seriously, how is his switch remotely related to SC2 going downhill? He has a poor condition, switch on an easier game (at least less physically demanding, and that's it. Chances are he would never have been able to be competitive again on SC2!

I can't say I'm surprised. Still, this is sad news but I hope he does well in LoL.

Why do progamers have to stick to one game when it comes to Starcraft etc? Fans are so quick to grumble about it.

Actually, that reminds me of the fighting scene. Justin Wong plays in way too many games.

Honestly seems like a waste of talent for guys like CoCa and sC to switch to LoL

Too bad, he was one of the promising Terrans before he had his lung condition. He hasn't been the same ever since. Now as for the people using this to say "OMG SC2 IS DYING ARMAGEDDON IS HERE!!", I would yell the same if the likes of MVP, DRG, MC, and KeSPA big timers switched to LoL.

I really enjoyed his play in SC2 (especially those classic series vs NesTea and San) so it's quite sad to see him go, but I wish him great success and no more health problems. sC fighting ~

Expect more to switch, LoL is just too huge in Korea compared to SC2 atm.

Good luck to him, i hope he finds more success in lol than he did in sc2.

With all the Kespa pros joining sc2 it must be scary for some of these non salaried players to stay motivated in sc2.

You mean there has been a recent increase in sc2 pros in korea, making the scene even more competitive. Changing to lol is only natural for people who cannot come along in sc2, seeing lol is a growing scene.
It's not about size, it's about opportunity.

Well good luck. Its obvious some pros will switch. maybe its even a good thing, to have less players means the ones who are left get a bigger share of the pie.

The Slayers folk, Puzzle, Coca, I can understand. Their team was sinking fast and they needed something to live off of. sC's from MVP though... that's the most worrying part, a successful member of one of the (lauded as) stable teams in Korea is going over.

So many SC2 progamers are going to LoL

What the hell :o I thought atleast one or two of them might go dota 2 or just retire from gaming alltogether
