Noooo, he is such a great observer! He will be a big loss for GOM.

You never realize how big a role an observer can play in your enjoyment of a game until you experience a bad one.

His observing was of the best. It is a shame. I remember tastosis commented on his observing ability almost daily in their casts.

My guess: Recruited by Kespa to observe their leagues
... In life very little goes right. "Right" meaning the way one expected and the way one wanted it. One has no right to want or expect anything.

There has never been an observer as good as Legend. The number of times he's circled the mouse pointer on interesting things that Tastless and Artosis have missed is beyond count.

Legend <3 T.T;

Most people never even think about the observer unless the observer is doing a crappy job. Legend was, in my book, the very best at what he did.

Definitely sad to see this guy go.
I might be the minority on TL, but TL is the minority everywhere else.

In case, somehow, you have not watched Legend of the Swarm, the first episode is here. Click "Video 2" on the right and skip to 20:51. The series is pure gold.

Legend far and away the best observer in Sc2 History so far. Heavondom(I think that's his name?)is pretty high up there too. Adebisi is very good and some other foreigners are good as well but Legend was on a completely different level, I could watch casts with no audio and miss nothing, he not only caught almost all the action he also did a good job of highlighting key things in production or upgrades, supplies and supply blocks etc.

first retirement i'm actually mad about..

He's the only retiree that was at the top of the game. No one even came close to him.. He's the innovator.

Call me crazy, but with the head coach of Startale stepping down at the end of GSTL perhaps he's becoming the head coach and thus can't be an observer anymore.
