Please read the OP properly before spreading false information... :/ Besides, having to go *next year* to military is not really a reason to stop playing the game SC2 now, hm? I'm studying but yet I play plenty of games throughout the day.  you don't retire from a hobby. Nobody's spreading false information, you are rather interpreting something in your own ways, that doesn't make it any more true though... | ||

Also complaining in a foreign language about another guy posting in a foreign language. He translated the important part, that's good enough imo. :3 | ||

SC2 is in a steady slight decline in terms of popularity and Interest. Its unavoidable that the players who dont see a strong future or at least have a huge passion for the game would want to stay just becouse they "can". Obviously if its due to something like mandatory military service, its a different story, but still. | ||

Name an Esport that will support a player without a team, without any tournament results and without good stream numbers. Go ahead. We can wait. Where did I mention Shuttle? Yes, I am aware that this thread is about Shuttle but as I'm sure you've noticed all these retirement-threads tend to have a theme these days. Its "Great stuff, scene is gonna be better, too many players atm" vs "SC2 ded gem". Both sides are too extreme, there is truth in both but whats crazy is that the "ded gem" ppl are mostly trolling while those who cite downsizing is actually dead serious. | ||

Both sides are too extreme, there is truth in both but whats crazy is that the "ded gem" ppl are mostly trolling while those who cite downsizing is actually dead serious. The trolls are pretty serious too. And the downsizing is natural, since many, but not all, of the players retiring haven't won anything or accomplished much. Right now any team less player can claim he is retiring, even if his professional career never has nothing of note. But people take these claims as some sort of evidence of the game dying. | ||
