https://ting.com/blog/alex-neeb-sunderhaft-leaves-ting-after-six-incredible-years/

In particular, Neeb's statement makes it seem like he's stepping away from Starcraft II


I am extremely appreciative of all the support Ting has offered me over the years. When I was picked up in 2016, I never would have imagined our relationship lasting so long. That is thanks to Ting and, in particular, my manager Jesse. They have been accommodating and responsive from day one, creating an environment where I could grow as a professional player while not being held back by any trivial issues. Through Ting’s backing I was able to win KeSPA Cup in 2016, collect three of four WCS trophies in 2017, and make my great GSL run in 2018. Even as my career cooled off, they continued to support me the best that they could.

It was a pleasure to represent Ting on all these stages around the world. As I consider a return to studying and with it less of a focus on StarCraft II, it makes sense to end our journey together. I’d like to wish Ting and Jesse the absolute best going forward – they undoubtedly deserve it. Lastly, I’d like to extend my appreciation to all the fans who discovered Ting or gave Ting a try because of me. It is because of you that StarCraft II eSports continues to live on.

Probably not a full retirement, more like, if he has time to play, fine but if not, he won't miss it either.

Who can step up in his boots in the near future is the question mark
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

Aw man!

It was such a journey to when I first read about Scvarlett hyping Neeb as a new God and then seing it all happen.

GG WP to neeb! He was truly a trailblazer for foreigners.

I think Neeb is still as skilled as he was when he was winning before the Serral era. I think, like all other Protoss, he was unable to overcome the rise in strength of the Zerg race.

He didn't play a single cup/tournament for almost 2 months prior to Katowice, so this has been some time in the making

He can probably make an extra 30-40 k$ next year without to much practice, I'm sure we'll see him in the EPT pro tour.

But, still a bit sad to see Ting and Neeb part way, it has been a great partnership!

It would be cool if he would stream when he has time while he's in school.
Skill is relative.

The first casualty of thenew patch.

Joke joke. At some point you need to look to life outside of Starcraft, so whatever he decides I wish him luck
