In a new interview Scarlett says she will most likely stop playing SC2 full-time next year, and that she just doesn't enjoy the game much anymore. Not a problem specific to SC2, but how she views most games. She would like to win a major tournament before this happens - hopefully at Redbull Battlegrounds.

http://www.ongamers.com/articles/scarlett-looks-for-redemption-at-redbull-battlegrounds-nyc/1100-187/

Excerpt:

What do you think about your Redbull Battlegrounds group?

At first I thought it was going to be like the other Redbull events this year - a round robin format - so I was pretty happy with my group. I felt confident against Golden, somewhat against Bomber, and not so much against Parting. Now I've it's GSL style and that I have to play Parting first, so my confidence has gone down the drain. I lost 0-3 to him at WCS Finals last year when he won. He hasn't been doing so well recently, but as I mentioned before I'm not too confident in my ZvP right now. I'm hoping to get 2nd place in the group, but I don't know about winning it. I think if it was the round-robin format I'd have a much better chance of advancing.

Is it enough for you to be the best player in North America, or do you need to be one of the best in the world?

I want to win a premier tournament on LAN before I stop playing. I don't know if I'll play full-time next year actually. I'm not the most interested in the game anymore.

Why not?

It's just getting boring playing it so much. So I may start playing part-time, start learning something else.

Is this because of of StarCraft 2 specifically, or if you had been playing Dota 2 or League of Legends these past few years, you'd be just as bored?

Yeah, any game.

Players like Scarlett and Stephano are so important for the scene. Hopefully she changes her mind. Title has been edited now but that was a really shitty and inaccurate title.

there are plenty of up and coming foreigners who have at least the same amount of potential to replace her.

Realistically, not good for the scene. But honestly, she has a much better chance next year with new WCS format. What a shame.

The article makes it actually less dramatic than Slasher's summary and excerpt, I would suggest reading the article instead of overreacting just yet.

RIP Starcraft scene in the UK. Defeated by EG money and Swedish Zergs.
