Merz,

Thanks for showing us so many great games, and for letting us know about your plans. Millions play this game, but you are still among a handful of professionals to have graced the battlefield.

I'm sure your success will translate well toward whatever you choose to do. Best wishes!
Beauty is not the goal of competitive sports, but high-level sports are a prime venue for the expression of human beauty. The relation is roughly that of courage to war.

It was a pleasure for me to know merz, he is among the most good hearted and kind people I've met and he always had a great potential as a player in both SCBW and SC2 that he never seemed to unlock due to external circumstances. We had a lot of fun together and I will miss him a lot.
Best of luck in the future, please don't change your attitude towards people and your goals, I'm sure you will be great at anything you decide to do.

Sad to see him go, But it's only natural for players to start quitting around this time, The game has lost it's "New and awesome" factor and only the dedicated players that really love the game is going to dedicate their time enough to be able to improve as players and keep up with the others.

GL to you Merz!

merz, you rock on. It doesn't matter that you weren't the most e-famous player, you enjoyed the game and could compete with pros. I hope you enjoyed the time thoroughly and all the best in your future endeavors!

Maybe because at the time, and now we have foreigners that can compete with the best. Nerchio, Naniwa, Stephano, etc. can all compete with the top koreans and win consistently. So no, just like it was then, it is the same now, there may be a dearth of them, but they are there. Furthermore, MerZ, though a nice guy and a great player during his breakout, stopped showing results for a while. This is not because of some crazy Koreans greater than foreigners problem, it is because MerZ realizes that he can't necessarily put up the numbers he used to and he might not be able to get the results, and his own practice demeanor might have been falling because of that, and maybe, just maybe he wants to retire from all the stress and pursue another part of his life. I think it would be way to narrow to think it is because of some Korean>Foreigners issue. MerZ was and has been a great part of the community, you need not mar that.
User was warned for too many mimes.

All I know of Merz was his ridiculously APM, I was quite entertained by it.

Enjoy life, Merz!

GL!

On another note: I really hope foreigners suck it up and practice like the koreans. Less and less is up to chance in games as the game gets figured out and only gets harder. Work ethic people!
