Today we are sad to announce that Choi "Polt" Seong Hun, a staple figure in the StarCraft scene, will be parting ways and no longer game under the CM Storm banner.

Polt has since stated in interviews that he is looking for a new team and does not plan on retiring in the foreseeable future

if he retires after WCS...
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

Either find a new team/finance everything with streaming, go back to Korea or retire.

I'm guessing this is his last year in SC2, he turns 28 this year and hasn't done his military service yet. All the best to him.
Flying on the Jin Air hype plane. Lets go Maru, Rogue, sOs and the handsome CJ herO

It's definitely his last year in foreign WCS with the military service and all.

Polt is by no means retiring. He's as dedicated as he has ever been!

Sad, I hope Polt finds a new sponsor/team soon!

Thanks to CM Storm for supporting sc2 .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
