Damn, this is the only "Player retires" thread that actually hit me.

Flash is such an inspiration for Starcraft esports. It really sucks to see him step down.

No! God effin' dammit! Worst news ever.... Though I guess (strong emphasis) he has a right to decide his own future.

He can play BW for fan-service, maybe once or twice.

tho I do not assume that he`ll return to BW

Well maybe it's just my emotions that don't let me understand the decision, like.. he can and explain me his reasons himself and I still wouldn't understand

I was so happy because we are finally on December with means GSL and PL soon.. Oh this one is gonna hit hard again the first day of PL T_T

There are some of us (seems Flash included) that really just don't enjoy LotV. It feels like such a big step away from what makes a Starcraft game great. Lot's of people are enjoying the change of pace, but I know there are some like me who just haven't enjoyed playing LotV at all.


I'm completely with you on this. I just hate LOTV to the core and switched to BW. Having fun there, at lest, it was not spoiled by the likes of David Kim and his "Viewer first" philosophy.

Honestly I really thought LotV will fit quite well into Flash's playing style. Such a shame.
Wish him the best.

Congratz Blizz and DK. Now who gonna play your LotV, who needs it? Ahahaha no words. Even best player IRL refused that pile of crap.

Welcome aboard God. About fucking time to continue BW saga. Bring back the real game!

OMG, good chances Flash returns to BW, streaming games on afreeca!

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

HYPE

I haven't been up with recent results, but I feel like he kinda stagnated. He was rather uneventful. So much hype around this guy, just didn't live up to into sc2.

Damn, Flash. Funny to think when I first heard of him, many people here (self included!) didnt like him bc he was the cheesy terran who knocked out Bisu and then lost. Boy were we all wrong. Thanks for the memories amigo

With due all respect that is the funnest joke I ever heard.

Legacy of the Void is everything that FlaSh does not play.

He likes greedy macro style into defensive strategy and positional plays.

Legacy is about expansions dying out fast and dancing units with active abilities with 0 positional play and worker massacre. I was not surprised by his decision at all.

Noooooo....But now who's fans will I troll? Oh wait...Lilbow....yeah

Seriously though it is sad to see him go, even if I think in terms of SC2 he was vastly overrated because of what he did in BW.
