I would assume that he has saved up money during his career or maybe he just gave it all to his parents. Which is the dumb Korean thing to do imo. | ||

Despite my skills improving, my motivation and interest in the game fell. should be Because my Starcraft 2 skills were not improving, my motivation and interest in the game fell. So basically he meant the opposite. | ||

They are too young anyway. Most teenagers can't spend that much money wisely, it is for the best. They need them for the future education to find a good job later. | ||

I can understand how he feels too. From his perspective, and all those progamers who are quitting, I can understand. Blizzard should pay attention... But they won't. When is that custom game-mode that changes everything going to come out? | ||

Even if sc2 was as good as bw some would still retire because they lost motivation, weren't interested in the game, etc. Not much you can do about it, not to surprised he retired since I never saw him play in proleague had a feeling he was retiring. He was pretty good, but yeah he definitely wasn't enjoying sc2 like some of the other pro's who switched that's for sure. | ||

Maybe you'll find it . | ||

I think Blizzard will assume that same thing I do, that LiquidSeas has had a long Progaming career and decided he wanted a change in his life. It is pretty clear from the interview that he desired more free time. With modern progamming involving a ton of travel, who can be shocked by his decision? Being on a plane for 16 hours sounds like the worst thing in the world Seriously, are people going to post this nonsense every time a player moves on from progamming? Of all of the reasons people move on to new phases in their lives, why is Blizzard the catalyst for all of their decisions? | ||

It's a shame, a damn shame that Sea has retired, but I'm sure leading a progamer life isn';t easy and after 9 years it's probably best to start looking into something else. Especially if you're not motivated to do it. Obscene practice hours and small amounts of free time must suck if you don't like doing what you're doing. | ||

If only he had switched at the start of HOTS...at least it would have been more enjoyable. Wouldn't be any different for him, both WoL and HotS are/were/would be new games for him. | ||

Wasn't for the marketing-driven expansions, I would bet many other people would be retiring rightnow. Thanks for everything Sea! I wasn't around during PoS times, but I sure enjoyed your games when you were on MBC!! Please stream some BW here on TL whenever you feel like it! | ||
