I liked his videos, but it does not even mildly imply "the game is dead" like the OP suggests.

Could you guys please read my first post carefully and stop posting such stupid comments like this. I never said the game was/is dead wtf . He was a very helpful person to a lot of community members so I think this deserves a little bit attention. I cant think oft any other guide that was mentioned/linked so often (besides day9) if someone neede help with mechanics. And the pure marine build was just a training for mechanics he also made other stuff.


All of that is true, but if you didn't want your post to be received as whiny you shouldn't have ended it with "If a player that relied purely on mechanics and teached others to use this mechanics quits cause he doesnt have fun doing it anymore , then this is a bad thing."

Are you trying to troll or do you have poor reading skills? This was definetly NOT how my post ended , neither it was the last line.


I am deeply sorry, it was not the last line. That doesn't change anything though.

The second part of the interview video makes him seem butthurt about not getting the recognition he feels he deserves. I don't know any of his work so I can't comment on it.

Why do half of you have to be arrogant pricks about this..... Show the guy some respect its sad to see just 1 person leave sc2 be it Bronze - GM or Pro because its a loss in the community that is felt on ladder whether you want to believe it or not.... So get off your high horse and just atleast be halfway decent about this.

Its sad to see someone that has contributed to the eSports / SC2 community leave best wishes on your future endeavors.

Sad to hear he's done, his video guides were awesome in WoL. I probably referred a good dozen people to watch his videos when they asked me for help with macro, and a lot of them improved because of it.

Thanks for your contribution to the community, FIlterSC, and gl hf in your future endeavors.

I can't speak for all pricks, but I am being an arrogant prick towards the OP and not Filter and have made that as clear as I can. The OP is using Filter's quitting for making statements of his own and that's more prickish than the reactions imo.

I'd like to think the TL community is always a growing family the dude feels sad about losing part of that "family" let him express his feeling a little... even if they are a little bias toward something or a misconception.....

never listened to his stuff before until today, but he sounds like a really good guy. esports is an exceedingly difficult industry to all-in on. barring the commentary on race balance his reasons for quitting sc2 make a lot of sense, esp blizzard's response to lalush's vid. i like how honest he is with self-criticism and how well he controls his bitterness.

filter i hope you can take solace in the fact that there are hundreds of people who've done a lot of work for the sc community for free just because it was fun. there is merit just in doing something you really enjoy and trying your best at it. i guess it really complicates things if you want/need to make money off of it, but thankfully during the beginning years there was simply no option for monetizing starcraft, so we never really had to deal with that stress. must be really discouraging.

anyhow, wish you the best in whatever you pursue. if you are just playing for fun now, maybe try out brood war? it's immensely rewarding/unbelievably frustrating. so actually yeah maybe don't try brood war LOL

They are a response to the OP being whiny about the reason why Filter quit. They have little to do with Filter himself.

Every negative reaction (including mine) is to OP, not Filter.

I don't care about the shitty comments in here, Filter produced great videos and seems to be a great guy in general, I'm very thankful for the content he provided and it brought me a lot of enjoyment.

Thank you also to all others who feel sad about this and wrote a nice reaction. I edited my OP a bit after asking a mod about this. I made the Thread right after watching the video so I guess I "overreacted" a bit.

Really enjoyed his videos series Bronze to Masters and whilst the pro scene probably wont notice him going the average joe trying to improve in the game will. I hope life works out for him as his tone of voice in that video sounded very emotional

I really do think people need to realize that SC2 is not a sport and has missed its window of opportunity to be one. There are very few making money from this scene, the sponsorship and the viewer base simply isnt there.


Good luck to Filter and his future endeavours

Guy quits with a balance whine after getting worse at the game over time. It used to be a joke among zerg and protoss in master that it was almost impossible to find a manner terran to practice with. Plenty of nice high master/gm or diamond terrans. From his video, it looks like he was a victim of that. I wish op wouldn't take his balance whine so seriously.

What's wrong with the OP post? He was just giving some thoughts.. I swear, every thread I see you charge in, berating the OP for whatever reason.

I wish Filter the best, sounds like he has plans for school and stuff in the future, that's awesome, good luck to you sir if you are reading!

I really like his series. It helped me get to masters as Terran (although I ended up changing my builds in tvt and against zerg). The focus on mechanics and economy was key and I liked that he provided clear benchmarks regarding what you should have at particular times during the game. I don't care at all for all of the balance whining though. It's really tedious. In any event GL to you Filter and thanks for all of the content.
