Daily esports has confirmed that (Z)CoCa has retired.

After starting his SC2 career on team ZeNEX, CoCa saw his career take off after joining team SlayerS where he achieved second place at MLG Raleigh 2011 and reached two Code S quarterfinals.

An unfortunate scandal with ByuN in the ESV weekly saw his career become derailed, after which he never fully recovered. After a period of poor results in StarCraft 2, CoCa attempted to switch to League of Legends alongside former teammate Puzzle. He returned to StarCraft 2 and joined Team 8 (later Jin Air Green Wings), after failing to find much success in LoL.

I hope JinAir will announce / do something for hit, a sad end for his career.

I asked him if he was still playing SC2 since he wasn't in Jin Air line ups and bench for SPL round 2, the screenshot is his answer

He was on such a hot streak, before in Code S and after in GSTL... the SlayerS drama, it really killed him

I just don't understand. CoCa comes out pre-season, destroys Stats in a legit game, then never gets played in Proleague again. I mean I understand team inhouse rankings, but goddamn. Give him a chance atleast Jin Air.

Sorry I just doubled posted, just passionate about this

Have you considered that it maybe could have been his OWN decision to quit?
Today I didn't even have to use my AK, I gotta say it was a good day.

Fuckkkkkk He looked so strong in Proleague preseason. If the decision to retire was all his own then I have no problems, but if it's because Jin Air refused to play him, he didn't make Code S, and obviously there was no way he could go to an international tournament then I'M HEATED

Ah this sucks, but probably the right decision seeing as a certain person pretty much destroyed his career when he had arguably the strongest ZvP at the time. Rebounded ok and would be able to compete, but he is not the same:/ Good player wish him the best.

Pretty sure it was CoCa's decision to go along with the matchfixing, no? He could have declined.

It's too bad he was that stupid back then... really liked him. Best of luck to him in his future endeavors.

Puzzle played Go4Sc2 yesterday, I don´t think, that he retired.

Sad thing about Coca though, he always had very enjoyable games, especially in Raleigh. And then that thing had to happen...
