What does this sentence mean? Someone help me plz, is this trying to take a shot at Zero or just saying he wanted to retire, so he didn't join any team.


Whatever gets your drama-juices flowing more, obviously.

But it just means that teams knew he was retiring before the twitter announcement.


Then I will choose to believe the drama one. The only place without drama is where nobody lives.

Retired when being in GSL and being a player with high amount of skills just like JangBi it is so sad... It means that he does not like the game and the only problem is StarCraft II... T_T

I wonder if any foreign team offers him a contract?
I doubt that JangBi, Bisu and ZerO would miss the opportunity to travel around the world and play in foreign events.
I think they see no future in Korea and there was no opportunity to contact foreign teams coz it would look incorrect to ask for something for such big players so they decided to retire.

Why? You made the assumption that I was taking a shot at ZerO which is the dumbest thing I've heard all day, which is quite the achievement since I read Youtube comments.

He probably had some foreign teams that tried to offer him a contract, but no doubt ZerO declined them due to to low salary (as ZerO probably wanted a Woongjin Stars-like salary that he had) and the 2 KeSPA teams that still actively hire players in SC2 (SKT T1 and KT) already hired a few new players lately so they probably didn't want to spend a big salary either on him at which point ZerO probably just called it quits and retired.

After Bisu, JangBi and others retiring its not a big fucking news, it's daily occurance almost.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I love zero. His game against Bisu on heartbreak ridge was the greatest thing in starcraft. So immaculate. (You know which one I'm talking about).

UMMMM, his salary with Woongjin was modest at best. Not every KeSPA player was making a whole lot you know. >_< Whether it be low-balling or asking for a pay increase his position to negotiate was meh considering he played second fiddle to SK going back to BW. Really shitty position for him nonetheless. -__-
