This is such an insult to the fans.. What a way to find out you favorite player was retired. No wonder the Koreans are seen as faceless moneygrabbers in the sc2 scene!

Btw im not a Sniper fan, but if i was i would be pissed off.


Moneygrabbers? What?

Man... I really liked Sniper. Best of luck to him in the military.
Hopefully, he'll become like, the #1 sniper in the Korean military or something.


Maybe he'll beat the most popular sniper in the finals of some in-house competition to determine who gets to go undercover in North Korea and thus disappoint everyone?

Either that, or he finds some female sniper on the other team, defeats her, she cries, and the legend continues even outside of SC2.

I don't think he's the most forgettable GSL champion ever. I watched that GSL live because it was in my time zone, and Hyun had so much goddamn hype around him (I believe he was still undefeated in Fight Club).

Wanna know the most forgettable GSL champion ever? (Z)RorO. It was the second ZvZ finals in a row, so hype was pretty low, and most people were off watching HotS beta streams anyway, or watching the GSTL preseason because that was played in HotS rather than WoL. I remember that Symbol was in the finals, but I literally had to look up who he lost to. It didn't help that at the time most Kespa players didn't have the same SC2 history around them that ESF players did. The only other thing I remembered RorO for prior to his GSL win is getting knocked out by Idra in the WCS global finals 2012. And then the next season was HotS, and everyone was talking about Innovation.

Nooo, dark sniper has gone. He was always a good cheap proleague pick at one point too. Hope he has success in whatever he does

Injustice never dies. It just goes MIA
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.
