I understand why you are upset, but why cant you try to understand why hes getting his hopes up?

if he ain't happy he'll find something else to do, if that something else is streaming BW on afreeca then so be it.

Flash doesn't seem to like SC2, I give it 6 months before we get him back.

It's pretty reasonable, I don't feel like it's a retirement from esports forever and ever, the dude just wants to go on vacation, see his family/friends and soulsearch a bit from the sound of things. Whether or not he plays either starcrafts or ends up managing/coaching/anything is up in the air, again from the sound of things.

Of course Korean announcements are always constructed to hide one's shame and save face. Hopefully, his passion for progaming really is strong.

Not if his salary is still 6 digits.

Dont feel bad Lorning. For when the world of sc2 breaks the last team left will be Prime. What is dead may never die.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

With the disbanding of Airforce ACE and STX Soul, KaL had no team to go back to. Even while doing his service, KaL had not lost his passion for progaming. As soon as he was discharged, he joined Prime right away and fulfilled that passion.


guess SC2 wore out his passion

Not to be rude, but it kind of makes sense. Good luck to him regardless of what he will be doing, if we are lucky we might see him playing some Bw.

Every time an old STX player retires just feels horrible. I was really happy with his first match in Proleague, but I guess he simply couldn't keep up. Well, it's probably for the best.

I hope he figures out what he wants to do next, and enjoys the break away as he has earned it that's for sure.

It's unfortunate though, he seemed to come out really strong and then fell off a bit. I feel like he could've been a really strong player in SC2, maybe once he takes a break has "passion" will be restored once again. He is obviously very skilled and a Coaching position honestly wouldn't be that bad for him, I think he would do well in that. But if he does decide to try his hand at the progamming life, I think after this break he will succeed!
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.

From his age and the fact that he already did his time in the military, I'm guessing he's going to get a real job and not be a full-time BW streamer.
