Legalmind retired from Starcraft 2 not too long ago, another player I'll really miss.

Isn't he on a semi-pro team now?

No, he played for Team Clash (my team) for a while, but he made the decision to retire about a month ago.

Too bad he slowly disappeared from the big screen after that.

gl in the future, man.


Yeah, first time I saw him was when he absolutely smashed CellaWerra two games in a row on Cella's stream. First time Cella was using "holy check!"

I'm gonna miss Check. He was pretty good throughout the open seasons and his jawline was bloody intimidating.

Goodbye Check

Guess he thought there would be more money coming from his stay with eSahara before he finally dropped out. Sad to see him go as an icon of the earlier days but as far as the current state of things, he will hardly be missed in the scene overall.

FD is now a LoL-coach if you missed that I guess we'll be seeing a lot of these in the upcoming months as the rookies are getting better and the old ones can't keep the skill/motivation up to par.

Mainly due to pending military service, but I'm sure the lack of success is a factor

Sad to see Check go. Best of luck in the future!
