I have to say, there have been some interesting excuses by players recently for getting out of contracts. Like Crank leaving Slayers due to injury, but then continuing to play lots of Starcraft while publicly shopping himself to foreign teams (unless I am misunderstanding the situation). To me, it's disgusting that players feel like they have to make an excuse to leave a team in the first place. The fact that people seem to want to paint anyone that leaves a team looking for something better or more money as a villain is a bit depressing to players. (Not specifically talking about this situation).

): Worst article I ever had to write.

Like JEcho said, he will not be retiring and he did indeed leave on good terms (no drama here). Best of luck jo

sad to read, always thought he could have done a breakthrough to be one of the best NA players. But School goes first, its the right choice!

He's a good zerg player but he bad manners like crazy... every game is either gloating or raging. So I actually think that it will be good in some way for iS's image (although will lower their publicity)

Best of luck to him. why do you say that? also gl jo-lo
He's been saying quite a few times, that he basically doesn't earn anything serious with streaming, despite his stream being one of the best, as he always explains and talks about the game, his decisions etc. unlike others who have not yet discovered the technology called microphone. But if you don't make any real money, it doesn'T make any sense to skip school /university or whatever else that's on the table for him and even team salaries are a joke for non-superstars.
So the right choice to fuck it and shift your focus on things that will allow you to buy food and shelter in the future :-D

Best of luck to jEcho in the future!
Can't wait to see where he goes next.

I'm a huge fan of jecho and his stream (awesome stuff). But I have seen him bm (i guess it depends on what you view as BM), I'm not sure how you could miss it if you watch his stream regularly. Some of it could have been justified by the other players interaction with him but it did go on. With that being said who cares? I like a player with some personality even if some people think its rude.

I apologize, but I have never seen him be mannered in any match (and game) I have ever played versus him. We can agree to disagree

Hopefully he'll be back soon. Gotta love the decision though. Can't wait to see who joins the team.

Ehh, I have heard quite a few people say this myself, and even heard JEcho admit it on reddit iirc.

You did just read that he's not planning to join a new team, right?

Where did he say that. It's not explicitly stated.

It doesn't say that.
He is joining another team but waiting for them to announce it.

Seriously always thought of jecho as iS's best zerg. His manner is awesome. Who cares about what some people say ladder talk really doesnt mean much because you have no idea how many trolls there. iS lost a great player honestly suprised by this. Goodluck JEcho!!

I wish the best of luck to him. Sad to see him go.
