway you put it.

besides TLO had good reasons. not "i miss home" type thing u know.

We don't know all the circumstances involved in his decision so who are we to judge? There are probably some reasons for this that he doesn't want to share which is understandable. All I know is that Sheth seems like a great guy and it was fun to see him in Korea for a while atleast. Hopefully we'll see him stream more now that he's back, unless he wants to focus purely on traning which I respect aswell.

I'll keep cheering for you Sheth, we need all the good guys we can get in the SC2 community in order to bring balance to the force

Haypro, TLO and Ret weren't GIVEN a spot into Code A. Haypro, TLO and Ret were not living in a ENGLISH speaking pro-gaming house with ALL of their teammates there. Haypro, TLO and Ret were not the CAPTAINS of their team. Haypro, TLO and Ret did not abandon their team in the middle of a team league. Haypro, TLO and Ret stuck it out in a KOREAN SPEAKING pro-gaming house for MUCH longer than 2 weeks. Haypro, TLO and Ret EARNED the respect of the foreign scene for giving it their all when presented with a great opportunity. Sheth threw away an opportunity people would kill for just because he was a little home sick...

I think you, and many others in this thread, need to have a little bit more RESPECT for just how difficult it can be to live in a different country, where you don't speak the language, where you don't have a lot of luxuries you grew up with, etc.
Please have some respect for Sheth's decision, it's his to make, not yours.
