You have the mindset of a champion, that counts for a lot.

I still remember your FPVODs of terran from a long time ago in BW. They helped me immensely back then, and since then, I had been cheering for you as a darkhorse in every tournament.

Glad you're happy with where you're going, regardless of what it is. Good luck merz!

YES thank you for those because of you I achieved C rank on iCCup !

If you go through life like you did through progaming, im sure you will be a sucessful person.

Good luck with the rest of your life Merz!

You lived the dream that so many of us here have had at one point. I hope to see you around the scene still!

Even though I enjoy playing Protoss, a good Terran makes my day.

I remember watching your FPVODs back in the day, and it really helped me on the BW iCCup ladder. I would catch your games whenever I could when I heard you went pro. I don't even really watch/play StarCraft anymore, but I recognize how positive of an effect you were here on TL (over on the old Strat forums). Thanks for the memories.

Best of luck in your future endeavors, schooling, career, and in life.

Great post Merz! You were always one of my favorite players, I still remember seeing the first rep of you in bw probably in 2008 or something, "Holy shit it's possible for a non korean to have 400apm?"

Seems like more and more Terran players quitting these days. It's not a coincidence.

This was such a great parting message. I wish I had payed more attention to your presence while you were around, but there is one game I'll never forget, which you'd never have remembered: a 2v2 I played against you. A high masters zerg with tons of WC3 background, it's very rare that anyone gets the better of me in micromanagement and skirmishing. But you did, and for once I wasn't even mad about a loss. Oh, it sucked. But there was little to make of it other than the respect I had for the way you'd just played around me. I still appreciate the sensations I experienced from that, and will always respect your skill.

I can, through the emotion that I am experiencing at the time of this sentence, express a sadness for your departure from us in the capacity as a talented player. While you may rightly identify yourself as average among the above average, I should hope that you never forget that you were truly above average. As a top m asters player, I'm in the top 1% of the playing community. And what did I, or will I ever have on you? Not much, man. Not much.

Wishing you the best in whatever you do next in life

Having confidence in you comes easily, to me. <3

Got to say I've been reading and watching your interviews / blogs for a long time and I think you really will succeed in life, since you always seemed to have a realistic outlook on life in general.

At least you tried it and at least you were a part of something great. That can never be taken away from you.

Best of luck and lots of respect

Oh.. and I hope, you'll perhaps continue to write blogs at times. I've always enjoyed reading it.

I could write a post as long as yours to comment it. But I wont, it should be too long. Good luck, and more than everything else have fun in your life. It was good to see you play at time.

Never underestimate how many people enjoyed your games, even though you might have not been the most successful progamer in the history of SC2. Thank you for that, and the best of luck for you studies/future!!!
