Goodbye NaDa... I really hope you come back in some capacity, on ACE, as a commentator, something, please don't stay away from the scene <3

Can't say I'm surprised but it doesn't make it any less sad. I wish he could have won a major SC2 tournament before his retirement, preferably within the first year so he didn't have to keep struggling with his goal becoming constantly harder to attain.

Nooooooooooooooooo...

I'm rooting so hard for Flash not to win the last OSL, so that you can remain the best player of Starcraft of all time...

As someone who was never a big fan of the guy, simply cuz i didn't follow BW, i have to say its kinda of a shame he has to "go" this way.
If he knew about the military service/health problems that he had than why not simply retire while you are still in half of the GSL semifinals and ro8 and taking the podium at MLGs ?

I fell like if he would have just gone in a blaze of glory when he was still making appearances and winning stuff he could have come back 2 years ago when he was "stable" from a health standpoint and done with military, ether as a coach or just player.
He can do that now as well, i guess, but the hype won't be there since many people like me... no the old school fans, will remember him as that spent his last year of his carer doing nothing instead of that 1 guy that we war always told "was good" and had top notch finisher but never quite reached 1st place.

That is simply how i fell about it and its sad to see him go :/
Also, financial problem what ? Can you possibly have that kind of stuff after the carer he had ... appearance fees and what not ?
A good strategy means leaving your opponent room to make mistakes

NaDa will be sorely missed. He's a legend to whom every single one of us is in debt; without the trailblazers like NaDa in the early days of esports, we wouldn't have the community we have now, the player base we have now, the sport that we have now. None of this would be possible without the early people who played when cash was as limited as global support was, players who in the early going said "esports is going to be big, and I'm going to make sure of it." The people with the dedication and steadfastness to take on something almost completely new...an unknown and unsure frontier.

Whether you know NaDa or not, to whatever extent you appreciate any of what the world of Starcraft is or esports in general, you owe him your appreciation along with all of those that were around in the formative years (of which we are still very much apart, I feel).

With all of that said, one of the great things about this sport is that this isn't really like football or basketball...you don't have to be a young guy to be great. For that reason, I hold out hope that in the years to come everything works out and we may yet see NaDa come back to the game he and his peers made possible.

Thank you, NaDa.

Nada havin financial difficulties? I thought having won so much in BW and getting probably a decent salary at complexity would have given him some kind of savings

Man, I never thought NaDa would actually retire so soon. When he signed with complexity I was excited that he was going to be staying for a while longer.

Hopefully after his service he comes back ( I've never got to meet him before TT.

One of the most legendary players ever in the scene fades away. Actually I still hope that he comes back when the service is over and resurrect.

When I read this post I got chills of sadness... I will confess that I was never the biggest NaDa fan, since I only discovered the Starcraft professional scene after having bought Starcraft 2, but to me he was always one of those pillars of the scene, like Flash or Boxer. It amazes me when I see this community band together and pour all this support, encouragement, and respect, and I will not be left out. Best of luck in future endeavors NaDa, I will cheer you on no matter what, and you will remain in our hearts as long as there are people playing Starcraft out there somewhere.
