I wanted Flash to be as dominent in SC2 as in BW really badly, but it just wasnt ment to happen. He definitely had a good SC2 career, I believe he goes down as one of the better SC2 players in korea but whether its cause the games are a bit to different or his motivation not being the same he just never was able to capture a major title. Flash is the reason I got invested into the BW scene, it was like watching Tiger Woods in his prime, complete dominance, Flash was untouchable during his stretch of 6 major finals in a row. I sometimes wonder what would have been if SC2 never got released, or lets say only now got released now, how many more OSL/MSLs would he have had. On the other hand I think its good since a lot of new people to esports got to learn and still see one of the greats play. Had SC2 not come out only a fraction of people would know and love Flash the way I do, so im happy about that. He may not have lived up to the hype in SC2 but when its all said and done he is still the greatest SC player of all time.

Not too surprised given his lack of results in SC2. Always found him to be overrated. I wonder if he's going to play Broodwar like the others before he goes to the army.

Soooooo sad, so incredibly sad. I had hoped LotV could be a fresh start for him... I'm really deeply sad and shocked, did not expect this at all.

This makes me super sad...

But, if Jaedong retires, I might be done.

I want need him at the top just one more time...
