He seemed overjoyed with how much better Terran seems in HOTS than in WoL. That maybe a reason too since he also said it is "less stressful" to play terran in HOTS than in WoL from what I saw on his stream.

Not a huge surprise given he's been streaming the last two days and appears to be enjoying HotS

I dont think Select returning is a good move. LoL offers a lot better promise as far 0fo the future of e-sports and he should re-consider.

SeleCT wasn't doing too well with QPAD as of late, and I'm glad he's back. He will probably do much better for himself in SC2. I would've hope QPAD Red Pandas went to SC2 though haha, 2GD could've kept SeleCT on hand for publicity and also send him to DreamHacks, but I guess he doesnt want the lag from EU to NA TT

Yeah because all those retired SC2 pros that transitioned to LoL did SOOOOOO well...

SeleCT was one of the only ones with actual multi-game history and skill and even he couldn't do all that well. SC2 players skill lies in their individual play not their team coordination. Makes little sense to try and transition out of 1v1 games into team-based games and expect to do well.

Maybe he just doesn't like the game?

Welcome back Select, it's good to see one of the big names from the early days return! I hope you'll be as successful as you desire again, looking forward to see you in WCS.

Yayyy SeleCT! <3 <3
I was sad when I read that he left the Pandas, I wanted to see him do well in Dota2... But if he really returns to SC2 then I sure as hell won't complain. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is just Koreans reading QPAD statement and translating it and you translating it back, no? Or do they have a statement by SeleCT, too?

Cuz the QPAD statement doesn't confirm anything about a return.

Also, TIG never releases an article unless they've actually spoken to the player/players/team/teams involved.
