Just checked twitter and saw that Petraeus is stepping back from full time sc2. Apparently he is going to AUT University. He will be participating in WCS but in his own words

"I'll continue to play part-time and compete in WCS of course, but I won't be returning in a full-time capacity."


Sad, as hes an incredible player and definitely one of my top favorite foreigners.

I think the answer involves very little sleep and partying.

Yeah I can't imagine Polt getting wasted every weekend and slummin' it with some babes. Though I could be wrong...

Just different priorities I guess.

The question i have is, If Kane does something and then doesn't tweet about it, did it really happen?

Oh believe me, there's TONS that happens that I can't tweet about. If you look at my tweets they're mostly concerning Starcraft

How did Stephano manage to win tournaments without practicing a single minute? Everyone is different and some players are good and some players completely suck. Stephano was one of those players who never had to practiced and still raped the shit out of scrubs.

Good for him, and with his move back to SEA he should be able to keep a WCS seed as long as he wants it.

Stephano played a lot, when he "retired" and started playing part time, he couldn't win shit. "Stephano doesn't practice" is a myth.

Kind of surprised Pet is going to university, I thought he had dropped out of high school
