Its informally stated, by himself even, that he was going to play poker and D3 in his fanclub

Still sad, although old news. I hope he plays some in the expansions.

I thought this was more known, but never heard it from a credible source. A couple months back I remember of bunch of people mentioning it in various stream chats, so I kind of took it for granted, regardless it's nice to see a confirmation. Really sad new still, wish him the best of luck, gave us some great fucking games!

He had a tiny fanbase even look at his thread on TL here which is barely 30 pages long while others have far more then that. If he had a large fanbase maybe he would have bothered to post but he doesn't so he didn't bother to announce his retirement. He's moving on to the next Esports game which will be Diablo 3 which might be more popular then SC2 just because it will feature an Arena style combat and that alone will attract far more players. I'm even thinking of starting up in it once D3 PVP is released. I would bother with SC2 if I wasn't competing with people that dump 70-80 hours a week into SC2 which I don't have anywhere near that kind of time to put into it per week.

I remember this being rumored a few weeks ago, but still sad to see it even more legitimized. He was really fun to watch. His mothership game vs stephano is one of the best SC2 games I have ever seen to date.

eh he's really good, but I guess the motivation isn't there when you just don't win enough. it was cool seeing him at ipl4 even though he only made it half way into the open bracket.

Maybe he's not fully retired yet.

(I'm assuming you're being sarcastic).

He's been retired for a while now, he only went to IPL4 because it was in Las Vegas.

Such as shame, one of my favorite toss :/ Kind of strange also how low profile his retirement was :/ suppose due to reign disbanding at the same time and him going to IPL4 while retired

Aww so sad. The guy was a genius in my opinion, he's good at everything lol. He can definitely make a lot more money in poker so it seems like the most logical choice.
