In general it kinda sucks to have so many fan favourites out in groups already... Especially when you know some of the players who somehow scraped by a victory against them are going to promptly get 3-0d by Serral or uThermal anyway. | ||

One of the greatest personality in sc2 world. Always kind and pleasent. He was just a normal guy, what is a rarity. I don't usually care about retirements, but it is third, after Life's and Flash's, which is quite a pain :/ | ||

The playstyles in lotv with the additional workers, more bases and balance changes is vastly different and considering all his transition was better than some others. Jens you will be missed. | ||

Thank you, Snute, for your awesome games, your keen analysis, your charismatic presence. From the clever baneling bombs (while still on GL), to the meticulous swarmhost games, to the relentless hydra busts. Your wise words on stream, and at the homestory cups. You can be proud! | ||

Good luck for the future, hope to be seeing you sometimes on Twitch. On another note: How can it be, that there is no official announcement of the retirement of such a great player on the official team liquid pro site? They post literally about everything there (Bromances? Really?). But if an accomplished player leaves the team ... nothing. Was it really such a surprise? Sorry for ranting but I find it kind of sad, that it seems that the team games dominate the official blog and when someone as accomplished as Snute leaves there is not even a thank you or something =( Oh, and just as an idea: In football/soccer if a great player leaves his team or goes into retirement, the team organizes sometimes a showmatch as a farewell. How about a little online tournament or so with one or two casters. And if someone wants to donate money, it goes to some kind of charity or so. Or do it without the money and just for the fun of it. "Farewell to Snute" sounds cool to me. Edit: Just saw that Taeja will be playing for Crank's SC2 team league ... is it a coincidence? I think not! Taeja for Snute-Farewell-Tournament incoming ;-) | ||

I am certain you will be succesful in everything you put your mind to now, the combination of work ethics, skill and charisma will get you far everywhere. | ||

Over the years ive witnessed dozens of retirement announcements in various esports and the comeback rate is ~ close above 90% within 6-12 months of announcements. About 10% actually graduate from uni in any kind of decent time and get a job of their field. People are lazy in general and simply dont like traditional 8 hour jobs and vastly under estimate how much most of the jobs suck. Usually pay correlates with stress and responsibiliy too. Snute may have a higher chance of succeeding than most others tho  | ||

League is undoubtedly the eye of the typhoon for now, tho even with this understanding it does suck that the Liquid boys don't get a proper send off. They did it for Taeja, but why Snute doesn't get the same amount of respect beats me. | ||

I would guess his actual retirement will come at the end of the year, after HSC 18, if he want to go back to school he need to wait until the start of a new semester anyway (unless he's already back at the uni?), there's maybe some contract thing with TL but I can't see them giving him much problem. | ||

Snute is maybe THE liquid foreigner (besides TLO) and one of the top 5 sc2 foreigners of all time. Always consistent, good mannered and a role model in sportsmanship. I cant imagine liquid letting him go without giving him the final applause he deserves. | ||

Hi starcraft friends ^.^ Sorry for the absence and not posting anywhere online for a long while- Some of you might know already but lately I've grown gradually fatigued from competitive SC2. I tried taking some time off from sc and the Internet in general the last months to see if it would get any better. Going back to playing a lot of SC2 hasn't felt right, physically and mentally, even if was easy before. So I've been on a hiatus doing things outside of SC trying to rest up and figure things out. Long story short I decided on not aiming for Blizzcon or attending all the events in 2019 like before. At the same time it's not like I'll quit absolutely everything SC. But it probably won't be the same globetrotter journey with Blizzcon as the goal going forward. Team Liquid has been very supportive regardless of whether I would keep competing or not. The long-term plan is to attend university next autumn (more computer stuff!) while continuing with streaming and gaming. I'll keep you updated on what happens! I've been fortunate to live an amazing pro-gamer life, playing in different places all around the world, with so many fantastic memories to look back on, with tons of support and love. Thanks for making SC2 such a wonderful scene to be part of for so long <3 Despite not competing this time around, I was fortunate to be invited to HomeStory Cup as a guest - I'll be on the couch enjoying my favorite tournament and casting a little ^.^ feel free to tune in to and support one of the absolute best tournaments of the year at https://twitch.tv/taketv - it is live right now and will be every day this weekend! Once again sorry for being missing for so long and thanks for all the love and support throughout the years, at tournaments, on stream, here online and elsewhere. <3 src: https://www.facebook.com/LiquidSnute/posts/1979925092075426 | ||
