Judging from his other tweet, makes one think he got sick of the haters.

Always enjoyed your games, theognis. Good luck with whatever you choose to do now.

A shame. He seemed like one of the few good upcoming American players D:

he didn't fall out, WCS NA and EU are incredibly forgiving compared to KR, everyone still gets a chance to even qualify for Premier in group stages no matter what

Good luck, theognis.

What's going on? It seems like everyday a thread pops up announcing the retirement of someone.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

It's a question of lack of results, sustainability to live, little exposure and a dying regional scene with a very bottlenecked platform.

Hmm then can't really grasp why he would retire if he did finish his degree in school? I dunno how much ROOT is supporting him but they just got a house so wouldn't see why not just move in there for a bit and see how it goes.

He posted on reddit (linked in the OP now) that it's real so seems he is retiring.

Best of luck in the future dude!
