Really should be titled

"Flash Retires From Starcraft 2"

Nice little article, regardless. I am expecting more writeups about him.

The way Flash switched from SC:BW to Starcraft II broke my heart: losing to JangBi in the last OSL and losing to Bisu in the Proleague.

Following his journey in Starcraft II was fun. He got good but never anywhere close to the greatness of his glory days. He had some good games and good showings - and some heart-breaking soul-crushing moments like overstimming against PartinG in that final game of HSC.

Wish him all the best going forward.

Standards of success in the BW pro scene are measured by fangirl obsession, Flash never was on top there.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Sad to see it, but eventually all pros have to retire. Apparently he has coaching aspirations (sorry to all the hopes of those thinking he's coming back to bw, I doubt it given his statement), so I wish him the best on his aspirations:

"ultimate dream is to make KT the world's greatest team as their head coach"
For Sure

When I started following starcraft the names were: Stork, Bisu, Jaedong and Flash.
Stork is coach, Bisu and Flash retired why Jaedong I don't know but I guess that's the end.

I'm with you man. MBCGame Hero will always be in my heart. Every time an announcement like this is made it just reminds me of the old days. I "hated" Flash, though. Jaedong will always be my favorite player, and Flash turning the tables on Jaedong will always leave me salty.

I can't even imagine what it's like for the people who were there before me.

Such an icon, crazy to think he just turned off like he did. Military service in 3 years is interesting, what can one do in that time. Coach now or after military service. Ahh so many questions, lets go TL, lets get an interview!!

Right, one would think he'd want to get it out of the way quicker.
