Taeja announced a while ago that Blizzcon would be his last tournament until recently where he stated that will also be playing in HSC, DH Winter and IEM world championship. He has just confirmed on his twitch chat that he will now play in GSl, but he hasn't said if he will play for more than one season since IEM will be played at around March which is when Code S season 1 would start.

Taeja has also confirmed that he will not play in proleague.

Mod Edit: At HSC Taeja stated that he wished to enter military service however there were no positions for the first intake of the year. He will continue to play SC2 until he is able to do his military service.

Well he said he'll be playing in IEM WC so maybe he's only playing one season.

One day Liquid will pay him mechanical wrists and he will be able to reign upon the SC2 scene without mercy

I wonder if surgery is an option.

You severely underestimate the length of time it takes to recover from surgery.

His dominance is sadly dependent on number of 1st-place-10k tournaments. I really hope it's possible to fix his wrists and keep him playing for years to come.

Better than not having it and playing anyway.

While I am very happy that Taeja will continue playing SC2. His antics of retiring every year does get annoying...

Why can't he make up his mind?

Im really glad, but next time he announces retirement i will not believe XD
Ha, i was almost rooting for him in blizzcon since it was supposed to be his last big tournament
Even streaming right now ^^
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

We've newsed this thread, but please update the OP with relevant information (context, other relevant statements etc.). A single picture with nothing else attached is a very barebones thread that we normally don't like on TL.

If his retirement/unretirement is linked to his wrists, then you can't really blame him tbh. He probably choses according to how his wrists are going
