and you are forced to be only with this new girl.
She has more money, wears top modern clothes and its all fancy, but ... it feels different... it feels that something is missing.
You end up with a girl that light no flame of passion in you, torturing ur soul day by day. Until you realise that she's just artifical replacement to your true love and you give up the futile relationship.


I'm sorry i have to ask but who are thoses girls ?

Also i real like your metaphore

Just found them on Google and bringing 'em here, no mutual relationship involved.


Oh ok. The first one is really beautifull.

Hahaha pretty much. Except that you are being kind of mean. I mean the current SC2 pros felt the same thing for SC2 as the BW players felt for BW and then they were forced to change ''girls''. I assume that the majority of old KESPA players don't really like SC2 that much.

Even though it sucks when a programer retires, it also makes me happy as fuck
I just love to see when progamers realize it's time to take a new step at their lives

It saddens me when I see previously successfull progamers not being able to leave the scene and become something like a coach of a meaningless team in a meaningless game

All the luck to you Best, you always seemed to me like someone who will be successfull at whatever you choose to do with your life

lol what are you saying. They stay in the e-sports scene because that's what they love to do its the same as you see former basketball stars being a coach, actors being producers directors etc. It doesn't matter if the team they are coaching suck, its just that they also want to help the pro gamers, since they have been on their shoes before.

I wonder what you mean by "meaningless game". Also Best isn't taking some different step career or life wise - he's joining the military like he's required to do. He may well come back to sc2 afterwards and be one of those coaches whom you deride so much.
