If it wasnt for his korean english, I agree. But I would argue he actually means retirement.


Especially since Taeja tweeted "byebye" when Naniwa retired, and San tweeted "this is your future".

No more threads about twitter posts where players say they are going to retire. Only when they have retired.

Also, Taeja a bit of a drama queen.

Seriously. Even MKP has proven that retirement is often only "retirement".

So sad that he may retire "soon". But I respect his decision, he made a big name for himself and won a very good amount of money doing so. But that's 1 less great Terran playing

Really unfortunate set of events. So much money on the line, can't really blame a player for using the strongest build. Not that entertaining though

It seems to me that he doesn't enjoy the game that much, even when he wins, he is just like "meh" all the time. If that's the case, I understand that he wants to retire, but for me it would be a great loss for the scene. I will always remember the games during the summer of Taeja, his micro was so inspiring that he became my favorite player.

I like it. A lot of people like it. A lot of people on TL like bitching how they don't. To each their own.

Remember when he won and complained he couldn't win more than 10K at a time. #firstworldproblems

In the same boat. That said, there's certainly areas of the game I wish were different.

I believe him, he looks like he is in pain as soon as the game finishes and the camera goes on him. If the game is not only less enjoyable, but painful to play why put off things like school and army?

I should hope you do as well because you are in LR threads all the time I presume you are watching games, and you shouldn't be watching something so much that you don't enjoy.

San and Taeja are bros are they not? That would mean that Taeja had been intending retirement before the tournament.
