I'm a terrible person but I never liked MKP and I wish he would switch to Dota 2 (the superior MOBA) so we could all watch him lose and cry again.

Grubby? Polt? Moon? All the WC3 peeps.


Are you talking about SC2? Grubby hasn't really been performing that well, and Moon didn't do anything at all.

Anyways, best of luck to MKP; may he have many successful second place finishes in LoL!

This doesn't surprise me in the slightest, and I say that as a fan of his. Right now, just a few feet away from me, on my wall, I have an autographed picture of MKP, right next to my autographed picture of BoxeR ... and yeah I'm really not surprised by this news at all. It hurts me to admit it but MKP just couldn't compete anymore for whatever reason. He honestly hasn't adapted well to the changes in the game, whether he just lost interest or he couldn't adapt for whatever reason, some limitation with himself, he really fell off.

I wish he didn't ... His Terran play, when he was in his prime, was always very entertaining to watch. But hey it happens. I wish MVP and BoxeR didn't develop health issues, but it happens. If I'm completely honest I actually didn't even know that he was still playing games professionally because I haven't seen him or heard about him in what feels like ages. :/

I supported him and prime by buying merchandise, and I wish him all the best and I hope he's successful, but sadly I won't be able to watch him because I just can't get into watching League for whatever reason.

Well the consensus here is that he's gonna fail in LoL right? In any case, I think everyone's already come to terms with it and it definitely look like MKP needed a mental break. Here's to hoping he comes back to SC2 eventually and doesn't get stuck in Fruitdealer-limbo.

MarineKing gave us suicidal nuke, and Moon gave us an interesting case study on baneling land mine tactics.

Good luck to both of them.

Don't get me wrong, MarineKing is/was my favorite sc2 player of all time (right with Mvp), and Moon for his ridiculous skill at WC3

I feel bad for all his fans

Players really should go to dota if they want another game in Korea, the lol scene is crazy hard to break into.

Haven't seen him play in forever so no big lose, as the game gets older more and more players will disappear even the great ones.

sC - FAILED and returned but now is switching back to LoL
Min - FAILED and vanished from existence
Brave - FAILED and vanished from existence
Grape - SUCCEEDED and is a starter for a major Korean team

Why does it seem like the first idea of a Korean who starts slumping is to switch to LoL and it so far never worked?
