Killer has always struck me a tragic figure, I've wanted him to do well to no avail

Not only that, but the cycle in progaming is MUCH shorter than in "real" sports, typically.
Think of the players who have hit the peak and then dropped off pretty rapidly, or won once and then disappeared.
Plus players can't always commit to progaming forever. You might get a year or two, but then realise/decide you can't make enough to justify putting off "real" life for even longer, and you need to leave.

Players as well are probably very reluctant to sign for long term because they won't know what their own future holds, and there are fewer guarantees in gaming, especially as it's also such a solo effort for the most part (in SC2 that is).
HOLY CHECK!

Oh, he seemed like such a scary player despite not being as well known as most of the Code S-ers. Hopefully he gets picked up by a good team and gets more recognition!

Given the results of some of the other CoL roster I think it's much more likely that Killer decided to leave(retire?) rather than was pushed. I mean he's was one of 2 remaining GSL players on the team.

It would be pretty sweet to see him coach a KESPA team. But we shall see what the future holds for Killer.

(P)coL.Killer: Killer went 0-5. The only other player in history who went 0-5 in the Up/Down groups was BumblebeePrime. After going 0-5, he apparently left Prime, vanished from the universe, and is now in some different dimension trying to end the shame of going 0-5 in his Up/Down group. Let's hope the same doesn't happen to Killer.


Uh oh.


Oh shit, I forgot about this. Hope history doesn't repeat itself :O

Didn't seem like a good fit. He didn't really have many good practice partners on his team, wasn't winning anything, and might have traveled too much. It would make far more sense for him to join a Korean team imo. Better practice environment, and while he probably won't travel as much he'll get better as a player.

Seems like a lot of Korean players who chase foreign money wind up stagnating as they get behind the general metagame, and don't win anything of note at tournaments.

I doubt Complexity will exist at the end of the year
