Flash has officially announced his retirement. Flash stated that, "I`ve been happy for the last 8 years as a progamer. I'll keep my fingers crossed for this scene now and forever."


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
quotes:

"... Flash, the best SC player for 9 years of his career, intimated his intention to retire, saying "It's about time I retire from this scene." KT Rolster respects Flash's decision and has decided to accept it.

Then, he made some statement for his retirement and future plans. "As a progamer, I`ve got so much more than I deserve. It`s been long 9 years, and I won`t forget the love that my fans gave me. From now on, I`d like to travel or rest a while, thinking about future. Regardless of what I decide to do later on, I don't think I'll be putting down my keyboard and mouse."

It is known that KT Rolster is preparing for his retirement ceremony, while proceeding forward with new recruitment plans in order to fill the gap.


+ Super(KT Rolsters) and jjakji(SBENU) trades.

"Seems like the rumors were already circulated; some streaming sites offered me proposals, even before the announcement. However, I won`t do anything official until next January."

"When I told JD about my retirement, he didn't give much of a reaction. We talked about the glory days of the past rather than about an uneasy future."

Flash continues, "I am planning on joining the army in about three years. In the end, I want to do my best to give back what I have received from the eSports scene. My ultimate goal is to become the head coach of KT Rolster and make it the strongest/best team in the world."

And God leaves the reins in humanity's hands with a hope that it will all go well.

Thank you for your years of dedication, Flash. Shame it didn't end of an final, happy note.
