I'm sad to hear about this since he was my favorite host but I'm glad he's already found another position that (I assume) he will be happier with. Good luck, ReDeYe!!

Oh well. This sucks. No two ways about it. Wonder who's going to be replacing him.

I just hope his replacement is someone he would approve of. Sucks taking a new job when you know your replacement sucks.

Feels like your screwing all the other people you care about if you are leaving them with a schmuck.

Not that you expect them to step in and be better (in which case one probably should of left earlier), just when it's obvious they will never be competent, let alone as good.

The fact that there are literally no negative comments about ReDeYe in this thread, like there are in any other retirement/stepping-down thread, is clearly indicative of how great he is. I'm still scared that he might go to CS:GO or something instead of Gfinity.

Too bad. He was by far the best host in eSports. I wonder who will take up his role for ESL; it'll be daunting task to follow up ReDeYe.


Exactly. I hope he will stay with SC2.
There are no boundaries, that's the final conclusion.

Bummer, I really liked him as a host. And that says something, as I don't like hosts in general.
I hope he at least goes to something interesting if not another SC2 organization.

It's not like Gfinity is a Starcraft-only tournament brand. They've made a very major, quite long-term commitment to a variety of esports. This year alone, Gfinity's esports arena is hosting 30 live events between SC2, CS:GO, Hearthstone, COD, and FIFA.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Well I was talking about being a host only for Gfinity's SC2 events. I don't think we've seen hosts cover different games at a same event in the past, did we?

Redeye is a lot more than your average ESL employee, it isnt that good of a sign when the first officer leaves the ship.
He is also right, esports has grown a lot while he was there.

Kinda makes me wonder if ESL isnt going through some problems

He has been on the mic for over 13 years, he deserves a change of direction and some rest.

He was one of the few people whom I've liked from the moment they entered the scene.

Really big loss for a scene that seems to be disappearing more quickly every day.

Wow, two really bad news in just two days...
First Dreamhack toned down SC2 from 6 events to three, and now Paul is leaving as well??

I'm going to cry.

Half of WCS popularity has just gone overboard.
