Been keeping an eye on these twitters for more announcements but nothing yet.


Why is Killer's twitter ID still col_killer?

I don't think he uses twitter much. He hasn't tweeted since May.

Poor Duckdeok, Blizzard may have failed you, but I won't.

Yeah, I really don't understand this.
The decision must have come from a personal standpoint rather than a professional one. I'm pretty sure he was doing quite fine on the professional end.

quite sad to see a player retire, especially when he had a pretty solid year

Damn, he was doing so well but I guess it's gonna be hard for non-fan favourites outside Korea so it probs make sense. Thanks for all the good games!

this is rather unfortunate for the scene. I thought it was a great storyline to see a brand new rising star over the course of the year. Him paying his own way to a tourney and then winning it was amazing(i forget which tourney it was but it awesome). Good luck DUCKDUCK!!!!!!

Disappointing considering he beat Innovation in Blizzcon and nice to see a player who also cheeses and all ins a lot with protoss (in the current time) but there are likely reasons we don't know and maybe it's for the best. Best of luck to Duckdeok!
