I wouldn't blame WCS 2016 for every retirement. It is the end of the year, contracts are ending. It is normal that most players retire at that time of the year. And some people like Rain already made up their decision to retire before anything about WCS was announced.

uhuh Rain Fantasy and Flash retiring. Sad days for Sc2, glorious day for BW. Don't let the "im gonna do my military" announcement fool you. They all said it before going full afreeca.

wow, so sad, I has just started following him since BlizzCon this year. I just expecting to see more from him since he's so talented and he is so young, too.

Even so, what choice is left to Korean players who cannot return to KeSPA? They are effectively stranded.

First Flash and now Fantasy. This is some motherfucking bullshit, I tell you that.

Fanta is the perfect candidate tho. Invested everything on oversea tournaments after leaving SKT, got decent results and reached his goal of going to blizzcon.

And that have been forbidden to him so that Hydra and Polt can get way richer.

Best of luck to FanTasy, I really hope we get some new young players coming through to replace the ones that retire but it seems like many of the younger gamer in Korea are playing games like LoL rather than SC2.

Sadly this is true but the only guys that can't return to KeSPA are Rain, Fantasy and Parting. Even though I really like all of them you can't change the whole WCS system because of them. And like i said before, officialy Rain's decision was not affected by the WCS announcement.

I could imagine that similar to Rain Fantasy already made up his decision to retire when he left SKT but I obviously don't know. Would be really nice to have the fomos interview translated so we maybe get some answers.

Says he's not sure if he'll play SC1 but he'll go into the army next year. Right now he's studying English...

And also that he's sorry to give SC2 fans more bad news these days >_< with his retiring as well.
