I remember briefly meeting Bomber at a barcraft event in Seattle what feels like a lifetime ago. Nice guy. Congrats on the long (albeit interrupted) career; hoping for all the best in his next stage.

he used to be a pretty solid Terran once. Sad to see him retire but he can't produce them results that he was once producing so I understand.
Don't practice until you can get it right, practice until you can't get it wrong.

It makes me wonder what exactly is the reason some notable players are able to come back to top level of play after years of hiatus (Byun, DRG, Parting come to mind) and some fail to do so despite seemingly putting the effort in (Bomber, MMA, maybe Taeja).

Sad to see Bomber go, but I completely understand his decision.

I can't believe this thread doesn't have more commenters. Just found out Bomber retired from seeing so in the Cheeseadelphia group stage update.

Well he has been mediocre at best for the 2 years, since he came Back. So this wasn t realy shooking

Out of the 6 GSL seasons in 2019 and 2020, he failed to qualify in 2019 S1, 2019 S2 and 2020 S2. In the 3 Seasons, he actually made it to Code S, he won a total of a single Map.
In the Chinese Team League he also wasn t pulling his own weigth and struggled even against a lot of Chinese player not named TIME

I simply missed it.

Not so surprising again, but still another great player leaving for good

He was and still is such a legend, can't imagine golden era of SC2 without him. GL! Maybe he should give a shot to BW.

I would say its sad to see him go but he really hasn't produced any results recently. I was a fan since long ago, he has always played very unique and peculiar build orders!

Bomber gave some the best WOL era games. Coming back miraculously from huge disadvantage, team all-kill, huge MMM ball, all so exciting to watch. Best of luck Bomber! Hope your life after sc2 is as successful!

Clearly you've never been a fan boy. You should see my Bisu stash.

Here's a taste.

On topic: Bomber had insane macro in WoL. It's a shame we couldn't see his skillset translate into LoTV.

Mass marine medivac and sometimes tanks no longer as viable as he could pull off it in WOL and HOTS?
Or maybe he could not keep up with the multitasking? To be honest Bomber was insanely good but I do not remember his apm being the fastest. He also relied on hitting certain timings a lot.
