We see it, you just ignore it and decided to focus on the negativity instead... Just look at the EU scene! Its strongly positive!

Granted that I'm going ahead of the current turn of events with this, but;

Maybe SC2 will carry on in other regions, but it's definately already in the noose in Korea. And with Korea vanishing and becoming a sunken Starcraft-atlantis, none of the other regions are going to feel significant in terms of skill anyway. I already to an extent have this feeling with the Brood War vs. SC2, now it's going to be complete with the greatest portion of the SC2 proscene feeding the worms.

Gl ZerO, thank you for all your games =(

My favourite player of all time. Zero doesn't belong to SC2. I'm happy he's retiring. If he streams, his charm and his cute little face will bring all the balloons to the yard. I'm only sad that Soulkey and Zero have to split up.

Let's see some infested terrans, my prince!

Korea is similar to how it's always been except that KeSPA added 200 progamers, who had no say in the matter themselves. For most of them BW, not SC2, was the game of their life. These players that have had such long careers already in the game of their choice, were added to an ecosystem that already had problems supporting the ESF teams. It gets a little tiring to explain it over and over but none of this indicates that the Korean scene is able to support less than before. It always supported ~100 living in pro houses on little to no salary, not ~300 of which many well paid athletes.

What? Are you crazy? The Korean scene is already waaay oversaturated and you want even more players? Ofc it's sad to see people retiring all the time, but it really shouldn't be surprising. Oh and it actually has nothing to do with Sc2 dying.

I would add bisu to that list. I hope zero can continue gaming after this he's too talented to not be.

I'm not saying it isn't sad that so many BW "legends" are retiring, but this has absolutely nothing to do with "SC2 is dying". Like Nazgul said, there are so many progamers in Korea as in Europe altogether... and many of them are progamers for 10 years, so it's not very surprising and really not so bad that some of 'em are retiring. Lets open the gates for new blood...!

This game made me an instant ZerO fan:

Won't ever forget it... hope to see you pick up BW again, ZerO, I really do.
They're coming to get you, Barbara.
