What you are calling scarlett and stephano patch zergs? The 2 zergs who did well even before that patch? (especially stephano?). LOL.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Just look at his name. He doesn't really care about race objectivity.

Been there for 2 and a half years. It sucks big time. Hopefully she will start doind wrist curls or something once the pain goes away. It would be a pity if she took ages to realize that's the only way to fix it for good. Or at least in my case, that's how it work since I didn't have a surgery. GL Scarlett!

Glad that she's doing the right thing for her health, but that's pretty awful that it's gotten to that point for her at all.

Sad news for the scene in general, and foreigners in particular losing one of their few great hopes.

Scarlett AcerScarlett:

After WCS NA/GSTL I will unfortunately be taking an extensive break from Sc2 to deal with my wrist issues


Seems she will be trying to sort out some health issues that have cropped up in a lot of SC2 players over the years, starting when GSTL concludes and her participation in WCS NA this season is over. She told me it would be something like 2-6 months before she expected to be able to play seriously again.


It's only been several years. It's odd because I don't recall seeing this amount of carpal tunnel cases back in WC3 or SC : BW. I mean they did have seminars for players to make sure they're still exercising those joints after all meh.


The same players who played WC3 and BW went on to play SC2, so they have been playing the games for a long long time.


I'd like to see the ratio between the old skies and the new skies. There's definitely a lot of older skies in the mix. I know only a few KeSPA pro's were brought into the mix like Flash to name one. I really cannot recall that many complaints about their wrists in that ridiculous time period. Not well documented at least. Anyway, they should be stretching their wrists every few hours.

To be honest, I did stretch my wrists quite a bit before I got my first injury. But I didn't take many breaks afterwards. I think taking breaks is more important. Yeah, it's nice to stretch your wrists when you take a break, but a break should be a bit longer than that imho.

Are you seriously calling Scarlett a patch zerg? That term gets overused so much that its getting ridiculous. Her play has been at an incredibly high level for quite some time now. By far one of the best foreigners, personally I would say by the end it was really only second to Stephano. Was he a patch zerg too?

Hope she still has the passion and enthusiasm to come back after sorting out the injury. One of those players thats impossible to hate even when she's playing against your team and picking them off one by one. Great talent.

The way i see alot of pro gamers rest their wrists on the table is terrible. Sitting on the edge of the desk bent on a 45 degree angle.

That said i hope scarlett recovers quick.

is it even legal for a non-terran to have wrist issues?

bad jokes aside, this really sucks for her, for acer and for her fans. also of course for foreign esports. I hope she can deal quickly with her wrist problems, unlike koreans she at least can take a break without having to fear to never be relevant again.

I wish her luck for a fast regeneration and hope the extensive break is not too long

Is this the first time a player that isn't Terran announce that they have problems with their wrist?
Weird that we first hear about this now as well, the pain can't be sever if she can push until a set date.

Maybe it's not about the wrist but something else..
