Bye bye Sniper TT;



and I will never, ever forgive you for this you asshole Sniper :I


Let me preface this by saying I am a huge Slayers fan, and very disappointed that the last GSTL had to end like that.

That being said, Eve is just being irrational. Did she expect to win? Girl should have been happy to have been given a chance to play in the GSTL to begin with.

I dislike the superficial Eve following, but I think it's a little overreaching to say that Eve was acting irrationally.

It was her team's last match, her only showing (at that point), and an embarrassing loss (especially since she had already switched from Terran to Protoss but was already registered in the league as Terran).

I think it's a little unfair to speak negatively of someone crying like that. Yeah maybe Eve could have held herself up with a little more dignity, but other players have done worse.

I hope Sniper, or any of his korean friends don't read this thread. They would probably misunderstand/misconstrue a lot of your comments.

Ironically I think this means Sniper's last televised game was his win in MVP's SPL R4 regular season match over RorO --the player who succeeded him as Code S champion.

No mention that Sniper was the player that Ryung declared to be "IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA....."? I'm disappointed in all of you...

Ryung was complaining about the crazy imbalanced zerg. I don't think Sniper was the best zerg even when he won the GSL.

Don't think you can really compare Sniper to RorO. RorO finished rank 5-6 in GSL (through the Placement Matches) the season after he won Code S. Meanwhile the season after he won, Sniper didn't make it out of the RO32 and didn't even make it into Code S next season. And RorO continued to play very well in HotS in SPL whereas Sniper kind of just fell off the map after HotS came out. Something must have happened to his mindset or practice regimen because even in GSTL in 2013, when MVP finished #1 in the regular season, they only sent him out a single time.

To sum it up...
I wonder how many of those players retiring now will come back for LotV...

He was never that good in the first place, he just had a good season that one time.
