Immediately after being knocked out in the Ro16 of DH Valencia, Vortix has announced he will retire from SC2 once again.

Doesn't sound like the best mindset..

I'm still really happy for Reynor, btw someone should make him a fan club

What? Did not expect this at all :/. Too bad.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I think he lost motivation after losing to more dedicated players.

That's, uh.. Huh. I don't know.

I was kinda happy he came back, but then he didn't really do anything.

Just seems strange and lackluster? Whatever, I guess.

I kinda expected to see him retire if he didn't perform in valencia, we didn't see him for months and he didn't even try wcs challenger a couple weeks ago.
This comeback started with promising results but in the end it just looks silly.

Gl to him anyway, wherever life takes him ^^
