Most bad-ass looking pro gamer retires.
Makes me miss the old Slayers gang again.

Sad to hear it, not for the fact that he retires but more for the fact that he is forced to do so for health reasons.
Take care out there nerd !

I can't blame him for a second for his decision, but it doesn't make it any less disappointing. A lot of the 'old guard' of SC2 are starting to retire. Several big names in several days.

Gonna miss cheering for Ganzi. GL to him in the future.

Player retires because he is no longer winning and in injured. People say that SC2 is dying because player is not longer winning, is injured and retires. Standard for SC2.

Bummer, but the man must take care of himself.

Sucks Health problems always take priority though, so can't blame him of course.

Ganzi I will miss you really much. You've been one of the most awesomest programer ever. Without your injury maybe you'ld be at the top... Anyway good luck in the future.

I'm sad.

This sucks, but it is probably the best for him, if his wrists are in such a bad condition. GL in the future Ganzi.

I hope for him that he can find a job after ending his professional gaming career.
I would love if he could participate in something to teach young pro-gamer to take care of their health and particularly their wrists.

Why is it that Starcraft II is falling apart every time someone retires. Ganzi has had very few notable achievements for more than a year, and with wrist issues it's most likely not going to change.

Less competitors, smaller teams.
People just see the emphasis on people leaving rather than realizing that StarCraft is filtering its growth. Underachievers of the past are now either considering a retirement or moving onto new endeavors.

Exactly. League and Dota 2 will go through this as well. League will after this season of LCS ends and Dota 2 will do this after TI3. New stars will come in. It is the nature of all sports.
