weird
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Would be interesting to know why the game isnt for him anymore. For me personally the game died with the latest expansion. Maybe he was unsatisfied with the direction of the game aswell and had the past SC2 feeling in mind when returning.

I'm sure you can find some of his quotes about it when he was playing Heroes. One thing he brought up then was how he liked playing with his brother (understandable) and the team aspect made it more like a comradeship I guess? Then again when he ditched Heroes he said he didn't like how the team aspect marginalized your individual contribution towards the final results and a solo-game like Starcraft was more gratifying. So take that for what you will.

what the heck? then why did he join liquid in the first place?

i mean since his so-called 'comeback', its not like he has done something.

he didn't stream and rarely participated in ANY tournaments (afaik this dreamhack was like the second tourney he was in?)

Not a fan of players that retire and unretire all the time or announce big comeback just to whine about the game 2 months later, foreign scene is harder than ever it looks like

How fickle.

I feel like this kind of situation/attitude from players is a good reason to dismiss esports or not take it seriously. Not as a whole, of course, but this does kind of seem like a "kids playing games" kind of thing as opposed to professionals in a competitive environment.

Of course, this is nothing compared to a certain little French boy who enjoys playing video games.
When you came along so righteous with a new national hate, so convincing is the ardor of war and of men, it's harder to breathe than to believe you're a friend. The wars at home, the wars abroad, all soaked in blood and lies and fraud.

He was on their Heroes team. Then he switched over to SC2 but remained on Liquid.

True, hes was so close to replace TaeJa and HerO with the most tournament wins under the liquid banner.

I have no respect for players that leave just because they don't perform anymore *cough hots cough* then switch games to farm money then come back and play 2 months serious and then discover oh i can't play just a bit and still get good money and then talk shit about the game sorry vortix no wonder i never liked u wont be missed. What a waste of talent

Nothing, really, he never came back to SC2 like Vortix did. He played Heroes for Liqud and then retired (for school, I think?) while Vortix moved to SC2.

Wow, talk about not going out in style. He'll forever be remembered as the guy who quit after loosing to Billy the Kid... Hope Liquid signs Reynor instead (if he is interested that is).
