SBENU (T)Hack will join the Military in the next 2 weeks according to FOMOS reporter Kenzi.

Hack a well established Korean terran who has dabbled in the offline foreigner circuit as well was notable at his peak in 2011 when he was all killing FXO and winning TL TeamSpeak open tournaments.

Not sure if he will be coming back to the scene in 2 years time but he will be out of action for the next 2 years.

Does anyone else wish North Korea would just invade, get their asses kicked and cease to exist so this stuff could end?
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

It will probably mean a lot of lost lives, so no.

Well, this was to be expected, no other reason for him to not be on SBENU's roster tbh.

Still Korea has issues with China and Japan: a potential threat and an unreliable ally.

Last time I heard something about several loyal artillery troops aiming at Seoul non stop. So NK would probably lost, but we would lost our beloved Korean pro gamers too.

Is the air force still the branch of choice, or is it a longer term than the army now?

No i rather see them get along instead. But still having their own countries but with not so strict rules and laws.

And going back to topic, im going to miss Hack..i hope he will comeback after his military service

Even if the conflict becomes irrelevant Korea will still have mandatory military service. It is so entrenched in the society that even if you wished you never went you definitely will throw a huge fit about others not having to go. With Korea starting more immigration friendly policies because of their brain drain things might change, but even if reunification happened right now it is very likely that the institution will survive everyone alive today.

Air force longer than every other branch of armed service.

If SK engineers were not as lazy and had produced a fully operational starcraft marine suit, nobody would delay their military, and Hack would have left happier.

Oooooo politics in sc2 general. If you ask me, they should've bombed NKorea off the face of the earth a long time ago. What are they waiting for? NKorea to get long range nuclear capabilities. Did we not learn anything from WW2? You can't bow down to tyranny. It only understands one thing: force. The West has gotten soft. We no longer want to fight and spill blood till it's too late.

I remember Hack. Sadly, never got to know him, but a solid Terran for many years. He started sc2 on Nex, boy is that name a blast from the past.

With new WCS system Korean scene can earn more money than last year, even code A low-mid level Korean's prize pool increased so much. I don't know why everyone say this is WCS's fault. What they lost is one thing:oppotunity.

Yes, this is the most important thing.

I hope we even have a 7th team..

Legend said on twitter that SBENU has already committed to playing 2016 Proleague and that that won't change.

are you sure? sbenu seems like they are in some deeeep shit

Rough translation of what he tweeted regarding the team's situation.

looks like this is from december 27th. alot of possibly incriminating stuff that might prove the "rumors about team finances" arent exactly rumors have been made public a couple days ago. situation with sbenu seems pretty bad atm

I don't find this Hack retirement very reassuring either, neither does hearing not anything solid about a 2016 Proleague but let's hope everyone gets their shit together.

Please, I really really need Proleague..

ya exactly. hack retiring and leaving sbenu right after possibly incriminating details about sbenu surfaces is a red flag.

Legend revealed SBENU's full roster on December 1st after Super was traded for jjakji, more than 2 weeks before the whole Sonic deal got public, and Hack was already gone then. Also, 2 days later Billowy joined the team.

Therefore I conclude Hack's retirement is not connected with the Sonic thing at all.

oh i wasnt aware. i guess your right hack's stuff doesnt have much to do with it but i get the feeling team sbenu will either disband soon or they will play and a couple months later there will be news regarding unpaid salary. thats if proleague happens i guess

I always liked Hack. Had so many fun strong runs in those TL Opens, always fun seeing him play IdrA in the finals for a few months.

Bomber tweeted "See you soon" to MMA after MMA said he was joining the military sooner than expected (January 25th). Seems likely that Bomber will retire quite soon, diminishing SBENU's lineup even more
