(Z)Check
just posted on his facebook that he's retiring from progaming.

Check was a professional warcraft 3 player and had an outstanding career before switching to starcraft 2.

In starcraft 2 Check was a high calibur zerg formerly from Prime and participated in GSL Code S and Code A. After falling out of Code A he eventually moved to eSahara.

It will be sad to see Check go. He signed the back of my prime hoodie.

Thanks for everything check! <3

-edit-
As I forgot to point out and others brought up, I believe it's time for Check to do his mandatory military service in Korea. I remember Wolf talking about that in the up and downs for GSL S1 Up and Downs

Sad to see him go.

He was my go to player when I wanted to download replays and learn crazy new strats way back during the beta/early release. In base hatchery shenanigans that always seemed to work...

Going to miss him

Wow, very surprising after he recently joined eSahara - we hadn't yet seen him in foreign events even.

Very sad. His WC3 career was really extraordinary. I hope people don't remember him from his SC2 performance, which pales in comparison.

Not really surprising to me, since he's not really good at SC2 compared to other Zergs out there

Didn't follow his WC3 career, but I will miss those early GSL days and all those Roaches you made vs Terran.

Thanks for all the great games you showed us check, you really set trends in early zerg play.

Good luck with other things.
