Who knows, may be he is waiting for Bisu and Flash to retire in order to switch to Broodwar :D But I don't think so, may be the reasons are personal or he wants to focus on GSL.

Considering the uncertain future of SC2 esports after this upcoming year and that he's likely running out of military deferments, it seems insane that he'd decide not to play in the qualifiers at least. I can understand wanting some time off, but I'm pretty sure dropping from practicing 16 hours a day to just 8 wouldn't drop his chance of qualifying to 0, so why not at least try?

There's a ton of possible reasons. He could have some personal schedule conflicts. Perhaps he want to focus on GSL. Perhaps he knows something about a possible event, we don't know yet. Perhaps he has an China-Anxiety :3
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.

Hopefully he's just busy at the time or something, But it seems strange to not even try. It's an online qualifer right? May as well give it a shot regardless
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

He saw Cure play, it scared him. I must say that so much talent, it's scary.

No offense but WESG is kind of whatever event to me. I personally don't care about it.

I guess soO wants to focus some other events.

Yah. What a waste of prize pool that is, to be completely honest. I wish that prize is used to host 2 IEMs or DreamHacks.

Rogue isn't a "faceless Korean." He has a very unique playstyle and he's been an exciting player to watch ever since he first played in ProLeague. I know you want soO to win something for once but just chill with the rage bruh. soO is statistically the most consistently good player in all of SC2 and he will certainly get a first place once he overcomes his mental block with finals.

So getting to the finals of 10 premier tournaments in the past 3 1/2 years is "mid-tier?"

from one of soO's interviews, rogue was a jerk to him and treating him poorly when they were on same team together, so yes, yes it is rogues fault. the bad guy won blizzcon and ruined the perfect cinderella story. rogue = sniper. hope he similarly falls off into irrelevance

People gotta stop speculating some BS retirement news about soO or he is broken or whatever. He skipped WESG so what? It is a whatever event. I don't even care about it personally (I think it is a joke event with a big prize pool). Not some prestigious events that soO is gonna regret missing out or anything.

He is a human like any of us. Need a break. There are quite a few important qualifiers coming up including GSL. The last time I watched his stream. He was perfectly fine. Even making fun of his 100K that he lost to Rogue by putting up a donation bar for 100K.

Looking forward to seeing him at GSL again and I'm sure he will be there.
