Good luck Select! You were one of my favorite TvP players when I first started watching SC2

Well good luck to Select, my memory of him was on ladder when he 2raxed for 2-3 games in a row, but i did beat him once. I wish Select the best in the DotA scene and I wish him well in the future.

Jinro and Select were the guys that inspired me to play terran and now they're both gone T_T

Sad to see you go but good luck in Dota 2 I might have to watch it now

Going to be really sad missing Select in SC2, he was basically a staple of the foreign scene for a long time. but cool to see him go to DOTA 2, might get me to start playing more if he streams enough :D

I wonder if people who have fallen off DOTA clone games will retire and go to SC2 in the future.... Hmmm.

There's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep trying till you run out of cake.

After Jinro, another terran leaves the scene… He actually wrote many tweets where he explains how hard it is to be terran nowadays and how much efforts are needed compared to other races… I'm really sad because I was watching his stream very very often, now what are the main terran streams ? EG Thorzain & Demuslim… ?

Happy for you select, GL. At least it wasn't league of legends.

Sad day for the NA Terrans. You're truly a gifted individual and I hope you continue to pursue your talents in gaming. The level you play SC2 at is terrifying, which should make you the best at any other game

I will continue to keep the loves on you, without a doubt. GL HF

SeleCT has one of the largest impacts on the scene with an attitude and emoticon that will be forever immortalized.

They say that a man dies twice, once when he passes away and once when everyone forgets about him. With that thought, though you're no longer playing SC2, you'll be in the thoughts of your fans till the end.

It's okay, he is going to play DotA not mobas.

And it doesn't sound like he is quitting SC2 to play DotA but rather that he is going to play DotA due to quitting SC2, if that makes sense at all.

Please stream Select.

But dota is a moba, or did i miss the joke?

i feel like this has something to do with the fearmongering going on in the community. Personally, dota 2 is just not very spectator-friendly to be a true esports like sc2. You can't see much amidst all those flashy spells going off in the teamfights.

When starcraft gets too hard, you switch games to make easier money.

Makes sense to me, especially when you want to be the very best at something in your career at least once.


He was a WCG champion in Dawn of War was he not ^^

Ok this makes me feel a little bit better, the part where he used to play DOTA. So it is less of the rumor that SC is dying and more of the ones who can't go any further switch. Perfectly acceptable imho.
