Dang. Good luck Rain.

And if this had anything to do with the new WCS, all I have to say is Blizzard is so smart.

If we believe... I mean like REALLY believe... Then ByuN exists in all our hearts.

On Topic: MAN THIS SUCKS! Rain is legit, no lie, one of my most favorite SC2 players ever! I cannot believe that when I talked to him during BlizzCon opening weekend, that that was going to be the last time I would get to talk to him within the eSports scene...

Farewell Rain... You will be heavily missed. Thank you for everything! Your rest is well deserved.

Wow I had no idea about his donation. That's really sweet.

Always loved Rain. Modelled a lot of my own Protoss play off of him. Hope he finds happiness in whatever he does.

A true champion, in every meaning possible. So long by.Sun

P.S.: and to all the silly guys who blame WCS for his retirement, go see people who donated an organ for others for a change. You can live on with 1 kidney but there is a reason you got 2 in the first place...

EDIT: ops confused liver and kidney but you get the idea.

You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Try to read before you try to write.

If you truly believe your argument, then why not first blame Kespa and their "anti-trust" rule then?

I do not deny that the WCS change is retarded but I think it is incredibly misplaced to blame it for this case and in this thread and right now.

You can read the info at the beginning of the thread. There are obviously several reasons. Rain is a great guy. And if you think about his situation, this seems to be a logical solution. I do not know, if he decided differently if any of the reasons was different. Maybe not. Maybe yes. But now, there were just too many complications in one moment.
