LOL

Like StarCraft II needs more...

Was the transition from WoL to HotS like this? Mass retirements and dark future about WCS?

Interesting how it's mostly only the Koreans that would probably be at those weekend tournaments that are retiring...I'm sure the rumors of WCS have nothing to do with this whatsoever.

I will miss you MMA. GLHF

Doesn't anybody else find it strangely coincidental that a lot of Korean progamers are "retiring" due to this reason or something along those lines?

I can't be the only one who senses war or something else being foreshadowed

I am incredible sad about this, but not surprised in the least bit. MMA is a legend and I hope in some way he can stay in touch with the scene. Au revoir, sir, and GGs.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

There are some qualtiy pics found at this link. Great pics. Feels strange seeing Innovation with them though. He really fits better in the kespa environment.

Damn you military service. All the best MMA, I hope he wins HSC. No better event to go out with than this though I guess. He can meet all his teammates again and visit the team house one more time. He loves Germany .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I don't think people are retiring because of lotv. I think it's mostly because of the way scene is developing

I thought it was known already that MMA was retiring at the end of this year for a while. Am I thinking of someone else?
