sC has pretty serious health problems, switching to a casual game isnt really surprising.

Why so many players are switching to LoL? He is the one who popularized the 2 barracks style against zerg, I will always remember his debuts in GSL!

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

I don't follow the MOBA scenes, but I believe Korea=LOL and China=Dota.
As has been stated mutliple times, this shouldn't surprise anyone, considering he's been playing LOL ever since his lung collapse (in his interviews he always apologized for playing too much LOL, hence his bad performances in SC2).

There will be more switches of pros, due to the influx of the BW scene, it is natural and is not a sign of SC2's death or other nonsense, it's just that there are too many SC2 pros in Korea right now, so B-teamers and less successful teams will retire or switch.

because players who have fallen off are switching to LoL?


Remember when only bad Broodwar players dropped off and started playing SC2?

And then they all started playing SC2?

There's a right to be worried.

And probably more to come. As many people said the Korean market became overpopulated, there is no money to give for many of them.

But we got all the Kespa players now as well.
Unless players will leave with masses i don't think we need to worried just yet.

Puzzle and Coca aren't really players who have 'fallen off'.

Ohh sad..... He was my second favourite terran after taeja. This is terrible news, especially as he was one of the more mechanically talented players when he wasn't injured. Maybe he wanted to play a lighter game to balance with his injury?
Best of luck i suppose to him.....but i always imagined him winning code S eventually, so its not quite the same..
