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

MMA/ForGG/Polt/Bomber/Curious all announced their retirements earlier this year...



Inorite? There can be many reasons for players to retire that are irrelevant to the game or scene itself. It's so silly for some people to associate retirements with whatever they're currently feeling passhun about.

I know MMA wanted to reach higher before retiring, but he really has accomplished a great deal and I'm sure he can walk away satisfied. GL to your future endeavors, MMA. <3

Dude what has his retirement to do with the balace? Almost everyone knew he will retire this year. Even Olimoley said it on the stream 3 weeks ago. Dont know why almost everyone here is saying, his retirement has to do with the transition from Hots to Lotv.
Well because of his win vs Mvp in GSL final in Blizzcon 2011, I started to watch e-sports. Since then he was my favourite player. Well sad that he wont play for another year. But at least we can watch him in HSC.

Now this is a player I care about! MMA is a fucking legend. The crowd shouting "MMA MMA" on an MLG was one of first foreign tournaments I ever watched. How he played back then can be now viewed as pretty standard, but in his time, it was a revolution, the determination to out-zerg the zerg by being everywhere at once.

Like StarCraft II needs more...

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


Oh for fucks sake. Retirements happen every end of the season. This particular retirement also isn't unexpected. MMA practically announced it a year ago. He has had a long career and his military service is coming up.

And what dark future of WCS? Everyone who actually knows something seems to consider it a positive. How about we wait till we also actually know something? All the rest is idiocy and bleating of the sheep.

Wait... since when is Terran the currently super underpowered race did I miss something?

And very sad to see MMA go, I really loved when he got back into ro4 GSL after going back to Korea, showing that he still had it in him!
My heroes: Jangbi, Bisu, Stork and BeSt for BW, Rain, Zest and Stats for SC2! Need a better Signature tbh...

Can't say I'm surprised. He mentioned retiring even when he was the runner up at Blizzcon. Taeja, MVP, MMA, Bomber, and ForGG to a lesser extent. My poor terran heart. At least we still have Polt from the great WOL terrans. For now...
